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.

| | | | Eric Chua, Finance Manager (Client since 2003) I got my first policy from Jacqueline since 2003 after I got my first job since I completed my national service. She was introduced by a friend who had full of compliments of her service and professionalism. Since then, there was no turning back, I bought more policies from her and even for my kids. I did supported a few friends from other insurance companies but none of them is as responsible as Jacq and AIA remains the most efficient in terms of processing any claims.
Over the years, I will not hesitate to introduce Jacq to my peers or families whenever they need help with their insurance.
She is the best agent around and still going strong! Truly appreciate her assistance all these years.
08 Feb 2023 | | | | 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! | | | | Belle Thai, Founder of PaperDoll LIVE (Client since 2007) Jacqueline have been my insurance agent for more than 15 years and still counting. I have to say, Jacq is always very responsive to my policy queries as I do not keep track of my own coverage. Her professionalism is without a doubt, and she’s always meticulous in her work. Definitely trustworthy and patient as she’ll always advice on what I need and what I don’t from my insurance coverage, investments and retirement planning. My insurance claims are also handled very swiftly.
Jacqueline is definitely your “To-Go-For-Person” when it comes to financial planning! 10 thumbs up 👍🏻 👍🏻
10 Feb 2023 | | | | 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.

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.
