RIP to Old Man Lee, an incredible man who "made" an incredible country.

I suspect that this will be the end of the PAP's political reign now, as the old heartlands voters who always went PAP in the belief that MM was still pulling some strings in the background will start looking at other party's

Wonder what this will do for the country now?

November this year i believe! Maybe close enough that sentiment will still be strong enough to keep Baby in.

Many of his policies would never work in a larger or more mature country, and a lot of the more "draconian" laws that remain (such as the graffiti and laws on public gathering) have their roots in the "fight against communism" but for a small, new city nation sometimes a different approach is needed i guess.

He did a fantastic job to pick up the reigns after Malaysia foolishly decided to cut the little red dot adrift
