SINGAPORE: All 200 seats for an event to pay tribute to late Singaporean actor Aloysius Pang have apparently been snapped up.An online registration set up by NoonTalk Media, which is run by Pang’s manager Dasmond Koh, is no longer accepting reservations. Pang died at age 28 in January after sustaining serious injuries during a Singapore Armed Forces training exercise in New Zealand. Pang, who was on reservist duty, was crushed between the gun barrel and cabin while carrying out maintenance work in a Singapore Self-Propelled Howitzer. Two soldiers were given fines recently by a military court for their roles in Pang’s death. On Thursday, Koh announced on NoonTalk Media’s Instagram page that a small memorial would be held in its office on Jan 5.
