It has been 1 year since our founding partner Mr Lee Kuan Yew passed away.
We commemorated the first anniversary of his passing with a simple gathering and walk towards Parliament House, where we each placed a flower in remembrance of his life.
We are forever grateful for Mr Lee’s contribution towards the firm and Singapore.
Our Office will be closed on 8 and 9 February 2016. We will resume business on Wednesday, 10 February 2016.
The Management wishes all a Happy Lunar New Year and Gong Xi Fa Cai!
