CHINESE BUDDHIST, GAMER from Singapore EMBRACES ISLAM - Ilyas Tan's REVERT STORY
In March 2020, last year, brother Ilyas Tan, formerly a Buddhist from Singapore, reverted to Islam after meeting a Muslim in a mobile game and learning more about the religion along the way. He shares his story in this video.

*In Singapore there are hybrid of cross religious beliefs. There are people with a mix of Buddhist and Taoist practices. Do note that this is just his story, who he claims to be and what he was taught by his family. It is neither a documentary nor factual description of what Buddhism is.
