He went to study at Cambridge University, graduated with a first class honours degree of Engineering in 1979, then a Master of Science degree under the Sloan Fellows programme from Stanford Graduate School of Business. He then returned to Singapore to serve in the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF), rising to the rank of Brigadier-General.
