Jamaica Gleaner News - Powerful philanthropy - Friday | September 15, 2006: "Last Friday morning, the day after Michael Lee Chin donated $100 million to Northern Caribbean University for doubling its nursing programme, I was on the Breakfast Club alongside Rev. Devon Dick and Rev. Garnet Roper. And what were we discussing on air? 'Is the Church losing its relevance?' Well!

Billionaire Lee Chin, who has made the Forbes list of richest persons in the world, said he was making a sound investment in the donation to the NCU Nursing School, an investment which would deliver secure returns. Lee Chin is known to pick winners. That's how he became rich. And for this investment he has picked a church school and nursing, both of which tend to be cinderellas for 'investment'."
