Albert Winsemius And Singapore: Here It Is Going To Happen

Here, it is going to happen is the title of a painting memorialising Albert Winsemius's industrial survey mission to Singapore. The picture depicts the hilltop view of a preindustrial Jurong. It now resides in the office of the Albert Winsemius Chair Professor in Nanyang Technological University. Besides being a biography of Albert Winsemius, the book examines Albert Winsemius's affinity with Singapore and his contributions to the nation's economic development. It also looks at his legacy and influence on past, current and future economic planners.
