LKY: Singaporeans know they have such leaders because, over the years, ‘we have not got richer, Singapore has’.
ONE freak election result is all it will take to wipe out Singapore’s success in building up the city state, Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew warned last night.

‘In five years, you can ruin this place and it’s very difficult to pick up the pieces,’ he told 650 participants of a dinner forum at the Shangri-La Hotel.
- I checked the online dictionary for “vociferous” and learns a new vocab! It means making a noisy outcry; clamorous; noisy haha…
Well, I don’t agree that the leaders don’t get richer…maybe they believe a few hundred thousands too little haha.
Anyway, welcome your views on this article!!
