    National Day award for Mrs Lee Kuan Yew

    IF I had a magic wand, I would wave it and make the following happen:

    Present a special National Day award to Mrs Lee Kuan Yew for being the woman behind the man who will always be remembered as founder, leader and forward-thinker of Singapore.

    Add a subject in the school curriculum called How To Be Gracious And Grateful, to plant a positive attitude in our young. A recent family visit to Japan sparked this idea as we experienced clean toilets and polite manners of a people of such a large nation. This can easily be emulated by one so minute as ours.

    Initiate a team of thinkers, preferably retired professionals, to brainstorm ideas on how to enhance the life of young couples so they will not complain it is too expensive here to bring up a child, and see it as a blessing to grow a family and add another citizen to our shrinking population.

    Build 'care-parks' manned by caregivers to take the burden off the shoulders of hard-working newlyweds and answer their perennial worry about who will look after their children when they are at work.

    Set up an online service in the Government's social services arm to attract donations online for the needy so more people can contribute.

    Is there any use to award Mrs LKY with a special National Day award for being LKY's shadow throughout his political life ?

    Amazing that Vivien Tan did not bother to highlight the fact that LKY admitted that he had consulted his shadow before making every major decision.

    Obviously her current status of being in a limbo state in the Twilight Zone is a reflection of her Karma for the wrong advise given that had LKY move to ruthlessly destroy the countless number of lives in Singapore.

    Is there no shame or conscience left in Singaporeans to act with a certain honest decency ?

  • If she is in a state of limbo (as u put it) hope someone wise and close to her would read this book to her : Tolstoy's The Death of Ivan Illyich. It might resonate with her in so MANY ways.
