Lee is only controversial from a Western perspective. You can call him a benevolent dictator or a flawed democrat, but the truth is that he did only what was needed regardless of ideology, political correctness, or even human rights. If it works, he would do it.

Lee Kuan yew and ngo dinh diem are the brothers from past life. I wish the event would be different for vietnam. They both were smart, unapologetic, enthusiasm, and humble human being. I do wish the history could rewrite if these events happened differently.

LKY built a successful and prosperous country. He recognised early on that Singapore lacked many resources but its biggest source of success were the people! He may have been strict and focused but that tough love laid the foundations for the success of Singapore. Malaysia turning its back on Singapore was a bitter pill for Lee to swallow but it was also the best thing that happened. Singapore is a beautiful and wonderful nation. I’m not suggesting that there aren’t problems, it is not a utopian country and there is without a doubt much work to be done and I believe in time Singapore will surpass many countries as it already has done so. You may want to call it a benevolent dictatorship but it is home to many successful companies and the Singaporean passport is one that will open many doors as it carries significant weight! Other western democracies have much to learn from Singapore!

<<@busymangaming1975
says :
He is not a controversial person at all. Only called so by overly harsh western critics that are not being fair. His contribution to his country and to the whole world is so significant, the world would be a much darker place today without him. He set a standard for other political leaders in the world to follow. Indirectly he improves everyones lives. More directly, Singapore was the model in which modern Chinese government based themselves in. China manage to pull its vast population out of poverty, the largest improvement in standard of living for the most amount of people in the whole history of the world.

I applaud LKY as despite his harshness, he was fair. No country.not even Greece, Rome, the USA, England, Japan or China have created successful economies without at least a few incidents of favoring one group over another.

Which politician does everything everyone likes? Not even Mr Lee. But which politician can consistently win the trust of his country for 30 years? Mr Lee did. Which statesman can turn his country from a land of nothing to a land of plenty? Mr Lee could. He is a great statesman, he strongly believed what was right for his people and he made things happen the right way. Although he did have flaws. Who doesn't? So, is Mr Lee controversial? Much less than those who could only get low ratings in the polls.

I do not know what was so controversial about LKY, only the hyprocrite westerner called him this because they were jealous about his achievement.LKY has built a country that surpassed most western countries and to all those sheeps like Singaporean that followed the western idiology blindly if LKY needs your agreement of what he did for Singapore , Singapore will not be what she is today. he was a genius and commoners will never understood his plan.

The United States and Europe criticizing what Singapore has done and their ways... really? They should take a closer look at the state of their streets, their people, their society and should seriously, seriously do some soul searching and stop pretending their values and ideals are so superior. They definitely aren't.

Lky have always never aligned to western form of democracy. But aligned Asian strict values with democracy. It irks the Americans and it shows in their media and journalism, If you watch all the western journalist interview with lky, you can tell journalist have tried so many times to put him under pressure and make him break. However, lky even at his later years was able to put them down- it was a masterclass interview on how this Asian politician is running them in circles esp most of them stereotypically assume he is dumb.
