Lee Kuan Yew, at Commonwealth Close, Blk 82-83, HDB’s third estate in Queenstown known for its chap lak lao (16 floors) and outdone the colonial SIT’s 1956 Forfar House (14 floors) at Princess Estate, the HDB completed 1000 units of housing within 5 years. This was in May 1965. In the same year, Singapore separated from Malaysia on 9th August 1965. - However, Lee Kuan Yew and the pioneers like Lim Kim San, Goh Keng Swee and S.Rajaratnam, quickly regained composure and set out to work, together with our ah kongs, ah mas, papas and mamas to achieve what seemed impossible in 1965 and made Singapore what it is today. There were sacrifices and there were achievements, the Singapore story is no fairy tale but it is still no mean feat. - I think one of the most inspiring moments was when Lee Kuan Yew addressed and reassured the nation in 9th August 1965. As the leader of a young and uncertain Singapore, he knew he had a duty and he had to be strong: “I would like finally, if I may, just to speak not to you but really to the people of Singapore. I have been so busy in the last few days, I haven't had the time to compose my thoughts in writing to tell you what it is all about and why what has happened has happened." “There is nothing to be worried about it. Many things will go on just as usual. But be firm, be calm.” #LKY #LeeKuanYew #Queenstown #Singapore #illustration #pokpokandaway #李光耀 #新加坡 #RememberingLeeKuanYew #RememberingLKY #RIPLKY

You have dedicated your life to building our nation, our home. Your farsightedness, wisdom and political realism brought us to where we are today. I'm thankful to be a Singaporean. May you rest in peace, sir. #thankyouLKY #rememberingLKY

I still remember how tiring it was, to rehearse for the NDP 2014. My company represented the army contingent and I was my honour to be standing on the floating platform to celebrate the national day with you.We only spend months, sacrificing our time for Singapore, but you gave your entire life to her. Little did I know that it was the last time you will be spending it with us. 'I have spent my life, so much of it, building up this country. There’s nothing more that I need to do. At the end of the day, what have I got? A successful Singapore. What have I given up? My life.' "The first of our founding fathers is no more. He inspired us, gave us courage, kept us together, and brought us here. He fought for our independence, built a nation where there was none, and made us proud to be Singaporeans," Mr Lee Kuan Yew, thank you for contributing so much to Singapore, its saddening to see you leave us, I am proud to be a Singaporean because of what the founding fathers have done. Thank you sir. #leekuanyew #RIPLKY #rememberingLKY

Farewell... Deepest Condolences to PM Lee & his family. _______________________ (Sharing below a personal tribute which I have posted on my own personal account) A Tribute to Mr. Lee Kuan Yew Dear Sir, As much as I hate to see you go, I know it is inevitable that we have to bid goodbye eventually.. Thank you is an understatement for a great leader, who had contributed his whole life to Singapore. It takes a strong-willed man with great wisdom and many sacrifices, to fight for the entire nation from nothing to something. I honestly do not think there is anyone else, who does it better than you. We spend almost every single day complaining about everything from weather, HDB, ERP, COE to CPF. While you have spent all your entire life, trying to make things right for every single one of us. With my deepest gratitude, I salute you, Mr. Lee Kuan Yew. You will always have a special place in my heart and thank you for making me a proud Singaporean! Lishan #rememberingLKY #RIPLKY
