At the grand old age of 97, Mr Tan Kok Sing (known as ‘Chen Bo’ to many) is an inspiration for an active lifestyle. Known as the oldest skydiver in Singapore, he parachuted from a plane in Australia to celebrate his 90th birthday.
Chen Bo founded the Tiong Bahru Garden Joggers (TBGJ) in 1977 to help teenagers kick bad habits like glue sniffing and started to promote marathons in the community. In 2017, he donated $100,000 to the One Team Singapore Fund, in TBGJ’s name. His aim was to support elite Singapore athletes so that they may reach their fullest potential and bring glory to Singapore.
