My Story

Exciting stories from Woon, Yew Thong

I'd be happy to share more about my timeline!

As Baby Woon, I have a lot of memories and experiences.

Let's start from the beginning.

In 1960, I was born and grew up in a home at Jurong Crescent Road.

I have some vivid memories from my early childhood, like attending the PAP Kindergarten at Old Jurong Road in 1966.

As I grew older, I went through different stages of life, such as my secondary school years in the 1970s and my first job interviews in 1977.

In 1978, I became the Chairman of the Electronics Club and also had a part-time job maintaining the S-100 Bus North Star Horizon Computer.

Fast forward to the 1990s, I had a successful career at American Software Inc, ATIO Corporation Inc, Spectrum Associates Inc, and Pivotpoint Inc.

Currently working for International Flavors and Fragrances Inc.

I also had some memorable holidays, like my trip to New Zealand in 1996 and my visit to Switzerland, Italy, France, and the Netherlands in 2017.

These are just a few highlights from my timeline, but there are many more stories to share.

Born in 1960.

Eldest son of Woon, Khai Boon and Chan, Yee Kheng
