My
Acquaintance With Singapore's Adventurer, Author &
Motivational Speaker - Khoo Swee Chiow.
It
was my usual routine to check out new books in the
bookstore that afternoon when I noticed a new book on
the shelf, "Singapore To Beijing On A bike."

"Wow," that was an amazing
feat by our Singapore's greatest adventurer, Khoo Swee
Chiow! I picked up the book and I was flipping through
the pages admiring his achievement. An amazing
travelogue by Swee Chiow! I exclaimed to myself. This
man is someone that I will choose as my inspiration
idol to motivate myself to achieve even more success
in my life. His determination and perseverance to
overcome adversities and attaining his goals reminds
me when I was bodybuilding to compete in 1998. A total
of more than 18 years of failing, re-learning , and
always so hungry for new knowledge to defeat and
surpass myself to achieve a new standard and dream in
my life.

He has not only proven himself and
to the world as one of the greatest adventurer of all
time but he is also an established author as well as a
motivational speaker in Singapore. Some of his
adventure achievements include;
1997 – Cho Oyu
1998 – Mt Everest
1999 – South Pole
2000 – 7 Summits
2001 – Shishapangma without oxygen
2002 – North Pole
2003 – Cycling: Singapore-Beijing
2004 – Swimming: Straits of Malacca
2005 – World's Longest Scuba Dive
2006 – Mt Everest
As my book was also
launched recently, the idea of sending a copy of my
autographed book to him instantly hit my mind. I found
his website - "Dare To Dream" on the internet
without much problems and I began writing to him to
see if it's possible for me to send my book to his
office. Instead, he suggested that we meet up for
coffee to exchange books with each other.

The famous adventurer, author &
motivational speaker that I met was a humble family
man who brought along his family, his wife and
children, to meet me at one of the Coffee Bean's Cafe
in Bishan Junction 8 Shopping Centre.
A confident and cheerful fellow that
has achieved lots in life. He is down to earth and his
least arrogant manners made me respect him even more.
We had a great conversation and he is always so
willing to share his life experiences with me.
It was a short one hour acquaintance
but I learned a lot from him about the deeper meaning
of life and success as we parted to reunite with our
family again.

What
you can learn from Swee Chiow in this new book?
It's not just a travelogue about
Swee Chiow's expedition from Singapore to Beijing, in
this book you will learn a lot of other values like
"Dare To Dream, Dare To Make It Come True",
"Staying Focus When You Encounter With
Failure", " Winning Is Not As Important If
You Have Tried Your Best", etc. For cyclists,
Swee Chiow would show you through this cycling
expedition that cycling from Singapore to Beijing
needs lots of planning, logistic supports, love and
motivation to achieve his objective of reaching his
destination so that he would be in time for the birth
of his child. It's his desire and motivation to search
for his roots in China that triggered him to start
taking actions to make this whole expedition into
realization. It's an enlightening book with good
values and pictures during the expedition and most
importantly, very strong and powerful quotations
personally from Swee Chiow that you can practice for
great success in your life!
My
Personal Letter To Swee Chiow
Dear
Swee Chiow,
It has been my pleasure meeting up
with you for coffee and exchanging books with each
other. Though it was a short one hour acquaintance, I
believe we had a great conversation learning from each
other about each other beliefs and values.
Wish you all the success to your new
book launch as you share with the world about your new
experience from Singapore to Beijing on a bike.
Last but not least, may I bless you
and your family with good health as you commit your
life and time preparing and representing Singapore for
the next expedition adventure.
Yours Sincerely
Sean Toh
