[00:00:15]And of course when you grow up in Katong, you become very acclimatized to the mixed cultural diversity.

[00:00:23]And because of my background, theater background, and music, dance, and drama, it's the best avenue to use theater as a form of promoting our arts.

And we both three of us we sat together and said, "You know, maybe we should start start something new, right?" And it's really not only just about singing, it's about living a healthy lifestyle, active aging, [music] and also about the young and old bonding blending together. It's so fun when you are a little older, but you still know how to enjoy life. Laugh.
