​@@Adam50457 Honestly, what's your problem? First off, what evidence do you have to prove the story is fake? Just because the story CAN be potentially fabricated doesn't mean it IS for a fact fake. That's a common fallacy. Second, "WHITEWASH a coward & TRAITOR!!!" I assume you refer to Lee Kuan Yew? Oh, the disrespect! Look, nobody is perfect, and his leadership definitely isn't to everyone's tastes, but it is undeniable that without him, Singapore might barely survive. The economy might be so bad you might never get a chance to sit confortably at home and angrily blame LKY on your keyboard. And why is he a TRAITOR!!! ? Lastly, don't you think it makes for a more intriguing story for Lee Kuan Yew to have had a more dangerous survival story?
