Veteran newscaster Raymond Goh in critical condition after suffering stroke


PETALING JAYA: Raymond Goh, who is known for anchoring TV3's Nightline news bulletin, is in critical condition after suffering a stroke.

One of Goh's students, Abdullah Pak Lah, said the veteran newscaster had suffered a stroke and was now being treated at the Assunta Hospital in Petaling Jaya.

"One of the nicest and (most) kind-hearted souls I have ever known," said Abdullah on Facebook on Wednesday (Aug 30).

Meanwhile, his former colleague, Datuk Ras Adiba Radzi, also asked the people to pray for Goh's recovery.

"I was the first batch of TV3's news anchors alongside Raymond Goh among others and I can tell you, back then, anchoring the news was something else.

"As I type this now, Raymond is in ICU and fighting for his life. May I ask that you say a prayer for him, please," she posted.

Goh is a veteran news anchor with over 30 years' experience. He also trains and coaches individuals on how to speak well.
