THIS PAGE BELONGS TO OUR DAUGHTER BONG YIN SIET

Our daughter Yin Siet was born in December 1988 at the Panaga Hospital in Brunei Darussalam exactly ten years after the World's first test-tube baby, Louise Brown, was born in England in 1978. Yin Siet's birth was particularly significant as she is one of the earliest IVF (test-tube) babies born in Borneo. She is the result of our second IVF attempt. This was done at the National University Hospital (NUH) in Singapore.

Yin Siet is everything we had ever wanted and we waited a long long time for her arrival.

Please refer to the article written in September 1989 'From Borneo Bulletin' (double click link on the left) for more information about our early experiences with IVF.
