I read with sadness the news of the death of Professor Lim Chong Yah (Prominent economist Lim Chong Yah dies, aged 91, July 8).
When I was studying A-level economics in junior college in the 1980s, a textbook written by him was the main source of guidance and clarity.
I suggest that an updated edition of this textbook be published, with prominent local economists contributing new background material.
This would allow the current generation of A-level students to be inspired by his academic rigour and legacy.
