A Monthly Curated Newsletter

As humans, we often like to think we're right, even when we can be wrong at times. Many of us have the unconscious tendency to seek information that support our existing beliefs & disregard or undermine those that do not match ours. But doing so without awareness or questioning can have adverse effects in the way we think, make decisions & live our lives. Today, I'd like to share with you some potential consequences of confirmation bias & what we can do about them.

To Amazon billionaire and world’s richest man, Jeff Bezos, this phrase is extremely true. He believes one single trait distinguishes highly intelligent people from all over people: the ability to reassess and change their minds.

Sharon Eng, Administrator (To 20 years before (I think!), and 30 years more.

I cannot remember when I started with Jacqueline but I will focus on the recent years. She has been nothing but heartfelt during my cancer stint. Her concern for her customers always stem from her heart. Her tenacity to make sure we are well taken care of in times of personal needs goes beyond selling insurance. When my father passed in 2022, Jacqueline was again there for me, helping me sort out insurance issues with the hospital so I can focus on the living and giving me time to grieve. Once again in later 2022, I had to go through a minor surgery and she took it upon herself to find me a suitable surgeon and followed through with claims and her personal touch of “after care”. I have more memories of how she touched my heart but I will save them for future testimonials. Agents are a dime plenty, but it is AIA’s honour to have someone like Jacqueline on their team. Thank you Jacqueline.

Cavis Tan, Producer (Client since 2011)

My husband is Jacqueline's friend for more than 30 years and I was introduce to her after and has been a client for more than 12 years and counting. Thank you for all your patient assistance during the state of confusion and helping us bundle everything together. Insurance is a very time consuming task and you helped put us at ease to the best plans. Most agents wouldn’t answer a phone call on a beautiful Saturday morning or wee hours of night when my kids are in the A&E department and i will be calling Jacqueline on these “special hours” for her advise. We appreciate your experience and expertise to help the family save money on the policies towards our needs. You are more than measured up to the “5 Star” rating. I will highly recommend you and your company to others for their insurance needs.

Angie Phua, Founder of Aglamoras Beauty Sg (Client since 2019)

Thank you Jacq! Known Jacqueline since 2018. As I'm always skeptical over life insurance and I only had certain coverages over my medical. She explained to me what is needed and she would base on my comfortable budget and needs to recommend what is the best for me. Thus, over the years. Relationship eventually grew between us and we are just like good friends and does not even felt like she was my agent. I would not hesitate to recommend my friends to her. I just wanna say thank u Jacqueline for everything and keep up to ur good work and you are the best!!!

Candy, Andy & Family (Client since 2014)

Jiajia is my husband’s childhood friend. I’ve known her for close to 20 years and she has been our trustworthy insurance agent for about 10 years. Although she just started with AIA when I first got to know her, she has never tried selling anything to me. We only approached her when we were expecting our first child. Ever since, she has been promptly answering queries, efficiently handling our claims and diligently updating us with the changes in policy terms. Whenever we are faced with issues, she will always be there ready to help and giving us assurance. She will reiterate, “Anything, just call. No matter how late, just call.’ She also ensures that we are adequately covered within our means. Her experience and professionalism is indisputable. She always uphold herself with pride and integrity. We are so blessed and thankful to have her as a close friend and taking care of our policies. Jiajia is the BEST!!

Irene, Kenny & Family, Business Owner (Client since 2006)

Jacqueline or rather Jia, I prefer to call her. We been friends for 30 over years and she has been my agent for more than 20 years. She helped me with my financial investments and the investments done, have helped me to claim my 1st title deed from HDB. When we started our family, we entrusted her with our all our insurances for our family. Not saying this because she is friend but she has done many things beyond what a friend or agent can or have done. Once our whole family were out for overseas trip, our gate decided to malfunction and open on its own! We only know it at 12midnight that our house is wide open, unattended, I called her to help and immediately she dashed out of her house (after a long day of work and already in her PJ preparing for bedtime) to rush to mine to help us to lock the gate! She had also attend to my crazy midnight or dawn break last minute insurance requestsssss.. helped to design and build insurance plans that are within our comfortable budget. Most importantly she grow with our family. Thank you for being so dependable and reliable! I promise more last min requests and crazy stuff for you and counting!
