When the sun rises on Singapore tomorrow, flags will return to full-mast, workers will make their daily commute to work as usual, the National Anthem will be sung and the Pledge recited at schools across the nation.
When mourning has ended, reality will set in.
Somehow, we must find the courage and strength to move on, to grow out of LKY's shadow and forge our own future ahead.
But as we carry on into this new chapter, remember the words of this document; Singapore's Proclamation of Independence.
This was the document that inspired our National Pledge.
So as the sun rises on Singapore tomorrow morning, and forever more, let us never forget the ideals this nation was founded upon.
