Foreword by President

Tharman Shanmugaratnam

I Am Not Good Enough is more than a biography, or a chronicle of business achievements. It illustrates the value of grit and determination in life, regardless of our backgrounds. Of taking the different path. And of the broader social role that corporate organisations can play, particularly in uplifting those who need a hand. May the book inspire others to aspire, to build and lead with courage, and to share success by giving back to society.

About the Book

The book reflects his journey of overcoming adversity, building a purpose-driven organisation, and the values that shaped his leadership. Through candid anecdotes, he highlights decisiveness and accountability as defining traits of his leadership. Written in his relatable style, the book offers honest, insightful and powerful lessons for entrepreneurs, leaders, and those seeking personal growth. It features a foreword by the President of the Republic of Singapore, Mr Tharman Shanmugaratnam.

The book is structured into 25 chapters each featuring a special “Decision Triangle” framework that guides readers on how to reframe their mindset when navigating life’s toughest challenges. Additionally, two bonus chapters delve into property investment strategies and the art of effective leadership, offering actionable advice for those looking to inspire and lead with impact.
