Oei gambles on AIG
Who dares wins, works as a motto for Britain's elite SAS forces and it is going to work wonders for the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, thanks to a bold share market gamble by tycoon Oei Hong Leong.
Mr Oei bought one million American International Group (AIG) shares on Tuesday when the stock was in freefall and many investors were bailing out of the giant insurer.
He told The Straits Times that he will donate the shares, which have already shot up in value, to the school to mark Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew's 85th birthday, which fell on Tuesday.
One smart businessman.
