M'sian couple who died in motorcycle-truck collision on 2nd Link worked in S'pore for 20 years, leave behind 3 children

The couple that died after their motorcycle collided with a truck on the Tuas Second Link Bridge on Jun. 5 have been working in Singapore for two decades.

The accident occurred at around 9:30pm, approximately 600m away from the Tuas Checkpoint exit bridge, near the Malaysian border.

Tham Khin Peng, 55, and Lim Ah Bit, 54, worked as a food delivery driver and a restaurant server, respectively, 8world reported.

The pair would commute daily between Singapore and Malaysia for work.

They leave behind three children aged 12, 18 and 21.

These details were given to 8world by a Malaysian towing service, Sin Mah Bike Towing, who shared that the family was not well off.

Personnel from Sin Mah Bike Towing were originally dispatched to the site of the accident, and the company subsequently posted a missing person notice on their Facebook page in hopes of contacting Tham and Lim's next-of-kin.

Their funeral service was held on Jun. 7, and the couple was cremated on Jun. 8.
