Barely a year into his new job as an engineer, former army officer Robin Chua died last Sunday (April 28) after collapsing at work.  The 43-year-old, who was married with a four-year-old son, left the army in 2023 after 20 years to work at his family's electrical engineering company. His rank was lieutenant colonel.  Chua's sister told Shin Min Daily News that her brother fainted at about 2pm that day. A colleague performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation on him and was able to revive him.  Others around them called an ambulance to take Chua to the hospital. However, he fell unconscious enroute to the hospital and paramedics were unable to revive him. Chua was pronounced dead upon arrival. His family was told by doctors that his cause of death was cardiac arrest.  «He was a good son and brother. Family was always very important to him, and he would always be the first to help whenever there were problems at home,» said Chua's sister.  She added that their family did not have a history of heart disease, but her brother was a smoker.  Chua's sudden death also came as a shock to his former colleagues in the army.  Read more
