RadX Moderator March 29, 2015 Share March 29, 2015 As we move on, let's keep the flame burning and keep our remembrances here as well as discuss as fellow MCFers how we can do our part going forward! Same rules apply here and let's agree to disagree on issues. TOxic statements will be removed accordingly. The discretion is up to the mods and fellow MCFers who will also decide as they let us know. I start: 1. It taught me that as singaporeans, we CAN rise to the occasion! Never have I seen such an overpowering of coming together as ONE NATION. WE have shown it and I am very confident that this is in our blood now! 2. Gratitude runs in all of us and we know where we came from and who we are thankful for. This will last a long time. 3. Success lie not in one man, BUT ONE PERSON steers the ship and the fellow teammates play their part and that is what teamwork is all about! Thank you ↡ Advertisement 17 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celicar Turbocharged March 29, 2015 Share March 29, 2015 (edited) Think and do not only of yourself, but for the greater good. Promise only what you can deliver, deliver on what you have promised. Be a person of integrity, even when others are not looking and even if others may never learn of it. It is a responsibility to oneself.

Lala81 Hypersonic March 29, 2015 Share March 29, 2015 Recognise where we started out, why some of these policies/safeguards are in place (racial quotas, anti-racism/religion extremism crackdowns, ISA, ministerial/civil service pay issues). More importantly is to recognise the fact that as we become more prosperous, we become even more vulnerable (quote from Mr Lee himself). 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was hanging in the balance and all, and for good reason in secularism. Indeed, we are beyond that and we move on. A few fellow catholics I spoke to also called it 'water under the bridge' and let's move on to greater heights! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boringchap Turbocharged March 29, 2015 Share March 29, 2015 Ultimately, he left for us Singapore as we see today. Either we bring Singapore to greater heights, or we screw up and everything comes crashing down. Whatever happens, Lee Kuan Yew's place in history is assured. It is up to us now. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadX Moderator March 29, 2015 Author Share March 29, 2015 Minister Lawrence Wong: Someone sent me this song/video clip, which I thought was very well-done and inspiring. I was also told that the song had been "rejected" by SG50 because the songwriter wasn't Singaporean. I was puzzled and asked my people to check. In fact, this song was submitted to Mediacorp for a song competition, which understandably has its own qualifying criteria. But competition aside, there's really no limitation on who can contribute songs or other materials for SG50. Let's have an inclusive celebration, and embrace all who share our values and ideals, and want to join us in making our Golden Jubilee a truly special one! #SG50 (An original composition for Singapore's 50th Anniversary. For the Prime Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew and the Singapore People, THE #1 ICON. Produced by : Sophie's World Productions - Singapore.)

Raymondism Twincharged March 29, 2015 Share March 29, 2015 This time... he did not get up from his final resting place... instead... he handed his final lesson to the younger generation i.e. those who never saw him in action as PM. Now the younger generation know that a united Singapore can rise up when unexpected... those things taken for granted are hardwork from the pioneer generation... and hopefully more youngsters will step forward and serve the nation instead of just criticising and complaining online... 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was hanging in the balance and all, and for good reason in secularism. Indeed, we are beyond that and we move on. A few fellow catholics I spoke to also called it 'water under the bridge' and let's move on to greater heights! Yes i thought it was a nice touch. To bring it to rest. I think how to celebrate Mr Lee's life is to look at the problems/issues that he faced and understand the complexity of the issues that we are facing now. To be an informed electorate, we need to understand what our leaders are thinking. Unfortunately though some of our ministers try to explain, i think many of the younger generation just treat it like noise or critique it piecemeal. While he is very quotable, i thought many Singaporeans (especially the younger ones) should have looked deeper into the history of Singapore under Mr Lee's stewardship rather than just keep talking about soundbites. There are plenty of documentaries and special features out there cos of this event that wasn't available on youtube or the internet before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tianmo Hypersonic March 29, 2015 Share March 29, 2015 Even as he leaves.....he was still worrying about water for Singapore........and even on his final journey...... he summoned rain.......which is water for all Singaporean.....
