For prominent businesswoman Jannie Chan, completing her two-week prison term last Saturday has brought closure in more ways than one.
In prison, she got to meet daughter Audrey Tay after asking for and receiving permission from prison officials, which meant closure from the stress Ms Chan had to endure ever since her 45-year-old daughter went to jail five months ago.
