Singapore Funeral Association Visits Xiao En

Bound by a shared dedication to the same field, our connection with The Association of Funeral Directors Singapore (AFD Singapore) began years ago across borders. In 2024, a life education seminar in Singapore rekindled that relationship — and this time, it led to a heartfelt reunion at Xiao En Centre.

We were deeply honored to welcome AFD Singapore for this meaningful exchange, inspired by one of the association’s core missions: “to engage internationally and elevate the profession to global standards.” It is a spirit we deeply admire — one that values learning, connection, and mutual respect.

With life as the core and respect as the foundation, the visit offered our guests a first-hand look at the real frontlines of how we help families say their final goodbyes with dignity and care. The dialogue extended beyond operations and processes; it touched on the heart of funeral service — the empathy, attentiveness, and humanity that define the work of every Life Practitioner.

A roundtable discussion followed, returning to the essence and purpose of our profession — life education. Through this cross-border exchange, what emerged was not only a sharing of expertise, but also a resonance of values, bridging two nations through compassion and a shared commitment to honor life.
