Tribute To Dr Goh Keng Swee

Much has been written about Dr Goh Keng Swee’s role as one of the nation’s founding fathers. Without him, the Singapore of today would not exist. Without him too, today’s Jurong would not exist.

It was Dr Goh’s vision and political determination to push through the Jurong Industrial Estate project in the face of much public scepticism and criticism that was decisive in transforming Jurong into a large and thriving industrial complex, equipped with efficient and modern infrastructure and facilities capable of attracting numerous investors, and providing jobs, incomes and homes to many Singaporeans.
