About Me

My photo
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".

Verification email response from Ahmad Ibrahim's son, Mr Marzukhi Bin Ahmad

Wa'alaikumsalam saudara Kamal,

Upon scrutinization of 5 photos emailed, sad to say that none matches that of my late father. I could clearly recall all pictures of him though I was still very young then. Do allow me to reconfirm to you and those connected in the publishing of the 5 photos that those said photos are never that of his. I must say that I really treasure and value your interest holding the truth.

Yours sincerely,
Abg Marzukhi Ahmad.
