Acknowledgement of Support for Win Without Fighting with Sun Tzu Art of War book

This book would not have reached its full depth and clarity without the support and inspiration of my long-time ally and collaborator, Dr. Vivian Passion Koh.

Vivian and I have walked a powerful journey together, blending my passion for Sun Tzu’s Art of War and the Yijing with her life-transforming SuperME Unleashed framework of Purpose, Love, and Gratitude (PLG).

It is this synergy that allows the timeless strategies of Sun Tzu to be more than theory — they become a heart-centered practice that leaders and organizations can live out in their daily lives.

Vivian’s relentless encouragement, her gift of validation, and her unwavering belief in me and my work gave me the strength to bring this book to life.

She has always reminded me that winning without fighting begins within — with alignment, peace, and love.

This book is as much a reflection of her influence as it is of my writing. I am deeply grateful to have such a partner on this journey of transforming lives through wisdom, strategy, and heart.

The Secret Under the Mattress: Why would a 79-year Man Bet So Big on 4D?

It was 2007 when we discovered his secret. While moving my father’s mattress, we found them: heaps and heaps of Singapore Pools 4D tickets. They were stacked in layers, a paper trail of lost hopes. What shocked us most wasn’t just the volume, but the stakes. He wasn’t betting a few dollars for fun. He was punting hundreds of dollars per draw—nearly ten times a month. At the time, my siblings and I were furious. Our father was a 79-year-old retiree. We wondered, with a mix of anger and confusion, why a man at his stage of life would need to win such "big money." What was he going to do with the money? We saw it as a reckless habit, a sign of poor judgment in his final years. Some of us would say, "If I were to give him money to buy 4D, why don't I use the money and buy 4D myself? At least I have better discipline". It has taken me two decades, and the experience of raising my own three grown-up children, to finally see the truth that was hidden under that matt...

Head Bleeding when the Chair Falls

The Weight of Silence: What Were We Really Arguing About? My earliest memories are punctuated by the sound of shouting. In 1970, when I was barely 6 years old, I stood as a small witness to the fierce quarrels between my father and my late eldest brother Kah Yang (he passed away in 1971 at the age of 17). As I grew up, these contradictions became the soundtrack of our lives, usually centered around our family's shoe shop and clothing stalls in Chinatown. In the court of family opinion, the verdict was almost always the same: my father was "wrong." He was judged as a man who didn't fulfill his role, who wasn't "burdening" enough for the family’s success. But as I look back from the vantage point of 2026, I have to ask: Was that actually true? Let me finally put to rest what my father did right: the truths that were buried under decades of criticism: Unseen Labor: He worked grueling, long hours. I remember him hauling boxes of goods and equipment to set u...
