Datuk Teoh Teik Lee – a larger than life mentor


Datuk Teoh Teik Lee at his 90th birthday celebration on Oct 25.

Datuk Teoh Teik Lee celebrated his 90th birthday recently and among the 150 guests were about a score of his former students from the Specialist Teachers’ Training Institute (STTI) in Kuala Lumpur.

Looking at Teoh now, 35 years after his retirement, he is as trim and fit-looking as ever. Teoh had spent his whole career at the STTI, having structured the specialist course in Physical Education for teachers in 1960.
