Today, 26th Oct 2008, Ahmad Ibrahim's cousin, Mr Ismail Ashary came to visit me. I showed him the photos of 'Ahmad Ibrahim' in the book 'The Last Kampung Mosque in Singapore' and he confirmed that those photos (contributed by Edward Hammer) are NOT of Ahmad Ibrahim, his cousin and former Minister for Health and Labour.
(Ashary and Ibrahim are siblings).
Mistaken identity of Ahmad Ibrahim's photos in the book "The Last Kampung Mosque in Singapore". This blog was first created on 12th July 2008 in memory of Mr Ahmad Ibrahim and to reveal the mistakes found in the book "The Last Kampung Mosque in Singapore".
Mr Ahmad Ibrahim, former Minister for Health and Labour

Mr Ahmad Ibrahim, former Minister for Health and Labour. Jalan Ahmad Ibrahim, Masjid Ahmad Ibrahim, Ahmad Ibrahim Primary School, Ahmad Ibrahim Secondary School were named after him
About Me

- Kamal Abu Serah - seeking justice
- When I first look at the photos of Ahmad Ibrahim (ex-Minister) on page 54 of the book "The Last Kampung Mosque in Singapore - The Extraordinary Story and Legacy of Sembawang", I knew it was wrong. I wrote to the book writer to inform her of the mistake. The book writer, Dr Hadijah claimed that the photos are correct based on the verification from people like Hj Suppien and Kassim Selamat. I 'closed' the case and don't want to pursue the matter. Then, Ahmad Ibrahim's eldest son, Mr Mudzlan Bin Ahmad came and visited me. I showed him the photos and Mr Mudzlan claimed that the photos are NOT of his father. When I write again to Dr Hadijah, she insist the photos are correct. Since the book writer nor the book publisher don't want to acknowledge the mistake, I specially created this blog for the purpose of informing the public of the mistake found in the book "The Last Kampung Mosque in Singapore - The Extraordinary Story and Legacy of Sembawang".
