Isabella Loh Wai Kiew as "Miss December" in the SembCorp calendar when she was CEO there.
Naturally, the Twittersphere, with its devil worshipers, could not resist coming up with possible reasons why Wildlife Reserves Singapore CEO Isabella Loh Wai Kiew cancelled the popular Night Safari Halloween Horrors event, thereby flushing $1 million and 7 months of hard work by Singapore Polytechnic students and her own staff down the toilet.
Hence, the hashtag #whyisabellalohcanceledhalloween was born:
1. @mrbrown: She was worried the Night Safari animals would be afraid of the dark. #whyisabellalohcanceledhalloween
2. @mrbrown: She felt Lantern Festival at the Night Safari was more relevant to conservation than Halloween. #whyisabellalohcanceledhalloween

I received some feedback that "canceled" should be spelled "cancelled". But Lee Kuan Yew said embrace American English too leh.
