SINGAPORE: Former minister mentor Lee Kuan Yew is visiting Istanbul, Turkey from Tuesday till Friday to attend the JPMorgan Chase International Council Meeting.

A statement from Mr Lee's office said this would be followed by his visit to the US till 24 October.

On 18 October, Mr Lee will receive the Lincoln Medal at the historic Ford's Theatre in Washington DC.

The Lincoln Medal is awarded to individuals who illuminate or reflect former US president Abraham Lincoln's legacy of leadership and service in their body of work, accomplishments or personal attributes.

Mr Lee will be the first Asian to receive the award.

Previous recipients include Nobel Laureate Archbishop Desmond Tutu, and former first lady and current US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

While in Washington DC, Mr Lee will also meet the White House Chief of Staff William Daley, the National Security Advisor Tom Donilon, and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Martin Dempsey.

Mr Lee will then proceed to New York where he will speak at a Capital Group dinner on 20 October 2011.

In addition, Mr Lee, who is also the senior advisor to Government of Singapore Investment Corporation (GIC), will attend GIC events, and meet other prominent US personalities during his visit.

After years of playing dirty politics with the Americans of cos they will give this Dictator an Award.

Americans are the biggest assholes, They rape countries with resources and say its because they have Weapons of Mass destruction and blah blah blah...
But they dont go tackling down N.K, or countries like Congo and Somalia.. The dirties people/country in the world is USA. Full of Propaganda AND B.S... Even their own people are so fucking stupid that they think they live in a Land of Freedom.. No wonder Americans are known to be the stupidest people on Earth. Sinkies are also in the Top 10.

can we expect GIC to buy more toxic US banks after this visit?

GIC save American bankrupt banks. The former GIC chairman Phony Tan had even hinted to US that he is capable of buying a few more bankrupt banks. Then there was also that loser Ho Ching who was given some award by US some time back. It's kind of making LKY and daughter in law happy for nothing.

LKY is such a great man. what level of representative will the Americans send to attend LKY funeral when it happens. anything less than the U.S President himself to attend and pay the respects will be an insult to LKY and Singapore. :wink:
