“I hope Singaporeans, especially younger ones who have grown up in a modern prosperous nation, will be able to appreciate the conditions of early Singapore, and the drive and determination of our predecessors to face down and overcome their immense challenges,” Hsien Loong said. Deputy Prime Minister Lawrence Wong said in a Facebook post on Friday that Kuan Yew had “always made investing in our people a priority”, including Singapore’s youth.
“I remember being grilled by Mr Lee as he drilled down to the core of issues,” Heng said in his Facebook post, remembering Lee’s stance towards bilingualism as an example of his humility and willingness to adapt in the face of changing circumstances.
