- Teresa Hsu Chih, or commonly known as Teresa Hsu is a Chinese-born Singaporean social worker, known affectionately as "Singapore's Mother Teresa", in recognition for her active life-long devotion in helping the aged sick and destitutes locally. The retired nurse is the founder of the non-profit charities—Heart to Heart Service and the Home for the Aged Sick, one of the first homes for the aged sick in Singapore. She has been a social worker in China and Paraguay and a nurse in England, before coming to Singapore to start similar non-profit charities since 1961. Now a supercentenarian, she is still actively involved in charity work to the present day. She has spent almost all her savings on feeding and housing the poor and the elderly, all of whom are younger than she is, but she herself leads a simple and humble lifestyle. In 2005, she received the Special Recognition Award from the Singapore government in recognition of her contribution to the country.
- Teresa Hsu Chih ist eine Sozialarbeiterin. Sie ist unter dem liebevollen Namen „Singapurs Mutter Theresa“ als Anerkennung für ihre aktive lebenslange Hingabe für die Hilfe alter und mittelloser Menschen bekannt geworden.
