I 'dont know' and I dont need to know about Lew Kuan Yew simply because he has put Singaporeans to become the 1st class. If Singaporeans are the 1st class nation why all the kiddies here cant get my cycnism and behave in the uncivilized manner?!
I dont know about his motives by attacking and bashing other countries in Asia. I cant comprehand why a country like Singapore claimed to be so successful yet could be so volatile by attacking (Malaysia for example) in order to divert foreign investors to change their mind to invest in Malaysia? If you are a 1st class citizens, behave like one and shame for those who claimed they are civilized here while behave the opposite way! Hello!

By reading all of the above answers, you must know by now who is Mr. Lee Kuan Yew.
He is father of current prime minister of Singapore. He is a man with an extra ordinary vision to bring Singapore to its current state in just a few years of time.
He adapted this vision from Israel when nobody was ready to help Singapore in its infancy days, the Israelis taught him few tricks and now you can see the same military model as Israel in the region when there is no threat to Singapore from its neighbours unlike Israel. Singaporeans are pumped for Malaysia as their enemy #1 which is not a reality.
He is father of nation, and in corporate-like Singapore government, he is president while his son is a CEO. Singaporeans should pray for his long life because nobody else is as capable as him, and I wonder, what will happen to Singapore after him!

You dont be attentive to s.h.i.t guy. Its suitable and not a secret that malaysia has double standards while it is composed of ethnic themes! Get your fundamentals suitable. And singapore is a lots better place to take a position in. Why? becoz SG is a much extra mature and state-of-the-paintings financial equipment and society while in comparison with m'sia. Its so lots extra superior than all her neighbours. Of coz traders will decide for Singapore. there's a rationalization why SG survived lots of the 1997 financial disaster on an identical time as each and each of something of Southeast asia, HK and Korea suffered fairly ok. And its no longer success. of course u dont be attentive to a element so quit performing such as you do, I wont even start up on LKY coz who interior the blue hell are u to be judging LKY? U're no longer in good shape.

Lee Kuan Yew is the Father of Modern Singapore.
He is instrumental for the progress of Singapore. He transformed this city state from a Third World Country to a First World Country.

He was the first prime minister of Singapore and now is the minister mentor. He also played an extremely important role in developing the city state from a third world country to a first world country with an advanced economy in less than 40 years.

Yes. Singapore is one of the 1st class nations. And you need to know who is Lee Kuan Yew when you talk about Sg.
I am not Chinese though, I can understand his political policy under managing Singapore.

'SinfullyAlluring' it seems to me that either there is a another Singapore/Lee Kuan Yew in a parallel universe where you live or you know very little about the Singapore/Lee Kuan Yew in this universe.Spend some time on Yahoo Search,you might even learn something.

Dude, you must be seriously hiding under a rock to ask that question (?!) He, LKY was the former PM of S'pore. Currently the Minister Mentor.
On his relevance, I believe it's more so than ever with the succession of his son, Lee Hsien-Loong since 2004; albeit in a more behind the scenes manner.

He's our Mentor Minister.
Many singaporeans admire him for shaping our country to 1st class in less than 40 years.
Yes, his influence is tremendous.

Of course, you know who is LKY but you deliberately asked sarcastically who is LKY and in the same breath, whether he is relevant. I don't know where is your country of orgin but if you're an outsider, I suppose you're damn envious of one of Singapore great leader and secretly wish you had a leader like him.

It goes to say well that you are jealous of him and hate him because he speaks the truth.
Most people who read world news know who LKY is. Even kampong folks know him. Unfortunately you don't.
