The level of hate Singaporeans have for Lee Kuan Yew is simply amazing. People are wishing LKY died, or complaining he was an inferior leader. Sure LKY may have done some really ugly and traitorous things like destroying other Chinese dialects and cultures and enforcing everyone to speak Mandarin only. But let's not forget that it was under his rule that Singapore turned into an "First World" Asian Tiger, sure youmay argue back he was not entirely responsible for changing Singapore, or he was only one of the pieces that changed Singapore, but he was still the core that made the changes happened. I'm not denying the fact that many other Singaporean figures contributed significantly, however the contribution by Lee Kuan Yew should not be denied.
