Was highly aroused by the deaths of two teens practising autoerotic asphyxiation in Singapore since 10 years ago, but I failed to find the relevant news coverage for archiving.

Recently, I happened to get through the newspaper microfilm search from Singapore National Library, and found the names of the poor guys:

EUGENE YANG ZI LE (aged 14 / 15), deceased 30 June 2000.
LOW WEI ZHONG (aged 14 / 15), deceased 9 February 1999.



Unfortunately, all the articles are not available online, and I have to visit the library in Singapore on my own, which is impossible for me. None of the article is obtainable, except one on Eugene's ...

Are kids learning risky sex behaviours on Net? [ARTICLE + ILLUSTRATION]
The Straits Times, 5 July 2000, Page 40
SELINA LUM JACK HEE

SCHOOLBOY Eugene Yang's death last Friday has similarities to cases in which people stangle themselves for sexual stimulations, but hang themselves accidentally.
The 15-year-old boy's sister found his body clad in her sports bra and a pair of shorts at their Choa Chu Kang Central flat on Friday night.
His hands and feet were tied with raffia and his mouth was gagged with cloth tape.
A thin belt was around his body and upper arms.
A raffia string round his neck was attached to the doorknob of his room.
Police have classified it as an unnatural death, but suspect no foul play.
The case is similar to the deaths of people who have tried a technique to enhance sexual experience, which involves cutting off their own air supply deliberately.
This is known as autoerotic asphyxiation or hypoxyphilia, and is a form of sado-masochism, said Dr Douglas Kong, a consultant psychiatrist ...




So, I need help from anyone here in Singapore for some relevant articles from the search results.
