First of all, congratulations to legendary “Appliance King” Benito Lim — father of Automatic Appliances boss Samie Lim and Abenson Appliances/Waltermart malls boss Wilson Lim — for recently being honored as the “Father of Appliance Retailing in the Philippines.” Samie Lim told the STAR that he foresees continued robust appliance sales growth and overall positive Philippine economic growth in 2009.

We asked Samie Lim where we could get the better deal on appliances–his own Automatic Centre (which has nine branches to date) or his brother Wilson’s Abenson. He answers with an enigmatic–as well as diplomatic–smile.

As a kid, Samie dreamed of becoming president of the Philippines. But his life’s path lay elsewhere. It all began, he recounts, with a simple parental order and a response from a dutiful son.
