Launch of Paglar: Everyman’s Hero

Everyman’s Hero, written by the late Rex Shelley, will be officially launched by His Excellency Presidency SR Nathan on Monday 18 January 2010.

The biography sheds light on the life and times of famed gynecologist and nationalist Dr Charles Paglar (1894-1954). Hailed as a benefactor by many and blamed by some for leading members of the Eurasian community to Bahau in Negri Sembilan, Malaysia, during the Japanese Occupation, he remains an enigmatic figure in the long gaze of history.
