Elaine Low the daughter of Low Tuck Kwong " Mining Magnate" Donates One million US Dollors to Japan for the rehabilitation of victims of the earthquack and tsunami.

When she entered into the meeting room of the Japanese Embassy in Singapore, she was not prepared for the Media and flash of cameras.

Elaine low 24,is the biggest single donation giver to the victims of earthquack and tsunami in japan. She handed a cheque of $1 million over to Japanese officials saying,"we want to offer our help to them."

The daughter of mining magnate Low Tuck Kwong said the idea came to her last weekend. “But during that time, the Japanese Association wasn’t linked up with the Red Cross Society yet. So we made a phone call (on Monday) to the embassy and got it arranged after that.”

Mr Low, 63, said his daughter made the donation with her own money.

Mr Low is the president commissioner of integrated coal producer PT Bayan Resources, which supplies coal to Japanese power plants – including one in Tohoku in northern Japan – and steel mills.

Mr Low said his son travels “quite often” to Japan for business.

Mr Low was Singaporean but became an Indonesian citizen in 1996 and is now a permanent resident here.

Last year, Forbes ranked him as the seventh-richest man in Indonesia, with an estimated net worth of US$2.6 billion (S$3.3 billion).
