I, KKK – The Autobiography of a Historian

Among Prof Emeritus Tan Sri Dr. Khoo Kay Kim's many accomplishments, was working on crafting our very own Rukun Negara. The renowned historian, who recently turned 80, has (somewhat reluctantly) penned his memoirs, with the help of his son Eddin Khoo. They both join us to discuss the reason behind publishing the book I, KKK - The Autobiography of a Historian, while also sharing stories from Prof. Khoo's illustrious life.
