Mdm. Bethayee Ponnusamy
1901 - 1973

A life of dedication to family, work and ideals

Year 1915. A young girl from a village in Tiruvarur District, Tamil Nadu, barely 15, she ventures into a strange land far away from home. With dedication, tenacity and resilience, she made Singapore her home, and not only did she survive, she thrived with a life endowed with sufficient resources for her family, played a role-model with her way of being and built a legacy for generations to come.
