Mr. Lee Tiong Sek, courtesy name Zihua, also known as Binsheng, was from Yongchun city, Fujian. His father was Mr. You Wu, and his mother was Madam Yang. Madam Yang gave birth to him in China. In his youth, he mastered the Six Classics and the Four Books, and became a talented scholar in the late Qing dynasty. At the end of the Qing era, he was elected as the chairman of the City Council. He was also the chairman of the Poison Society and served as an executive in the Republican League.
He was a man of broad-mindedness who placed little importance on material wealth. He was particularly skilled at resolving conflicts, which seemed to be influenced by Lu Zhonglian's life philosophy. As a result, whenever there was any dispute in the neighborhood, he would be called upon to arbitrate. He was especially good at analyzing arguments, had high moral standards, and spoke with both dignity and humor. His words were relevant and eloquent. During arbitrations, both parties would be captivated by his clear and detailed analysis, often forgetting why they were there in the first place, and disputes would be resolved with laughter and reconciliation.
By nature, he was joyful and carefree, able to forget gains and losses. He often enjoyed poetry and wine with friends. After a few drinks, there would be music from string or wind instruments, songs or operas, always ending the gatherings on a high note.
One day, two puppet performers - one male lead (生) and one female lead (旦) - came to visit him (at the time he was staying at the Yisheng Hotel in Singapore). Upon meeting, without exchanging pleasantries, they quickly produced two puppets - one portraying Chen Chunsheng and the other Mei Liangyou. Holding them in their hands, they performed a scene from the novel "Thinking of hairpin" The innkeeper and the guests all mistook them for professional puppeteers.
On another occasion, a wealthy gentleman named Lin from Siming was celebrating his birthday. Lee was also a guest. At the banquet, they decided to choose one person as a representative to give a congratulatory speech. The chosen person needed to be known for two abundant qualities - commonly referred to as having good fortune in eight areas - to be qualified. Lee happened to be selected. He wrote a piece on red paper, with every sentence being humorous yet accessible (using "dong" as the rhyme). Before he could finish reciting, everyone was doubled over with laughter. He was truly in the league of Dongfang Shuo and Mei Gao.
His wife was Madam Ong . He has many children and grandchildren. His eldest son is doing business in Semarang

THE STRAITS TRADING Company Ltd, one of Singapore's most venerated companies, is finally preparing to flex some of its huge financial muscles, if the
latest appointment of a chief executive officer is any indication.
The company, which is headed by chairman Tan Sri Tan Chin Tuan, announced last week that it had appointed Mr Lee Cheong Seng, currently the managing director of Elders Pica Pte Ltd, for the newly-created post of CEO.
Mr Lee, who has had a long track record in the financial arena, will take up his appointment on Jan 1, 1989. He holds a first class honours degree in chemical engineering and a diploma in management studies.
He worked for Esso Singapore Refinery for five years before joining Private Investment Company for Asia (Pica) S A in June 1974.
Pica, a private multinational investment-related institution then, was taken over in 1984 by the Elders Group of Australia and renamed Elders Pica.
