"I last met Ah Siong nearly 30 years ago. She used to bring me a pack of pandan pau when i was a boy," he said when contacted Wednesday (June 17).
He said the elderly lady, whom he described as his aunty, worked as a supervisor at his parents company in Seapark.
A video was shared on the Petaling Jaya district police's official Facebook page on Wednesday showing the lady greeting ACP Nik Ezanee at her house.
He even brought a bag of pau for her.
"Now that I can afford to buy my own pau, I will send some to her," he is heard telling his officer in the clip.
The lady welcomed him into her house and showed him a box of paper cuttings that she had kept of ACP Nik Ezanee.
The video has nearly 8,000 likes and has been shared more than 2,000 times with over 1,200 comments by internet users touched by his kind gesture.
"She still remembers me. She reads about me in the Chinese media and keeps the news cuttings of me. That really suprised me," he said, adding that the elderly community were close to his heart.
He added that two days ago he held a meeting with some old folks in his district.
"Many residents here are elderly and they are in the high risk group for the Covid-19 virus.
"I wanted to remind them to be careful with strangers as the elderly are also easy targets," he said.
