Welcome to ArthurTjandra.Com

Dr Arthur Tjandra’s Facebook account was terminated by Facebook in September 2016. This is actually a good thing, as these days, only those who are grandparents and great grandparents still use Facebook. You would be considered a dinosaur, if you still used Facebook today. The tech savvy, cool, hip and young-at-heart either use Friendster, MySpace, ICQ, WeChat or TikTok.

Unfortunately, TikTok also kicked Dr Arthur Tjandra out from its platform. While YouTube, Instagram and Facebook kicked him out for very obvious reason, that is for promoting syringe liposuction, TikTok kicked him out for completely different reason: for being too sexy to perform kungfu! Perhaps his Shaolin kungfu moves appear more like sexual intercourse than kungfu. Or perhaps his imitation of Bruce Lee’s epic yelling, sounds more like a man having orgasm. Either way, TikTok believes that Dr Arthur Tjandra’s action in the kungfu instructional video is a sexual activity, or he perhaps he looks like a porno star. That was why he was kicked out with the reason: “adult nudity and sexual activity”. Dr Arthur Tjandra of Elixir de Vie is, perhaps, the most hated person on social media platforms today, as he has been kicked out and banned from all social media platforms.

As Dr Arthur Tjandra of Elixir de Vie can no longer share his favorite race photos with friends and relatives on Facebook and Instagram, he has re-posted old race photos on ArthurTjandra.Com. He will continue to post all his upcoming race photos on ArthurTjandra.Com.

He has managed to download some of his videos, before Tiktok terminated his account in April 2022. He has posted those videos on this page: King Arthur’s TikTok videos.

When Dr Arthur Tjandra of Elixir de Vie took part in his first race back in 2004, he promised himself that he would compete in at least 80 races by the time he is 80 years old. As of December 2019, Dr Arthur Tjandra who was coming to 50 years of age, had competed in 56 marathon, half marathon, duathlon, triathlon and 10K races. Let’s wish him good health, so that he can continue to run up to and beyond the age of 80!

Unfortunately, due to Covid-19 outbreak, Dr Arthur Tjandra’s marathon trips have been put to a halt since 2020. Even if it is possible to travel again when borders re-open, Australia does not seem to be a viable option anymore, because of the rise of anti-Chinese sentiment in Australia. Australian government and public officials have issued numerous anti-Chinese rhetorics. Prior to Covid-19 outbreak, Australia was Dr Arthur Tjandra’s main marathon destination, as he has trouble running in temperate climate in tropical countries. Australia was a perfect option as it was not too far away from Singapore, unlike Europe. Dr Arthur Tjandra visited Australia up to 5 times a year for Canberra, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sydney and Melbourne marathons. Although Australia has never been a Chinese-friendly country, it was still bearable prior to Covid-19 outbreak.

During Covid-19 pandemic, Dr Arthur Tjandra picked up new hobbies: trading, kungfu and singing. To listen to his singing, you may download the StarMaker App on your phone and look for “King Arthur Tjandra“. Alternatively, you may visit this page: King Arthur’s Singing on StarMaker.

Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon 2013:

In 2013, Dr Arthur Tjandra took part in his last full marathon race at Singapore Standard Chartered Marathon. 2014 is the year he downgrades from full marathon to half marathon races, as he simply does not have the time and conducive environment to train for full marathon. He is a decent sub-2-hour half-marathoner, but a pathetic 5-hour marathoner.

With such bad timing in his last full marathon race, Dr Arthur Tjandra is determined to focus on and train for half marathon, instead of full marathon races.
