On 10 September 1985, 22-year-old Chong Yun Jing (张云菁 Zhāng Yúnjīng), who underwent surgery a few months before due to a brain tumour, died as a result of meningitis, which seemingly was one of the complications of the surgery she received. During investigations however, it was suspected that Chong's medical results of a brain tumour was a misdiagnosis made by Dr Lim Djoe Phing (林如平 Lín Rúpíng), an Indonesian-born neurosurgeon who conducted the surgery on Chong, given that several medical experts consulted in this case stated that Chong did not actually suffer from a brain tumour all along, and she should not have received surgery in the first place. A coroner's inquiry was conducted in November 1987 to inspect the death of Chong, and after 27 days of deliberation, on 10 June 1988, the coroner's court found Dr Lim criminally responsible of causing Chong's death by negligence, and as a result, in April 1989, Dr Lim was suspended from medical practice for one year, and he was ordered to compensate Chong's surviving kin in a civil lawsuit filed against him in September 1992. The coroner's inquiry of Chong's death was known to be the longest running coroner's inquiry in Singapore's history.[1]
