Ten-year-old boy who met Dr Wee a decade ago now accepted at Stanford University

PETALING JAYA: A brief meeting with Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong a decade ago gave a 10-year-old boy motivation and encouragement to study hard – which has now led to an offer to continue his studies at the prestigious Stanford University in the United States.

On Facebook, Dr Wee had shared a photo of himself and the then-10-year-old boy receiving a prize for a state-level competition.
