It is wrong to use the term ‘founding prime minister’ on Mr Lee Kuan Yew for Mr Lee never founded Singapore. Singapore was founded in 1819, long before Mr Lee was born. Mr Lee became prime minister in 1959 not to an independent Singapore but to a Singapore with full internal self-government. The road towards full internal self-government began with David Marshall, not Mr Lee.
