In conjunction with the launch of the reprint of Dr Lim Boon Keng’s seminal work, The Chinese Crisis from Within, and to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Dr Lim Boon Keng’s death in January 1957, an exhibition titled Lim Boon Keng: A Life to Remember is now being held at Level 9 Promenade of the National Library building, at 100 Victoria Street, from 24 January - 18 March 2007.

At the exhibition, I was impressed to find out that not only was Dr Lim Boon Keng a medical doctor by training, he was a legislator, scholar, educator, entrepreneur, community leader, social reformer and philanthropist.
