A tribute to Mr Lee Kuan Yew



Recollection

by Chua Hock beng Dennis

I was born in 1959, the year Lee Kuan yew became prime minister of Singapore. When i was 6 years old, I can remember my parents going through a tough period in Singapore history, race riots, religious rights, separation from Malaya, an uncertain future of Singapore. As time goes by, when I was in my teens, things got better. On TV, LKY was prominent in addressing & encouraging the nation. I was given a PSC bursary to study dentistry in S'pore university. That really relieved the burden of my retired teacher father. Today I have a good career and a loving family. Thank you Mr. Lee Kuan Yew. God Bless S'pore.
