I believe that many of you have heard the sad news. If you have not, I am sorry I have to bring to you this message.
Our founding father, Mr Lee Kuan Yew, has passed on as of 23/03/2015, 03:18(Singapore time).
He was known as a charging lion, a father. The Cambridge educated man devoted his whole life to the building of the nation. In his hands, his leadership, we developed from a third-world nation, into a first-world country.
He worked hard, thinking of ways to improve the conditions in Singapore. His perseverance, his determination, his passion, his dedication has brought us to where
"I've spent a whole lifetime building this nation, and as long as I'm in charge, nobody is gonna knock it down."
This is by far, my favourite quote of Mr Lee. Indeed, he spent his whole life building our country, from being our very 1st Prime Minister, to being a Minister Mentor, the 91-year-old continued serving the nation. He was in charge of Tanjong Pajar GRC for more than a decade.
He started the bilingual education system, which allowed us to be able to fluent in both languages, which in turn, allowed us to be able to carve our career in both ENglish and CHinese countries. Yet, we have people like Amos Yee being ungrateful.
Rip Mr Lee Kuan Yew and may you rest in peace.
Peacing Out,
