<!-- story content : start -->
THE only son of the late Dr Goh Keng Swee broke his silence yesterday as he talked about his father and the time they spent with his mother Alice Woon.
Mr Goh Kian Chee, 66, described his father as a man of integrity and said his mother was supportive of Dr Goh's political career.
He readily answered queries on his family when he met reporters, but declined to respond to some questions, such as his parents' divorce, and his relationship with his stepmother, Dr Phua Swee Liang.
His parents separated in 1986, and Dr Goh remarried five years later. Mr Goh said his 85-year-old mother remains well, but moves about with great difficulty.
She lives in a condominium in Bishan with a maid, and Mr Goh, his wife, two sons and three grandsons visit her at least once a week.
Mr Goh, who retired in 2005 as a research manager in a stockbroking firm, spoke at the Pyramid Club in Goodwood Hill where he grew up.

Must the son, justify his father's sins? :o everybody's wondering why he did not as a son delivered the eulogy...but a 17 year old looking 47 delivered a 'half-washes' one...:p

Yeah you have a point. If I were him and I was actually closer to my mother then you can be sure I'd break free of my golden shackles right this very moment and go out and grab a cab just so I could go find her and live with her everyday for the rest of my life. Or her life, whichever is more appropriate.

As the only son of the deceased he should have put his foot down from day one that it was to be his decision that he as the by-product of his biological mother and his deceased father be entitled to grieve together with her mother as a family for the departure of his father, the divorce of his mother from his father notwithstanding. There is no point now for him to come out to say this and that for his mother when he has failed that duty of care and dignity owed to her biological mother as her son that resulted in his mother having to grieve alone in solitude. Indeed in Chinese culture once the head of the family passed on the responsibility of the family automatically passes on to the eldest son and not to the widow. I was so taken aback that the President could have handed the decease's medal and the State Flag to the widow when it should have been handed to the son as custom dictate. What would be the consequences if the widow should remarry for one must remember that her vow to her deceased husband ends upon his death. Remember the famous line of '..In death do we part." It is sad to see that even in such esteemed Chinese family the procedure of succession is badly handle like chop suey. How to respect him as a man?

___________Late Dr Goh's son says his mother deserves tribute for her role[/size]

</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>SINGAPORE : The only son of the late Dr Goh Keng Swee on Tuesday thanked those who had expressed deep concern for his father and who had gone to the wake.

Mr Goh Kian Chee said these include many who knew his mother well.

Madam Alice Woon divorced Dr Goh 20 years ago, after 40 years of marriage. She was his first wife.

In a statement, Mr Goh Kian Chee said his mother had spent the best years of their lives together, and she had stood by Dr Goh when he was young, energetic and "at his creative best".

He said: "She deserves a tribute for her role, and the nation ought to remember this when it wants to appreciate Dr Goh's life and contribution to Singapore."

Mr Goh added that he is grateful to the government for honouring Dr Goh with a state funeral.

He explained that his mother did not attend the funeral as she has not been mobile for the last five years.

He also said he will be bringing his mother for a meeting with a pastor on Wednesday to help her find consolation following Dr Goh's death.

Much of the once-dignified and glorious Chinese culture has been but voluntarily washed away by the Chinese people of today. For all that has happened since the late 19th Century I do pretty much understand why the Japanese and even some of those Koreans greatly despise the Chinese people.
 
Pyramid Club is a Freemason's club. Pyramid being one of the Freemason's symbol. The US dollar has an all seeing eye above a pyramid. Goh Keng Swee is a prominent Freemason and the first president of the club. For more secrets about Freemasonry in Sinapore, read this:

Interesting read, great find! The whole thing sounds rather sinister doesn't it?

Thanks for sharing your knowledge.:)
 
The article also notes that the Pyramid Club is currently helmed by George Yeo and Mah Bow Tan:

George Yeo Yong-Boon, the Minister for Trade and Industry and one of the Government's most promising front-benchers, is the Pyramid's president, assisted by vice-president Mah Bow Tan, who is the Minister for National Development. Michael Lim Choo San, the chairman of the National Healthcare Group, which manages half of the island's hospitals and clinics, is listed as honorary treasurer

What implications does this have on Singapore's policy on industry, housing, and healthcare?
