Asked why, the present chairman of the EDB Consulting Group said it was probably due to the excellent rapport and intellectual match that he found in Singapore leaders then, such as Mr Lee Kuan Yew, Mr S Rajaratnam, Dr Goh Keng Swee and Mr Hon Sui Sen.
The founding father of the Dutch post-war industrialisation programme, Dr Winsemius headed a United Nations team that came to Singapore in 1960 to study what sort of industries could be set up here.
"Without him, I would not have had my 30-year career in EDB," he said, explaining that it was Dr Winsemius who in 1968 recommended him to then EDB chief Hon Sui Sen to set up EDB's first overseas branch, in New York.
