The late Pioneer Generation leader Sim Kee Boon passed away in 2007. Work on the biography finally began in December 2018 when SMU Professor of Finance (Practice) Dave Fernandez, Director of the SMU Sim Kee Boon Institute for Financial Economics (SKBI), suggested a book on Mr Sim. On Friday (Sept 23), the 240-page biography titled “Sim Kee Boon: The Businessman Bureaucrat” was launched by SKBI and Landmark Books at SMU. Mr Chan Chun Sing, Minister for Education and Minister-in-charge of the Public Service, was the guest of honour at the book's unveiling ceremony.
