The Chinese Heritage Centre was established in May 1995 to promote knowledge and understanding of people of Chinese descent outside China and their heritage through research, publications, conferences and exhibitions. It also houses the Wang Gungwu Library which has a specialized focus on the Chinese overseas and their heritage. As the first organization to specialize in the study of Chinese communities outside China, it is most appropriate that the Centre be housed in the former Nanyang University’s historic Administration Block, which itself is a relic of the landmark establishment of the first and only Chinese-medium university outside China founded by the ethnic Chinese.

The Institute of Southeast Asian Studies (ISEAS) was established as an autonomous organization in 1968. It is a regional centre dedicated to the study of socio-political, security and economic trends and developments in Southeast Asia and its wider geostrategic and economic environment. The Institute’s research programmes are the Regional Economic Studies (RES, including ASEAN and APEC), Regional Strategic and Political Studies (RSPS), and Regional Social and Cultural Studies (RSCS). ISEAS Publishing, an established academic press, has issued more than 2,000 books and journals. It is the largest scholarly publisher of research about Southeast Asia from within the region. ISEAS Publishing works with many other academic and trade publishers and distributors to disseminate important research and analyses from and about Southeast Asia to the rest of the world.

Introduction to Glossary and Indexes In order to help the user of the Southeast Asian Personalities of Chinese Descent:A Biographical Dictionary Volume I, we have prepared this companion Volume II consisting of a glossary and indexes. The glossary consists of brief explanations of abbreviations, acronyms, names, terms and certain important events included in the 605 entries in Volume I. Although the abbreviations, terms, and acronyms are given in full in each entry in Volume I, they are not explained in detail as that may disrupt the flow of the writing and occupy too much space. Volume II contains five types of indexes: name, gender, category, country and author. The index by Name is crucial as it lists the official name and other names of an individual, including his/her Chinese names in local spellings, in Hanyu Pinyin, and names known by the community/society. For instance, Rudy Hartono, the well-known badminton champion from Indonesia, is listed under Kurniawan, Rudy Hartono in the dictionary, not under Rudy Hartono. However, he is better known as Rudy Hartono. Some may know him by his original Chinese name Nio Hap Liang in local spellings, or his original Chinese name in Hanyu Pinyin Liang Hailiang ( ). All of these names are listed in the index by Name so that the user who only knows one name can still locate the person in the dictionary by referring to the Index. Another important index is that of occupation under “Category”.We have listed 11 categories in this dictionary, namely businessmen/businesswomen, politicians, community leaders, artists (painters, dancers, musicians, singers, actors and actresses), professionals (including natural and social scientists, academics, lawyers, accountants, architects, engineers), sportsmen/sportswomen, writers, mass media, religious leaders/promoters of religion, educators/promoters of education and others including philanthropists, social and political activists, national heroes, etc. The user who does not know the name of the individual person in a particular field can use this index to locate the entry. Many personalities are listed in two or more categories. For instances, Tan Lark Sye is listed in the categories of education, community leader and businessman. For readers who are interested in the coverage of female/male personalities, there is the index by Gender. For those who are interested in knowing the personalities in certain countries, the

index by Country is provided. A few individuals are listed in more than one country as they made a contribution/impact in those countries.
