The pioneer generation can never forget PM Lee Kuan Yew. Those who are still living will ever be thankful to him for what is done when we compare Singapore today and Singapore then!

LKY is one of my absolute favorite and most interesting political leaders and DEFINITELY does not get talked about nearly enough. He was an absolute genius and single handedly pulled Singapore from being a poor island nation to one of the best places to live on the planet in the span of 30 years. What a man.

LKY WENT FROM "WE'RE COOKED" TO "WE'RE GOATED," WHILE HIS PRODIGAL SONS, NEPO KINS, AND INNER-RING SUCKERS WENT FROM "WE'RE GOATED" TO RUNNING A NATION LIKE AN OVERPRICED DYSTOPIA: 1. THE CAR SCAM (COE): YOU DON'T EVEN BUY A TOYOTA COROLLA THEREāYOU PAY $100,000+ JUST FOR A PIECE OF PAPER (COE) FOR THE PRIVILEGE TO LEASE IT FOR 10 YEARS! ON DAY 3,650, THAT COUNTDOWN HITS ZERO AND YOUR $200,000 RIDE GETS LITERALLY SENT TO THE SCRAP YARD OR EXPELLED FROM THE COUNTRY! 2. THE HDB (GOVT HOUSING) "OWNERSHIP" LIE: YOU DON'T OWN YOUR PUBLIC HOUSINGāYOU LEASE IT FROM THE GOVERNMENT FOR 99 YEARS. AND GOOD LUCK WHEN THAT LEASE HITS THE 60-YEAR MARK! BANKS FLIP OUT AND REFUSE TO GIVE FULL MORTGAGE LOANS TO BUYERS, AND YOUR MILLION-DOLLAR FLAT TURNS INTO A TICKING TIME BOMB WORTH EXACTLY ZERO AT YEAR 99! 3. BONUS ROUND: KIDS SUFFER THROUGH 12-HOUR STUDY DAYS JUST TO FINALLY CRY "I NOT STUPID," ONLY TO SPEND THE REST OF THEIR LIVES RUNNING ON A GOLD-PLATED HAMSTER WHEEL THAT NEVER STOPSāOR GET REPLACED BY IMPORTS (WHITE PAPER AND PRs)! 4. THE BOTTOM LINE: LKY BUILT A NATION TO SAVE HIS PEOPLE; THE NEXT GENERATION TURNED IT INTO A HYPER-EFFICIENT, PAY-TO-WIN MATRIX WHERE YOU WORK YOUR ENTIRE LIFE JUST TO LEASE AIR AND CONCRETE! TALK ABOUT AN ABSOLUTE SYSTEMIC FLEX THAT LEAVES EVERYONE BROKEāDUHHH! šøš¬ššš„ PS: HEY DONT BLAME ME, BLAME SOCIETY AND AI

No doubts he had done a great job. But Politic is a dirty game. No one likes Authoritarian. Restricted many creative ideas and freedom to express. Example: Chinese language and talented Singaporean left Singapore

This is how impressive LKY is. Charlie Munger is widely regarded as one of the greatest investors of the 20th century, not just for his personal returns but for his profound influence on the investment world. In an interview, he said he has 2 busts in his house. 1st is Benjamin Franklin and the 2nd is Lee Kuan Yew. That right there tells you alot about LKY.

<<@HoangNguyen61783
says :
Lee Kuan Yew provided critical, pragmatic support to the United States during the Vietnam War by acting as a staunch anti-communist voice in Southeast Asia, providing logistical facilities for U.S. forces, and advocating that American presence bought time for neighboring nations to strengthen their own economies and resilience against communism. Lets not forget he supported the Pol pot regime.

says :
I just finished his book and honestly, I canāt think of many leaders with Lee Kuan Yewās level of wisdom, ingenuity, and grit. If he were Western, the narrative machine might have turned him into a near mythic figure. Instead, because he didnāt bend to Western pressure or approval, heās often boxed into simplistic labels like ādictator.ā Whatever one thinks of his methods, the results are undeniable - transforming Singapore from third world to first world within a generation is extraordinary. I hope Singaporeans truly appreciate how rare that leadership was.

<<@hanullee8166

There is nothing controversial about him. He is just an anomaly in the best sense of the word. If Machiavelli had lived long enough to see all the kings and dictators of our times, Lee Kuan Yew would be his poster child, the true embodiment of the "prince"

Lee Kuan Yew is a rare and divinely ordained soul. What he did with a bare island is no ordinary manās feat! Words cannot do justice to his lifeās accomplishments.

Every dictators sponsor by English, French or Americans stole from their people, enriched themselves and families while their people were oppressed. Lew kwan Yew change his Country from land of shackes and illiterate villagers. To one of the Richest most modern cities in the World. Only a very few world leaders of 20th Century has that distinction.

LKW proves what a lot of populists who can't see beyond their pathetic and feeble ethnic identities don't want to believe. That civic nationalism with skilled immigrants under a multiracial monocultural society works. This is a concept that has seldomly been genuinely tried throughout the world. Along with Singapore, I can only think of The UAE, Switzerland, and to a lesser degrees, Canada, The UK, Yugoslovia, and New Zealand adopting this philosophy. And ironically, Malaysia is starting to follow Singapore's blueprint in its recent economic rise. Rest in Power, Lee Kwan Yew.
