Family members understandably worry when their loved ones go missing, and especially so if they’re frail and aged.

On Monday (16 Dec) afternoon, 2 senior citizens reportedly went missing in the southwestern region of Singapore.

Singapore Police Force (SPF) is currently seeking information on their whereabouts and have taken to Twitter to spread the word.

Based on the SPF’s description, the ah ma was wearing a black floral shirt, jeans, and pink shoe.

She stands at around 1.6m tall, is of a slim built and has short grey hair.

We can’t confirm if the woman in the Facebook post and that on the SPF’s Twitter feed are the same person, but is likely the case, given the similar time and location that they were last seen.

We’ve reached out to the Facebook user for clarifications.
