New book by MM Lee to be launched

A NEW book based on 16 interviews with Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew will be launched next Friday.

Entitled Lee Kuan Yew: Hard Truths To Keep Singapore Going, it covers a range of topics, such as the future of Singapore's political system, immigration and the rise of China and India. He also spoke at length about his family, children and grandchildren.

For the book, MM Lee engaged Straits Times journalists at the Istana over a period of 10 months from December 2008.

Headed by The Straits Times editor Han Fook Kwang, the Singapore Press Holdings team took another nine months to write and edit the chapters.

Each of the 11 chapters starts with an introductory segment that puts an issue in context before going into a question-and-answer format.

Published by Straits Times Press, the book will be launched by MM Lee at The St Regis Singapore.

It will be available at bookstores for $39.90. Orders can also be made by e-mailing [email protected], or calling 6319-8347 or 6319- 8341.

The book can also be bought online from the Straits Times Press Online Bookstore (www.stpressbooks.com.sg) from next Saturday.

FTs won't need to buy .
They will be given
free as complementary items when
pronounced new citizens . :)

Only Singaporeans will pay for it .
 
Corrections! It should be $19.95 since it is half truth.

You are just too optimistic to believe it is even half truth. One sided interview by his own employees who tried to gain his favour and write a book for him and called it a legacy. I would prefer a novel anytime than this.

Ols Man : You want the truth ?? It is going to cost more than S$39.90

Citizens : OK, I take this, but please give me discount.
 
133th???? not 154th????

yeah, we are getting better and better in press freedom. maybe in 50 years, it can be top 10.
 
$39.90 for a pack of lies?
Old Fart realy thinks sinkies are DAFT.
 
Should have just condensed the contents in a little red book; as they were meant to be in the first place.
 
$39.90....AFFORDABLE! :D

But then...Why pay....I rather wait for National Library to stock it...check under "Fiction" .....together with "Why Am I Here" ;)
