First, in 2004, it was the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy within the NUS. Then from 2008, it was the Lee Kuan Yew Water Prize. From 2010, it was the Lee Kuan Yew World City Prize. In 2011, it was the Lee Kuan Yew Centre for Innovative Cities in the new University (SUTD). This month, the Ministry of Education has just announced the Lee Kuan Yew Fund for Bilingualism.
At almost 89 years of age, and with a 13% statistical probability of dying within the next year [1], one cannot help but wonder if Lee Kuan Yew is working to build a legacy – his legacy as he sees it.
More importantly, one also wonders if and how the PAP Government and its members are involved in supporting the legacy-building of one of their fellow Comrades. We will look at each of these building blocks of LKY’s legacy in turn.

The question at the end of the day is this — to what extent should the Government support (directly or indirectly) the legacy-building of PAP MP Lee Kuan Yew?
