SINGAPORE – The family of a missing elderly woman suffering from dementia is seeking the public’s help in locating her.

Madam Siew Pek Chun, 72, was last seen leaving the Queens condo at 10 Stirling Road around 2 p.m. Sunday (October 4).

She has been missing for four days, said her 20-year-old granddaughter Adele Lim.

Ms Lim, a student, added that her grandmother had been diagnosed with mild dementia in July and was not allowed to leave the flat alone.

Madame Siew left her home on Sunday after saying she would take a walk down the stairs. At the time, the 1.57m tall woman was wearing an oversized light blue T-shirt, black pants and open-toed sandals.

He was carrying a blue bag and had no money, ID, ez-link card, or keys.

He has no known close contacts after his dementia worsened.

“My mother saw her go and quickly changed her clothes to try to catch her, but the elevator doors closed,” Ms. Lim said.

By the time her mother followed her into the next elevator, Madame Siew was nowhere to be found.

Police confirmed that a report was filed and investigations are ongoing.

Madam Siew was allegedly seen by members of the public around Block 59 on Dawson Road around 9 p.m. on Tuesday (October 6) evening.

He used to frequent the Queenstown area near the Queens condo, his former residence at 115 Jalan Bukit Merah, Bugis Kwan Im Temple, and places in Chinatown including People’s Park, Chinatown Complex, and Chinatown Point.

Previously, Madame Siew wandered away on July 15, but was found that night.
