Ho Lye Toh

Ho Lye Toh (born 1923) is a Singaporean retired weightlifter and a three times former Miss Singapore.

Toh's father was Ho Peng Khoen, a school teacher and Malayan weightlifting champion. He encouraged Ho to weightlift in order to build up her strength, rewarding her with small gifts as she lifted greater weights. Eventually she mastered the snatch-lift. Ho also entered beauty pageants winning several times but was forced to stop following the Japanese invasion of Singapore during the Second World War. She tried again after the war but her boyfriend asked her to stop as she was too successful. Her sister also entered and won many pageants.
