That's 40 years ago. I think it is surprising that a man as busy as himself has had the time to pick up this hobby on the side.

He also published a paper on economics quite a while back (http://www.jstor.org/discover/10.2307/1882634) on externalities. Not surprising, given the proactive Singapore government.

For people with intermediate proficiency in Chinese, I want to point out that Project Syndicate (http://www.project-syndicate.org/), a website which is basically a bunch of Op-eds from a host of famous individuals, has its articles translated into Chinese.

For example:

English: http://www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/ruble-collapse-c...

Chinese: http://www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/ruble-collapse-c...

Not a bad way to pick up extra vocabulary, if you read them side-by-side!
