@channelnewsasia: From our archives: Singapore is "like the durian"; try and squeeze it, you get hurt, said founding Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew. In a speech delivered not long after Singapore separated from Malaysia in 1965, Mr Lee said that while the country is small in size, it's not easy to put the screws on its people. #sgnews #singapore #leekuanyew
iI remember clearly I was 12 in 1974, Sydney watching Lee being interviewed on OZ TV .... my father looked at me and "Son, this man is greatest and wisest leader in the world today" So very true!

looking back and now I respect him because he was not talking big to impress. He gave us a vision and got everyone to make it happen.

I wonder why we don't have a day to just remember him. So that on this day, our media will just keep playing clips of his speeches and his life's work.

Durian has high potassium content. It's avocado or guava which has high protein content.
