Visiting sister in Klang

Tan added that her mother, who is from Jerantut, Pahang, was in Klang to visit her sister and had retired in June 2025 from running a hardware store.

During her visit, both of them had also gone to the hospital for a routine examination.

Her aunt had moved to Klang so that her son could attend Kwang Hua Private School.

Tan said, "We collect the remains of my mother and my aunt today (May 16) and send them back to Jerantut for a funeral," and added that she had been left heartbroken as she was now separated forever from her mother.
