Sim Woh Kum (冼松锦 xiǎn sōngjǐn; c.– 27 July 1973), also spelt Sim Wor Kum, was a Singaporean who was best known to be the accomplice of Mimi Wong, a bar hostess who was the first woman to be sentenced to death for murder in Singapore since its independence. Both Sim and Wong were alleged to have murdered Ayako Watanabe, who was the wife of Wong's Japanese lover on 6 January 1970. Sim had also helped Wong to restrain the victim while Wong repeatedly stabbed the woman to death. Both Sim and his wife became the first couple to be subjected to capital punishment in Singapore since its independence in 1965.
