Lee Kong Chian: Educationalist Entrepreneur Philanthropist

By: Kenneth Lyen

Lee Kong Chian (1893-1967) is one of Singapore's most outstanding figures in the history of Singapore and Southeast Asia. This book is the first complete account of this great person, following him from childhood to his passing. He leaves behind a great legacy which will continue to impact the lives of countless numbers of people in Singapore and beyond. He came from a poor family, but he became a highly successful businessman and entrepreneur who founded several companies in Southeast Asia. He also co-founded the Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation. He played a key role in the development of the region's economy, and his contributions helped to create jobs and stimulate growth. He was named the King of Rubber and the Pineapple King, and became one of the richest men in Southeast Asia in the 1950s to 1960s, and yet he lived a simple frugal lifestyle. Lee Kong Chian was a generous philanthropist who donated millions of dollars to charitable causes throughout his life. He used his personal money to start the Lee Foundation, which continues to donate to educational institutions, healthcare, and social welfare.

Nicodemism and the English Calvin, 1544–1584

By: Kenneth J. Woo

In Nicodemism and the English Calvin Kenneth J. Woo reassesses John Calvin's decades-long attack against Nicodemism, which Calvin described as evangelicals playing Catholic to avoid hardship or persecution. Frequently portrayed as a static argument varying little over time, the reformer's anti-Nicodemite polemic actually was adapted to shifting contexts and diverse audiences. Calvin's strategic approach to Nicodemism was not lost on readers, influencing its reception in England. Quatre sermons (1552) presents Calvin's anti-Nicodemism in the only sermons he personally prepared for publication. By setting this work in its original context and examining its reception in five sixteenth-century English editions, Woo demonstrates how Calvin and others deployed his rhetoric against Nicodemism to address concerns having little to do with religious dissimulation.

Sing Musicals

A History of Singapore Musical Theatre

By: Kenneth Lyen

This is the first book documenting the history of the Singapore musical. It aims not only to portray what the Singapore theatre scene was like in the past, but also how the stories and language used can capture its culture, art and social life. The first musicals appeared in 1988 and for the next couple of decades there has been a flourishing of new musicals. However, this was stalled for three years during the COVID-19 pandemic with the closure of theatres. Recovery is starting again and there is a renaissance in creativity with new musicals being written and staged. This book covers original Singapore stage musicals, pantomimes, operas, movies and college musicals. It also touches on Chinese language musicals. Important playwrights, lyricists, composers, producers and directors are highlighted in the book. It ends by proposing several ways to stimulate further creation of new musicals which will have an impact on the evolution of Singapore's musical theatre. Initially influenced by Broadway and West End musicals, Singapore has evolved into its own unique style of presentation. Documentation of this development is important. The final chapter recommends how musicals can be developed further, and this can have an significant impact on the creation of future Singapore musicals. The Foreword is written by Professor Tommy Koh, the Founder President of the National Arts Council of Singapore.
