Kit Chan (simplified Chinese: 陈洁仪; traditional Chinese: 陳潔儀; pinyin: Chén Jiéyí) (born September 15, 1972) was the pioneer generation of Singaporean singers to successfully break into the international market, marked in particular by her breakthrough into the competitive and highly critical Taiwanese market.
Unarguably one of the most established local singers, Kit Chan is often dubbed as Singapore’s “national treasure” for good reasons. Since her debut in 1993, she has proven herself in many diversified areas – singing, theatre, television drama, poetry, song writing, community work, etc.

親愛的小貓貓們:
真的很久很久, 超久地沒有寫信給你們了, 我想過用EMail傳給你們, 但想想有些人會更愛我”草很大”的楔形文字!
回來的感覺真好, 看到那麼多來自不同地方的你們, 又聚在一起到香港支持我的表演, 讓我好感動. 即使到凌晨一點, 我的頭髮被拉得好緊, 好像快爆炸了, 我還覺得充滿力量. 謝謝你們給我滿滿的幹勁!
這幾年過得好快, 我們都變老, 結婚成家(好吧, 我還沒…..), 甚至為人父母, 遷往異鄉, 再度進修, 轉換工作等等. 但我盼望我們心中的火花永不熄滅, 迸出的火花是那麼純真、明亮、善良, 如影隨形在我唱歌, 做夢, 學習, 做對的事時.
那就是我為你們所祁願的, 讓生命的火花長存! 寶惜真我!
非常愛你們的, 潔儀
