Reviews:
"We thoroughly enjoyed reading your book; an inspiring life story that is to be proud of what you have achieved. The hardship that you and your family have gone through and come out on top is amazing. It proves that a dark fate can turn into a great success, if you willingly and determinedly pursue it. You have risen, rightly so, more than that nickname 'blue-eyed boy!'" - Tina and Don Clarke, Middle Swan, Western Australia.

He has covered many events connected to the Malayan Emergency (a 12-year jungle war against the Communist terrorists) and written features dealing with this eventful period of the Malaysian history.
In 1962, he covered Lord Lansdowne's inter-government committee to North Borneo and Sarawak to work out the future constitutional arrangements to form the Federation of Malaysia.
In 1967, he was invited by Mr. George E. Christian, Press Secretary to the U.S. President, for a month's tour of the United States. The visit, sponsored by The White House, was to meet people and exchange ideas that would lead to "increased understanding of the many ways in which our mutual hopes and values are reflected in American institutions and American life". In the same year, he was News Editor and later Acting Editor of a national English newspapers group in Malaysia, The New Straits Times Press.
In 1970, he migrated to Australia and worked in The West Australian newspaper as a senior journalist for 21 years. He retired as Chief of News Bureau, Features Manager and Head of the Racing Statistics - all three sections at the same time.
