Person Of The Year |
|
Mr Alex Siow |
|
In all playing fields that Alex has been on, he never fits as
just a member. Instead, he almost inevitably emerges as the
mastermind of the game. He fervently believes in doing his best
in all that he lays his hands on. And, his best usually means
top-notch achievements, nothing less. His involvement as a
leader in a multitude of areas is no surprise. Alex has a
voracious appetite for tasks that seem larger than life. He is
not satisfied with roles that HDB has to offer. He has a passion
for service in the IT arena at all levels, especially at the
national level. |

when a friend introduced him to Apple II. Taken by the “new
toy”, he spent the next one month playing "Apple Panic" from
midnight till 3am every day. Since then, he has never played
another computer game with such enthusiasm again. |
