Growing Up in Malaysia: Musings of a Common Man is a memoir by Khong Kim Hoong; academician, former student activist, and PSR Board of Directors. Being at the forefront of student movement in the tumultuous socio-political period of Malaysia in the Sixties, Khong Kim Hoong’s lived experiences, as quipped by Prof. Jomo K.S is far from being common:
“Contrary to this book’s title, Musings of a Common Man, Khong Kim Hoong is no common man. Nor is the book merely of his musings. Instead, most of this volume consists of his memoirs, organised by periods, occasionally highlighting significant episodes. He belongs to the one per cent of his age cohort who secured tertiary education in early post-colonial Malaya. More significantly, he took a path less taken to eventually become a major radical student leader at a significant conjuncture in the history of post-colonial Malaysia.”
