SINGAPORE - Despite an almost unanimous verdict among Singaporeans on social media that he is perfect for the role, veteran actor Lim Kay Tong admits he had to overcome cowardice before agreeing to play Singapore's founding prime minister Lee Kuan Yew in the local movie 1965.

 

At a press conference on Wednesday, he says: "Two things in the 1960s that are stuck indelibly in my mind - the assassination of John F. Kennedy and Lee Kuan Yew's speech on the separation.

 

Even as a child, you realise the significance of it, you see a different side to the man, a very human side. That press conference really defined him in a different way.

 

"After reading the script, Lim, 60, thought he could take on the part.

Good.

 

Have they also decided who to play the good guys?

I would like to recommend some good actors at below :

 

1) David Marshall play by MCF Darryn

 

2) Lim Yew Hock play by MCF Vid

 

3) Lim Chin Siong play by MCF Thaiyotakamli

 

4) Mrs.Lee Kuan Yew play by MCF Goldbug

 

Should be another World highest selling movie in 2015 [thumbsup]
