At businessman Kris Wiluan’s 70th birthday celebration held at the Capella Singapore last November, it's easy to gather the sort of person he really is, just by listening to the tribute speeches made. Economic Development Board chairman Beh Swan Gin praised him for furthering and cementing Singapore-Indonesia business ties, while The Wire Group chairman Iqbal Jumabhoy called Kris a worthy and loyal friend. His wife, Elizabeth, then expressed her love for her husband and thanked him for giving her everything she needed in life with the greatest gift being their three children, Angel, Mike and Richard, and eight grandchildren.
