The Silent Roar: A Covid Awakening in the Lion City

From the Sound of Music to the Sound of Freedom, this is the true story of a music teacher turned accidental activist—called not by politics, but by conscience.

In a time when fear ruled the headlines and silence was rewarded, one woman heard a whisper from God—and chose to speak.

The Silent Roar is the story of Iris Koh’s spiritual and moral awakening during the COVID-19 crisis in Singapore. What began as quiet questions soon became a calling—one that led her into the heart of a national storm. From founding Healing the Divide to standing against censorship, coercion, and injustice, Iris charts a path of faith, courage, and inner compass in an age when compliance was easier than conscience.

This is not just a memoir.

It is an invitation to awaken.

To listen for the whisper.

And to find your voice in the noise.

Because even in the Lion City—

There are roars that do not need to be loud to shake the world.
