Lim Ah Siang Politician

Lim Ah Siang (Chinese: 林亚相) (1853- 19 February 1917), a timber merchant, an steam saw miller, the founder of "Chop Sin Moh" Johor Bahru, was the third leader of the Ngee Heng Kongsi of Johor, a legitimized secret society based in Johor Bahru. Ironic as it may seem, he was appointed to the position not because he was the most prominent Chinese in Johor at the time, but because he was not.
