We wish to pay tribute to a true visionary, Singapore’s founding father, Mr Lee Kuan Yew. The late Mr Lee was indeed a great man who shaped the destiny of many, and was universally respected by his contemporaries around the world.

As a nation, we now enjoy the fruits of Singapore’s success because of the extraordinary leadership, foresight and hard work put forth by the late Mr Lee and his team in building up this country and making Singapore a better place for us all. We are completely in his debt and are extremely grateful for his contributions and sacrifices for this nation. 

To honour his legacy as the architect of modern Singapore, the baton is now with each and every one of us to continue building upon his achievements. Let us follow his example and live impactful lives to help make this world a better place for future generations.
