 Yeoh Saw Kin’s son Tom Latham and his wife Julia were down from England and she hosted a lunch for them and invited some family members.

Dr Tom Latham is a consultant haematologist while Julia is a family law barrister. They met each other online in 2016.

They both lived in the same city and after an exchange of photos they met at the pub several weeks later. They married in 2020 during the time of Covid and a rule that limited the number of persons at gatherings. As such their reception was postponed and is planned to be held later this year.  

The lunch was at Rojak & Cendol shop at Ipoh Padang in Old Town. Present at the lunch were Yeoh Saw Kin, Tom and Julia Latham, Yeoh Chee Pui with Yeoh Pang Yao and Chew Chooi Min, Mrs Yeoh Lam Seng with Yeoh Pang Hong and Yeoh Chooi Wen and Saw Kin’s friend from church Mr Ting.
