What were the values, philosophies and ideas that defined Mr Lee Kuan Yew’s leadership? From defending hard choices to inspiring citizens, the late founding Prime Minister of Singapore had spent decades laying the foundation for the country's success.

To commemorate the 100th anniversary of his birth on Sep 16, we combed through 150 hours of footage to bring you this documentary that follows him through the different stages of his political career. #LKY100 #LeeKuanYew

What was the late Mr Lee Kuan Yew like in person? Singaporeans and residents who met and interacted with him regularly tell us about their encounters with Singapore's founding Prime Minister. Their stories shed light on not just his leadership style, but also his values and aspirations. #LKY100 #LeeKuanYew

It is ironic that Gahment is honoring LKY legacy by dishonoring all his death wishes…

LKY wanted a quick death and even signed a AMD… but was shafted a tube down his throat for mechanical ventilation to extend his life…

LKY wanted his house demolished after his death… but was now hanging on being gazettes for preservation…

LKY doesn’t want any monuments of himself… but gahment immortalized him with coins, founder memorial etc

i really really liked the guy. He's the only guy that when he's on tv, i stop everything that i'm doing.
As such , i'm gona respect his wishes of not commemorating or memorialising him.
