for the political struggle belligerents, what matters is the result, the truth is not important. from a history perspective, the outcome is not the most important, it is more critical to ascertain the truth. do we really know the truth of what happened then ?

Only when the Fall of the Lee Dynasty, the truth will be told by the Victors.

Character assassination has gone beyond the grave.

By hammering the last nails into the coffins of his father's opponents, Hsien Loong is too daft to realise he is sowing the seeds for a most vile and vicious form of vilification when his father dies.

It's another chance at national reconciliation that goes a-begging.

Lee Hsien Loong forgot that his daddy was originally a hardcore leftist himself, always agitating against the British colonial masters.

Very selective narrative of history.

May I be so humble as to ask Prime Miniature
To read this passage carefully
Then tell me which part he does not understand

................. I am unalterably opposed to communism because it exalts the state over the individual and over the family, and because its system contains a lack of freedom of speech, of protest, of religion, and of the press, which is characteristic of a totalitarian regime. The way of opposition to communism, however, is not to imitate its dictatorship, but to enlarge individual human freedom. There are those in every land who would label as "communist" every threat to their privilege. But may I say to you, as I have seen on my travels in all sections of the world, reform is not communism. And the denial of freedom, in whatever name, only strengthens the very communism it claims to oppose.

wartime kempeitai, post-war allied mass recruitment of former (local and jap) kempeitai agents to work as moles and spies, safehouse and re-indoctrination refugee and trainee in sanctuaries in cameron highlands, pre-independence agent sponsored and sanctioned by the brits, brit-favored plant in left-leaning pro-independence organizations in sg, the west's chosen son. and the rest is history. lcs was more pro-independence than a leftist, but he wasn't one of the groomed kingsmen. that made all the difference. and look who cum and invested in sg in the 60s after power was secured. :p

Pinky can condemn all he likes. The West wont impose sanctions,
