Heartfelt Search for Long-Lost Father in Singapore
Date: May 29, 2025
In a poignant appeal for help, a person is searching for their biological father, Mr. Lau Kim Wah, who is believed to be living in Singapore. Born on March 20, 1938, Mr. Lau, also known as Kau Keng Wah, has been out of contact for 36 years, leaving his child with a deep longing for reconnection.
The searcher, currently residing in Taiwan, recalls being taken back by their mother when they were very young, after which all communication ceased. Mr. Lau was previously the owner of Lau Keng Wah Furniture Manufacturer, a business that has since closed. The family is thought to have lived in the East Coast area, possibly at Bayshore Park Apartments.
In a heartfelt message shared online, the searcher expressed their desire to know if Mr. Lau is well, stating that even a brief message would provide immense closure. They are urging anyone with information about Mr. Lau to come forward, emphasizing that even the smallest lead could be invaluable.
The message:
“尋找父親｜Looking for My Father — Last Known in Singapore
Hello, I’m currently searching for my biological father, Mr. Lau Kim Wah, possibly spelled Kau Keng Wah,
born on March 20, 1938, now about 87 years old, and believed to have lived in Singapore for most of his life.
We have been separated for 36 years, with no contact since I was very young.
At that time, my mother brought me back alone to Taiwan, and my parents were never legally married. Over the years, we completely lost contact—but I have never stopped thinking about him.
He used to run a furniture business named Lau Keng Wah Furniture Manufacturer, which is now defunct.
Company listing:

We might have lived in the East Coast area of Singapore, possibly at Bayshore Park Apartments.
All I wish now is to know if he is still well. Even hearing just one word from him would bring immense closure and peace to my heart.
 If you’ve ever known him, worked with him, or have any information, please contact me.
Even the smallest lead would mean so much.”
