A Malaysian woman drowned in a swimming pool at her condo despite an elderly neighbour's attempts to rescue her. Her family, who were in Singapore to retrieve her body, expressed their appreciation to the neighbour for his bravery and hoped that he would not feel guilty about her death. The incident happened at Fernwood Towers, a condo located in Marine Parade on Oct 21. The deceased is Yang Si-yi (transliteration), a 37-year-old engineer from Penang. She had been working as an engineer in Singapore for over 10 years prior to her death, according to her eldest brother, Yang Si-wei, in an interview with 8world. No foul play suspected: Police Si-yi's family flew to Singapore on Oct 23 to retrieve her body. The police reportedly provided them with CCTV footage of the drowning, from the moment she entered the pool to when she was carried out of the pool. Si-yi's neighbour, a 70-year-old man who lives on the same floor, had tried to rescue her multiple times but to no avail.
