SINGAPORE: Tower Transit Singapore has paid tribute to its employee, whose body was found on Mar 30 after a collision between a pleasure craft and a supply vessel near the Southern Islands.<\/p>\n
The man, identified as Chua Muhammad Syafidi, was reported missing after the Mar 27 incident.<\/p>\n
In a Facebook post on Sunday (Apr 5), Tower Transit said about 100 staff members gathered to bid farewell to Syafidi.<\/p>\n
Syafidi had worked at the company for 10 years.<\/p>\n
“Through dedication and hard work, he rose from vehicle technician to engineering supervisor,” Tower Transit said.<\/p>\n
“He was a talented and creative engineer who loved to learn and grow.”<\/p>\n
The bus operator added that Syafidi had just completed a part-time diploma in operations and engineering management, and was looking forward to his graduation ceremony on May 5.<\/p>\n
Tower Transit paid tribute to his “creative spirit”, noting that his “most visible legacy” is a life-sized replica bus he built from scratch, now holding a “place of honour” in the Bulim Bus Depot lobby.<\/p>\n
“But he will be remembered most for the kindness he showed his colleagues, his readiness to lend a hand, and his ever-present smile,” it said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“Tower Transit Singapore offers our deepest condolences and support to Syafidi\u2019s wife, children and relatives.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
