Recap 2015…

SINGAPORE - Mr Lee Kuan Yew's contributions to Singapore outweigh the criticisms made by opposition, said Singapore People's Party secretary-general Chiam See Tong on Friday afternoon.
"I think Singapore is very lucky to have Mr Lee as her first prime minister," he told reporters later.
Recounting the first time he met Mr Lee, Mr Chiam said he was "very stern".
"I don't think he knew me at that time. He said, 'Who is this oppositionist?' Mr Chiam, I'll see you in Parliament.' But the way he said it, it was as if he said, 'I'll see you in the boxing ring.'"

According to Wiki
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiam_See_Tong
Chiam's name, "See Tong" (时中; Shízhōng), which means "punctual" or "timely", was given to him by his grandfather, Chiam Seng Poh, who was a revolutionary involved in the uprisings in the final years of the Qing dynasty before the 1911 Revolution. Chiam Seng Poh had fled China with his family after one of those failed uprisings and settled in Muar, Malaya. Chiam's maternal grandfather, Lim Liang Quee, was part of the Straits Chinese elite. Mabel Lim, one of Chiam's maternal aunts, married Kwa Soon Siew, a brother-in-law of Singapore's first prime minister Lee Kuan Yew.
Chiam's father, Chiam Heng Hong, was a businessman who dealt in commodities like rubber, pepper and sugar. Chiam's mother, Lily Lim, was a founder of the 7th Singapore Company of the Girls' Brigade at Prinsep Street Presbyterian Church in the 1950s. Chiam Heng Hong and Lily Lim had two sons, Chiam See Tong and Chiam Joon Tong

Don't mix up what you wish and what the truth really is. By now Roy Ngern should also be writing 繁體。

The immigration issue is festering beneath the surface. Concerns extend beyond just competition for white collar jobs; the very fabric of our national compact is being questioned. When adaptation is demanded of true blue S'poreans while the Govt seemingly bends for foreigners and new SG citizens, a quiet but potent resentment brews among the local community. This isn't a policy problem; it is an identity crisis. Ignoring it will only turn more S'poreans to become anti-PAP and anti-foreigners.
