FOREWORD

Summary

I knew Baey Lian Peck through his work in the Singapore Corporation of Rehabilitative Enterprise (SCORE). I found him public-spirited, willing to give of his time in spite of his business schedule. From SCORE, he went on to other duties for the government. I always found him responsive and diligent in carrying out the duties he voluntarily undertook.

Without people like Baey Lian Peck, Singapore could not have been as well run. We have decentralised many of the functions of government into institutions run primarily by publicspirited men and women. The government supplies the secretarial staff. Baey Lian Peck was one such man.
