History in Writing

It’s often said that history is written by winners, which is somewhat the case for The Tree Whisperer: The Official Biography of Tan Sri Lee Shin Cheng, Founder of IOI Group. It’s a memoir on the grand patriarch and founder of local conglomerate IOI Group, who passed away in June 2019, translated by Michelle Tan Ching Wuen from the original text written in Mandarin by Angeline Lee Hoong Lian. Definitely a winner in the realm of property and plantation business, the main contention would be that he didn’t get to produce the book himself— despite many urging him to do so.
