The man who unfortunately died in the Nicoll Highway accident was Lu Zhonghao, the second-generation helmsman of Zhisong Food Company. (Provided by the interviewee)

The man who died in the Nicoll Highway accident was the second-generation head of a food company. Employees described him as friendly, young and promising. He not only actively developed the company's business, but also helped employees when they encountered difficulties. He did many things himself without putting on airs.

At about 2:10 pm last Sunday (March 2), a Porsche sports car crashed into four cars on the branch road leading to Kallang-Paya Lebar Expressway (KPE) from Nicoll Highway, overturned and caught fire. The man driving the car was trapped in the car and was unfortunately burned to death.

According to Lianhe Zaobao, the deceased was named Lo Chung-ho (37 years old), also known by his English name Jeffrey. He was a director of CS Foods, a frozen food wholesale company, and had previously been interviewed by Lianhe Zaobao.

The reporter visited Zhisong Food Company in Jingwan'an at around 1 pm on Monday (3rd). Although the company was open as usual, there was only one employee working on the first floor.

An employee who had worked with the deceased for more than eight years was shocked to hear the news of the death of his boss, Lu Zhonghao. He told reporters that the company was a family business that had been operating here for more than 30 years.

According to a 2020 report by Lianhe Zaobao, the deceased's father gave up the business in 2013 and his youngest son, Lo Chung-ho, took over. Lo Chung-ho was very good at managing the business and actively expanded overseas business by seeing the market demand. He also set up a central kitchen, launched meat processing services and semi-finished meat supply services, and the central kitchen paid for itself within a year.

In addition, he also set about setting up sales, accounting, human resources and other departments, while introducing a wider variety of products, developing the company from a meat supplier that only supplied to hawkers to a wholesaler that imported a variety of foods.

The employee revealed that the boss and his family are very friendly to their subordinates, and they do many things themselves without putting on airs.

"Once my passport was about to expire, the big boss (the deceased's father) not only told me what to do, but also personally drove me to the embassy to apply for a new passport. The small boss (the deceased) was also very nice and helped us solve the problem of renting a house."

He added that Lu Zhonghao does not come to the store often, and the last time he came was last Saturday (March 1). However, he meets with management every Monday to discuss the future development of the company.

Porsche crashed and the oil pipe ruptured, causing fuel leakage, electric shock and fire
About two or three years ago, Lu Zhonghao changed his car from a BMW to a Porsche. Judging from the location of the accident, he was believed to be on his way home when the accident happened.

Regarding the cause of the Porsche fire, Liang Tianding, president of the Singapore Automotive Industry Association, said in an interview that the fire might be caused by the oil pipe rupturing after the Porsche collided with other vehicles, causing fuel to leak and contact the circuit, thereby causing a fire.

The Land Transport Authority's OneMotoring website shows that the road tax for the Porsche involved will expire in May this year. The price of this Porsche 911 Carrera starts at about 570,000.

Society will only remember him for his reckless driving, the incident that gave him that 5 minutes of fame, everything else is irrelevant.

I see the way the Porsche driver speed on the road, no police car can catch up with him at all. It’s too fast. He must be fatally injured so can’t even move. Why was he driving at such a high speed? Angry? Frustrated? If he wants to play his life, he should do it at after midnight when no cars are on the road.

I think the reason why it lose traction is because it is a normal 911 base model. Base model are not design for rapid cornering ah…

I m incline to think if it is a 911 GT3 RS , it can wind through that corner at very high speed as that car has 1900 pounds of downforce with no frunk due to special design to add more downforce at the front… it also has a roll cage for added stability.

so if his laopei buy him a 1.4mil 911 GT3 RS, then this incident might not happen.. but another possibility is something wrong with that bend that will make every car lose traction.
Some corrective steering could've saved the car but that one need skill

Eyewitness say he scream n bang window, so likely not terribly hurt. In fact, minus fire, looking at the car's position at the end, he might not even be seriously hurt

Driver killed in high-speed crash was director of Chee Song Foods, Jeffrey Loh Chong Hao

SINGAPORE - The driver of the blue Porsche 911 Carrera killed in a high-speed crash on Nicoll Highway on March 2 was 37-year-old Jeffrey Loh Chong Hao, The Straits Times has learnt.

Mr Loh is the director and one of three shareholders of Chee Song Foods, a company known for its halal-certified meat products sold under the CS Foods brand in supermarkets. He is also a licensed financial adviser with AIA Singapore.

The Porsche was bought brand new in May 2021 and registered under Chee Song Foods, Land Transport Authority records show.

According to Mr Loh’s LinkedIn profile, he studied banking and finance at the Singapore Institute of Management under the University of London International Programme.

A business associate, who wanted to be known only as Mr Koh, told ST he was shocked when he saw the video of the crash and recognised Mr Loh’s car, which he had driven to their meetings.

“The industry is in shock, and we are waiting to hear if there will be a wake so we can bid farewell to him,” said Mr Koh.

Mr Loh’s colleagues declined to comment when The Straits Times visited the Chee Song Foods office on March 3.

At Mr Loh’s home, a family member told ST that the family does not plan to issue any statement at the moment.

Mr Koh described Mr Loh - who is not married - as hardworking, driven, and devoted to his work. He recalled a business trip with Mr Loh in November 2024 to visit food factories in China.

I only see those videos uploaded. His car crushed into the divider before exploded. Does he has time to get out? Why drive so fast in the first place??
