Loss

It's not that i respect Tan Sri Lim Goh Tong alot, i don't really look up to him. Okay maybe for his hardwork from zero, and turned this nation into a well-known tourism destination. Mainly from his development of Genting Highlands, Tan Sri Lim Goh Tong was no stranger to the casino world.

But, as i was reading The Sun newspaper (because it's free), i came across this sentence from him, taken from his autobiography called My Story. He told his wife earlier in his development days of Genting Highlands, that he met a landslide during his trip to the hill. He was almost dead, and went to hell. In hell, he was told that his work in this world was not finished, and was sent back to earth to finish his work.

I've been hearing news that people went to heaven and were told by God that their work was not finished. But this was my first time hearing news that people went to hell and were sent back to earth to finish their work.

So i was wondering, what great task that Tan Sri Lim Goh Tong was given by the devil, until he was sent back to earth from hell. Later i found out, he was developing Genting Highlands when that incident happened, and that was to develop casinos. The devil was actually happy that the deceased was helping him develop casinos, until the devil was happy to send him back to the earth.

Secondly, i was greatly hit by his statement earlier. He knew he was going to hell, he knew what hell was going to be like for him, yet he didn't regret his religion or belief. Maybe he was not exposed much to the truth of heaven and hell, or there was a Saviour waiting for him.

All in all, his death was a great loss to our nation. But i believe he was a greater loss to the Kingdom of Heaven.
