Winner of Best Book of the Year at the Singapore Book Publishers
Association awards 2018. Robert Kuok is one of the most highly
respected businessmen in Asia. But this legendary Overseas Chinese
entrepreneur, commodities trader, hotelier and property mogul has
maintained a low profile and seldom shed light in public on his
business empire or personal life. That is, until now. In these
memoirs, the 94-year-old Kuok tells the remarkable story of how,
starting in British Colonial Malaya, he built a multi-industry,
multinational business group. In reflecting back on 75 years of
conducting business, he offers management insights, discusses
strategies and lessons learned, and relates his principles,
philosophy, and moral code. Kuok has lived through fascinating and
often tumultuous times in Asia - from British colonialism to
Japanese military occupation to post-colonial Southeast Asia and
the dramatic rise of Asian economies, including, more recently,
China. From his front-row seat and as an active participant, this
keen, multi-cultural observer tells nearly a century of Asian
history through his life and times. Readers interested in business,
management, history, politics, culture and sociology will all enjoy
Robert Kuok's unique and remarkable story.
