Messages from friends and family
No words can emphasize the lost of a great human. The corporate world has lost a great leader, the sport world had lost a great sportsman, the humanitarian circle has lost a great supporter, countless people had lost a great friend. Those who are closed to him have lost a great motivator. He is known to be a mover and shaker with a big heart. He legacies will live on in the hearts of countless whose life have been touched by his generosity and unassuming nature. I thanks God for giving us a hero. We are celebrating the life of a great human who achieved greatness for the better of humanity. Do not be sad for this great lost be happy that he had lived. Thanks all well wishers.

Causes and Charity
About Magical Light Foundation
We are a non-religious, non-profit organisation that aims to help those who cannot help themselves. By doing so, we aim to bring hope, peace and warmth to people in need everywhere. That way, we give the disenfranchised and the underprivileged a chance to shape new meaning in their lives.
It all started in June 2012.
We learnt about the plight of countless refugees and displaced children based at the northern region of Thailand. Marginalised by politics and poverty, they are stranded with little, or nothing at all, in a foreign land. This prompted us to start a foundation in Chiang Mai to help rebuild their lives.
Hence, the Magical Light Foundation was formed.
We are proud to be the FIRST Singaporean Foundation registered in Thailand.
Cecil was the most fervent supporter of Magical Light Foundation
Light of hope for the poor and displaced

His brother, a businessman (sic: Cecil Cheong) , had been one of Mr Cheong’s(sic: Ben Cheong) most fervent supporters. A few days before his death, he had donated to yet another of Mr Cheong’s Myanmar schools. All donations from his wake are to be channelled towards children’s education under Magical Light Foundation.
Speaking in a voice full of emotion, Mr Cheong said: “We had the same belief in helping others whenever we could, no questions asked. He has always been an important pillar in my life.”
“His last message to me was ‘Don’t worry Ben, I’m fighting. I won’t give up so easily.’
“I won’t give up either.”
