@Kalogerosstilitis2RevengeoftheJunta @TrevorGoodchild I would like to hear a based summary of Lee Kuan Yew if someone has the time and knowledge. I am familiar with his work (his work being Singapore) and have been there many times. While I've heard liberals (in Singapore) criticize him for being too authoritarian and persecuting political thought, what I've read about him seems very positive and Singapore's infrastructure is impressive. His quotes on racism, ethnicity, Malays, and democracy seem based and correct. Whenever someone mentions "multi-culturalism" I immediately think that the only place that managed to work was Singapore, mostly because the authoritarian hand of Yew never allowed things to get out of hand in the natural competition between the racial groups. I appreciated how he believed in racial primacy (the Chinese) in his hand-forged county and encouraged childbirth. Would love to read some informed thoughts on him. Perhaps several long comments to bring readers up to speed? He presented a model that worked. Thanks.
