In Touch

A Monthly Curated Newsletter

In this issue, I'd like to do something different. All of the highlights are very interesting videos from TED talks about the way we think. The videos are between 15 to 30 minutes, but they are well worth your time I promise. Hope these resources will help create marginal changes in your life every so often. Let's be enlightened together!

Erwin Wong. Supply Chain Planner.

I've been friends with Diana since the early 2000s, and she reached out to assist in planning for my financial needs when I entered the workforce. All through the stations of my life, Diana has offered sound advice and recommendations in making financial plans for my present and future. She has done so with her wealth of skills, experiences and expertise gained in the industry. Her accolades are a testament to her talent, ability and hard work put in as a financial consultant, but when we meet to catch up on life or to do regular financial reviews, we do so as long-time friends. This makes the friendship even more heartwarming, because Diana is someone that I would trust this important aspect of my life with.

Minhao Wong. Account Manager. Chevron Oronite Pte Ltd

When I knew Diana through a mutual friend, she had already come with many years of experience in the industry. Diana was able to quickly identify the right policies and solutions that suit my lifestyle and family's needs. She was able to provide insightful advice that helped me understand the importance of building a portfolio to help support my children's future education needs. She will also help me navigate any paper work and claims processes whenever there is a need. Diana would also regularly check in with me to update on our situation. Over the years, she has become a reliable support. I am glad to say that she is now a personal friend that I will recommend to anyone who needs her expertise.

Kerin Chiok. Manager. Akira Corporation Pte Ltd

Diana has been my financial consultant since 2009, and ever since then, she has helped me plan and build up my financial portfolio for my future needs. As a financial consultant, she is very passionate in what she does and takes great pride in her job. With her deep knowledge and focus on the well-being of her clients, she is willing to spend significant time and energy to ensure that I am well covered at all times. As the years progressed, she is not only just a financial consultant to me, she is also a friend whom I can trust. I would readily recommend her service to my family members and friends.

Chia Han Keong. Senior Editor. Yahoo! Asia Pacific

Diana has worked tirelessly to come up with helpful plans for my financial needs. She exhibits a deep knowledge of her profession due to her long experience in her job, and provides relevant answers to my financial queries. I came away with a much better knowledge of how to manage my finance after my discussions with Diana.

Danny Chew. Senior Operations Executive. OUB Centre Limited

Diana has been a great financial adviser and friend for the past decade. Since the first time I met up with her for the first financial review, Diana has shown the commitment of looking for positive ways to better my coverage, financial growth and retirement needs. Other than the quarterly meetups to review my coverage, there are also the constant sharing of market changes and updates of new plans Prudential has to offer. In the years of providing her expertise, she has been showing her in-depth understanding of financial planning. Along with a good listening ear, she has been recommending products to address my concerns. Unlike other financial planners, Diana is not pushy and does not focus on selling policies. Thanks to her recommendations, I am able to increase my coverage for the possible emergencies one can face in life, better my expected financial status at retirement and set my mind at ease should I ever meet with an unexpected situation. I look forward to the many more decades to come with Diana as my financial adviser.

Candy Chan. Executive Secretary. GuocoLand

Diana was introduced to me by a friend a year ago. Diana is very professional in her work and had provided very valuable advice for my retirement planning. I have benefited from her professional and excellent services and will continue to seek her in every investment opportunity that arises.
