Despite having lung problems, Ms. Dang still went to Singapore to work at a night entertainment establishment to support her family.
Roland Tay said they had arranged to bring Ms Dang's body back to Vietnam for free. "I decided to help because her daughter was still young. I told Dang's family not to worry about the cost. I would help bring her body back to the village for free."
Roland Tay added that Ms. Dang's family members arrived in Singapore on April 29 to receive their daughter's body.
Responding to AsiaOne, Singapore police said they were alerted to an unnatural death at around 11:15 a.m. on April 26. They then found Ms. Dang's body and pulled it out of the water.
Police are still investigating the woman's death.
