Deepest Condolences
4 January 2008 Friday | 17:37 | -

It took a while before everyone could accept this. The fact that MC King, a familiar figure on TV drama and variety shows has left us for good.

In the limited span of time, the media have gathered that Jimmy Nah aka MC King was hospitalised this morning and passed away at 1pm.

Yongmei, Love 972 DJ, who had worked closely with him on radio was at the mortuary earlier and is deeply saddened.

I had the opportunity of hosting an outdoor show with MC King late last year and immediately struck by his personality. Because the show was pretty straight forward, we had an enjoyable time talking backstage. And I thought we did pretty well on the stage, although it was the first time I was standing next to him.

“来来来,大哥,你请你请。你先开始,我配合你就是了。。。”

“933DJ,你不要浆leh。。。”

As I was about to embark on the trip to Turkey, I sought his advice on “tour leading”, and he egged me to try Turkish baths and Turkish coffee, and assured me not to be nervous when facing so many new faces on the trip. We exchanged mobile numbers and linked up on Facebook shortly after that. His cheerfulness was evident even online.

The last I saw MC King was yesterday. He was in the carpark while I was driving out of MediaCorp. Because I was in a hurry and he was engrossed on the phone, I didn’t stop to wind down the window to shout my new year greetings…

I hope he is in a happier place right now. Goodbye, MC King. :(

    I couldnt believe it!

    I felt very sad of his news when Evonne told me about it. I couldnt believe it! He’s a very great comedian actor and his laughter has brought our life a lot of humour. His departure has lost everyone’s heart. May he rest in peace.

    Hope he is in a happier place right now.

    Hi MC King,

    Hope you can finally leave all burden behind and rest in peace.

    We will miss your frankness, your comical face and acting.

    40yrs old is actually too young age to go.

    But hope the place you are now in is better than on earth

    i think maybe the heaven want him, bcoz the heaven lack of actors, have no choice to look for actors in reallife, and he lucky to be chosen it quite a happy new

    i think is this reason is bcoz he is so healthy and dun have any illness, but why he suddenly die, so weird, and this might be the reason above
