Firstly, I would like to say a big "THANK YOU" to Emil because one of his songs had saved my future. My story goes like this............

In 1994, I mixed with a bad company of friends and my school results were decelerating. I was turning from bad to worse and I did not go home after school. We always loiter around and retunred home in the late evening. I almost failed all my subjects. There was once, I got a terrible scolding from my parents and they told me to do something about it before I regret/ruin my future. At that particular moment, I felt very sorry for them and I was so depressed that I locked myself in my bedroom and turned on one of the Singapore Radio Station (YES 933) and it was playing a new song < QI SHI BU XIANG ZOU - Actually I don't want to go> sang by Emil. I was so touched by Emil's warmth and passionate voice that tears were rolling down from my eyes.

From then I like that song so much that I persuaded my elder sister to buy the album for me because at that time I was only 10 years old which I don't have so much money to purchase that CD. However, she promised to buy me that CD provided that I stopped seeing my bad company of friends. Of course, I agreed with her decision as I like that song very much. So, I gave up on my friendship and decided to turn over a new leaf. Everyday, I went home immediately after school to listen to that CD as well as to buck up on my studies. My school grades improved tremendously. Without this song, I don't think I will success today. Thanks Emil !

From that day onwards(mid of 1994), I became a fan of Emil and I collect all his CDs, posters, articles, photos and all other stuffs that are related to him.

The first time I saw Emil was at Heeren (Singapore). He was promoting one of his album and I also joined the queue for his unique signature. I found that he is very friendly and delightful. He even thank me for supporting him.

In 1995, my elder brother promised to treat me to Emil's Concert at Singapore Indoor Stadium provided that I passed my major examination with flying colours. Surely, I put in my very best effort to study so that I get to go to the concert. However, I was successfully promoted to the next grade and get to go to the concert. That was the first time I went to Emil's concert. It was really wonderful !

In 1997, I also went to Emil's Super World Tour concert with my partner. The concert was really amazing, marvellous and unforgettable.

On 5-12-1999, I went to Emil's mini concert too! It was so exciting that we actually sang a birthday song to Emil and he was smiling all the way. ( What a CHEERFUL singer! :)) The last time I saw Emil was on the 1-4-2000. He was performing for a charity show (NKF). It was held at a open space at Orchard Road (Singapore). It was fun because he actually joked around with the audience. He was really macho that day!

I will never regret being a fan of Emil Chau. He is a talented, friendly, cheerful and macho singer. Besides that, he is also a well-mannered man, good husband and a caring daddy etc.............I will never feel bored listening to Emil's songs. I really want to thank Emil for saving my future.

I certainly hope that Emil can read this story personally because I declared that the above story is a true life account.

Specially for Emil: All the best to whatever you do and I will always be your fan.

Hope you will in Singapore soon! Thank you Emil !
