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!

Elaine Lau, Banker (Client since 2019)

If I were to describe the impression that Jacqueline gives me, I would say - "I never knew what a good agent is like, until I know Jacq" I am a non believer of insurance due to bad experiences in my early years. I steer clear when I hear the word insurance. However, Jacq changes everything. She is not just my trustworthy agent, she is also a friend. Jacq is patience in listening to your needs and gives you timely and the best professional advices for you and your family. Jacq is highly efficient and always there when you need her. She is extremely helpful, caring, attentive, always with a smile and very knowledgeable in her expertise of work. Undoubtedly, Jacq is the BEST insurance agent one could ever have, and a true gem in this industry. You never know how good your insurance and agent are until you need them, and both are outstanding in my case.

Bernard Tan, Business Development Manager (Client since 2003)

I opined that the insuring of ourselves, and in some cases our loved ones, are one of the many things that a responsible adult should always plan to do. There are just too many dramatic real-life cases of detrimental occurrences, telling us of the financial and emotional meltdowns we could bring to our family, should we have not insured ourselves during times when misfortune knocks on our doors. Also, we thought it is important that we do not just insure ourselves thoroughly, but to also conduct the same with a reliable underwriter which possesses sound track records, and with a seamless claims process. I have known Jacqueline for slightly over 30 Years, and had since 2 decades ago entrusted the whole insurance portfolio of my family with AIA, through this uniquely dedicated insurance agent & friend. Jac had been through with me and my family, at our various life stages; from the time when I was just married with a kid, till the later season when my 2 kids are in their teens, and now when my wife and I are in the midst of concluding our retirement. I remember vividly, that Jac would often be with me, or with my children to the hospital/clinics, so much so that she was, almost always, mistaken to be my wife, or my kids’ mother. Jacqueline was, and had always been with us when we got ourselves into such trouble. She is our go-to person when we need financial & security advise, the first person to come to mind whenever we encounter injuries, and incidents of any kind. While I may not be the best testimony to a well-trusted and dependable financial planner (I do have many to compare with), I am thankful that we to have Jac with us all thru’ these many years. We have heard of many stories that would bring bad reputation to the occupation; nonetheless, we are blessed that we are served by one who serves with a heart, who is considerate about our circumstances, mindful of our needs and always proposing solutions that best meet our needs, while not forgetting the depths of our pockets at the same time. I am delighted that I have chosen AIA; if I am given a chance to choose again, I will most certainly do the same, through Jacqueline nevertheless, to have AIA as our trusted insurance partner and provider. 05 Feb 2023

Goh Lyndy, Private Flight Attendant (Client since 2015)

Jacqueline is highly committed to her profession. She has an outstanding work ethic and has made the process of dealing with insurance easy and seamless. Whenever I am in doubt or have questions, she is always able to provide insurance counseling and advice. Her patience towards the elderly definitely shows as she handles my mum’s policies as well. She is able to explain the policies in a different way, to my mum so that she understands better and feels very assured. I would definitely recommend Jacqueline to anyone without hesitation or reservation. Thank you for always having my best interest at heart and ensuring that I am well covered!

Chloe Aw, Creative Director of Escapade Studios (Client since 2012)

Jac has been both a trusted friend and an exceptional insurance agent. She assisted me in setting up my accident and hospital insurance plans with the utmost professionalism and attention to detail. Her ability to clearly explain the policies and ensure they were tailored to my needs was truly reassuring. It is a great comfort to know that my insurance matters are in the hands of someone I trust and respect.

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.
