SINGAPORE – “My late father looks like me.”
With this limited information, a Singaporean hopes to locate his step-siblings in Malaysia.
Muhd Imran, 43, said he was made to understand that his late father had two wives in Malaysia, and his mother, a Singaporean, was the third.
The search by the father of two, who has a twin brother, began in Ramadan this year.
“I want to find my siblings in Malaysia. I fear if our children happen to get married to each other,” he told Bernama.
He said his late father, a Malaysian, was a “British police” in the Cantonment here in the 1960s.
“(My late father) was better known as ‘Cpl Yusof’ or ‘Yusop’,” said Imran, who was informed about his father’s passing when he was 21.
He said people around him are “hesitant” to share details on his late father, adding that his own birth certificate does not carry the latter’s name.
“My father used to live on Race Course Road and in Lorong Kuaman with my late mother, Saniah Marzuki. He also had a sister, but I do not know her name.”
Imran and his twin are the only children to their parents, who got married in Malaysia in the late 1970s.
“I only saw my father in a photo years ago.”
Imran, who lost his mother in November 2010, is appealing to Malaysians and Singaporeans with information to contact him at +65-8383-2716. – Bernama, December 27, 2020
