There is an interesting story behind the Chun Zi Hall, one of the halls located at the premises of the Association. On 18 November in 1967, Gan Yue Cheng and three other committee members paid a friendly visit to the Philippines Gan Clan, where they received a rousing welcome and a generous donation of $33,000 from Gan Kee Tang, a Gan from the Philippines. As a token of appreciation, the Singapore Gans dedicated one of the halls to the donor's mother, her maiden name was Chun Zi.
