A friend work at Sea. He is a intelligent guy and quite a nice person.

But sea culture can be ruthless. They can sack overseas team in mass if standard not met. Big Grin Probably startup culture.

He migrated to Singapore in the 1990s. Dunno when he became citizen.

Additional Note: Sorry, it's his two co-founders that came to Singapore in the 1990s. He came later. Most probably in the 2000s.

Name sounds like ATB  but her FB sayz she studied in Sinpwn. Dunno if she is a transplant citizen or not but she definitely is a smart cookie to have married a diamond in the rough. Forrest Li is a rags to riches guy who invests heavily in Sinpwn. Dis type of billionaire we can sarpot and get behind,
not those money laundering, tax evasion type.  Clapping

With about 3,000 employees in Singapore, Sea is one of the largest homegrown tech companies by workforce. It’s also the owner of the city’s Lion City Sailors Football Club.

Yes, he started poor when he first arrived here, renting a room here n there...cut story short, he did odd jobs n studying partime , very hardworking chap,, met local samaritans who gave him the inspiration to succeed.

Now he'a a billionaire, he's doing lots of charities , contribute large sums to charity  n sponsoring socisl projects besides giving schlarships to bright  locals .

Another tip...if u want to succeed in life, u must have a name of an animal or trees n woods like pony ma, forrest li, wood man low profile millionaire etc

Started out poor? Naah.. There are only 2 kinds of PRC that came to Singapore in the 2000s. 2nd Generation of well-to-do businessmen or civil servants. The article is trying to paint a rag-to-riches narrative, but if you knew how much GGame (now Garena) was making back in the days and how much he paid to buy over 陈欧, you'd think otherwise.

Yes, the wife is also PRC turned citizen after joining Temasek. Think you got it the other way round, the wife is well to do herself and well connected. Forrest Li made the connection to Singapore (mainly Temasek) through the wife. And no, this is more of a story of Elite connections.
