Ng Swee Hong
Ng Swee Hong (Chinese: 黃垂豐; pinyin: Huáng Chuífēng) (1934–2006)[1] was a Malaysian Chinese businessman who founded Pacific Andes company.
Ng Swee Hong moved to Singapore in 1963 where he operated trading and real estate ventures until in the wake of general economic depression in the 1980s, and his business were forced to close with about $30 million of debt.[2]
In 1985, Ng and his family moved to Hong Kong, where he and his son Joo Siang founded Pacific Andes, which grew from a regional trader of shrimp to a global fish harvest, processing, and distribution company.[2] Ng remained as chairman until his death in 2006.[2]

gollark: I agree. It's precisely [NUMBER OF AVAILABLE CPU THREADS] parallelized.
gollark: > While W is busy with a, other threads might come along and take b from its queue. That is called stealing b. Once a is done, W checks whether b was stolen by another thread and, if not, executes b itself. If W runs out of jobs in its own queue, it will look through the other threads' queues and try to steal work from them.
gollark: > Behind the scenes, Rayon uses a technique called work stealing to try and dynamically ascertain how much parallelism is available and exploit it. The idea is very simple: we always have a pool of worker threads available, waiting for some work to do. When you call join the first time, we shift over into that pool of threads. But if you call join(a, b) from a worker thread W, then W will place b into its work queue, advertising that this is work that other worker threads might help out with. W will then start executing a.

gollark: Maybe I should actually benchmark it.
