He was not the only one who shed tears. Singapore is a miracle. An oasis in the desert. Let us keep it up.
I miss the daring, frank and intelligent speech from the earlier days.
We can thank political correctness for what we have now
So much hardships, sweats and tears contributed by great leaders, finally bear the fruits for the world to see the successful of Singapore in today's world.
not today. we are sinking with overcrowding, non checked inflow of 3drd world foreigner doing menial jobs locals can do , hatred for the govt, corruption inthe hightest levels, .. success? only on the surface. we cant even get our cpf at 55. they keep pushng it further and further
When LKY said "we made it so" I felt that 🔥
Exactly right? So many people still try to discredit singapore's achievement by saying its just at a right place at a right time, but our forefathers MADE the place to be that attractive
1:58 🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈
Love or hate the man but he can definitely deliver a speech
Without referring unto any scripts.
LKY’s vocabulary damn 👍🏻
Greats English teacher
@@seceber cambridge educated and a lawyer. of course. Besides being brilliant. he worked evereyday to better himself
Just from his speech, my vocabulary also increased 😂
Only LKY makes sense of all the speeches. But different leaders have different styles. But nothing really compares to the real OG LKY. Damn he’s one badass leader!!! Wish all leaders are like him. He’s got dignity, he standby his principles and he cares for his people for real for real. Long live Singapore!!! 🇸🇬
4th would be LHL's son?
@@googlgfacef218 That will be the end of Singapore, if he continues with his father's economic policy. LHL has not transformed Singapore into something better during his reign. He, only, at best continues with LKY's policy. Worse his whole economic policy hinges on bringing in migrants to increase GDP instead of increasing productivity. The outcome of his policy is to make Singapore vulnerable to epidemics.
@@googlgfacef218 no, Ho Ching's relatives
Hard times create strong man. Strong man create good times.
Everyone knows the next line, but hope that we stay here and never squander the good times.
Good times create shit man, and shit man ruin good times.
"Whe made it so." - LKY
That's SG's biggest flex, it made itself the way it is today. It was a choice and a choice they continue to make everyday.
Can we imagine what would be Singapore today without this man. The man who transformed this nation. Proud of you my hero.
@Abdul Karim Mohamed Ghouse
Yes, correct. Without this MAN, Singapore would probably be even better with REAL Civil Liberties and a RESPECTABLE Human Rights records.
Not to mention that most of the population of Singapore would not be Working till they dropped dead for SLAVE WAGES today while ministers and their cronies get paid MILLIONS.
Abdul Kareem
Goondu Singaporean like you one too many This country is heading a downward spiral direction for sure.. Leadership?? Pui!
without him, probably singapore would be a country nobody give a shit, just like malaysia.
@@Callsign-Blade_RunnerSG lol joker, without this man, Singapore will be much more worse than malaysia, even water need to be imported . you living in your dream ah
1:54 was the best part IMO. The "it wasn't, you know," is powerful.
Such good times and incredibles PMs. Those years they took the reign feels like Singapore's golden years. Grateful to have grown up in a country with such leaders 🙏🏻
Thank you for compiling this. This is really Gold. Looking back at 2022. I can see what Singapore has gone through.
The thing about Mr Lee was that he had absolute faith in himself. If only we lesser mortals had the strength of his convictions. 😊
Where have all the years gone? We have come a long way. Grateful for every of our great leaders and statesmen. Hormat and utmost respect.
Hormat Dan Hormat
',,,,and if its wrong , I will take the responsibility!' LISTEN TODAYS SINGAPORE LEADERS AND LEARN!
josephine teo
@@alphaomega9387 today even if you write to your MP they dont bother to reply.
Indeed the way he represent himself was magnificient
Really fantastic,,, God bless Singapore.
I really wish LKY got up
No , if LKY rise from the dead, it means , as he said , SG is in very serious trouble !
me too
Hey handsome😉
Our greatest Leaders in SG. Hope we continue produce such leaders to lead Singapore to the Future!
Excellent
The time has come for a change.
He gave a change.
Now the time has come for A CHANGE
and may i just ask, Change to ...?
What exactly are you looking for in a change?
and we;re faced with doom !
Edmund Sim change a new government. PAP has let us down, reformed this city state into a dictatorship, without freedom of speech
Singapore don't belong to the people, if someone says Singapore belongs to the people, they are in denial. If Singapore belongs to the people, there would be freedom of speech and the people would not feel fear. There would be mutual respect between the leaders and the people
@@fed02 dumb
LKY a genius, the one and only.
Our great man, his speech is remarkable, today plenty try to copy his style but will never can
2:53 oh please do, sir
LKY speech made me so proud of my forefathers and my blood so hot to be a Singaporean..damnn
LKY had that posh old British accent with the prominent "r"s
Great speeches
Pormer 🇸🇬 PM Lee Kuan yew.. good friend with pormer President Indonesia 🇮🇩 Suharto.. I Salut both of them..
Perhaps the most rational thinking leader of all time, for any country, ever. I'm jealous, because I'm not Singaporean.
I like Lee kuan yew, he looks like such a good person😊 -from🇲🇾
That's depend your definition of "a good person". I would say he definitely a great politician, influencer and leader.
I'm so grateful to had one in our nation. I missed him.
People of strong character like Lee Kuan Yew, are becoming less and less in this world.
In different times we need different kind of leaders -
Still so relevant now. Not a man you can mess with👏👏👏👏👏👍
Great man create history of a legend to be learn read known understand see feel digest ( young generation must learn from history )
The "Mee Siam Mai Hum" speech is probably the most iconic one! Everyone actually burst into laughter! 😂😂
YAM WAI MENG burst into laughter?
Find it funny too, now parliament have “mee Siam ai hum”.
Cockles of Heart from Jamus.
In the olden days smart, soul brightening and words that make us proud is been made. Then on speeches is made to be laugh at. Even when on the way home, we laugh over the jokes been made.
2:45 ~ 2:55 best of the best PM speech
How his speech can bring so many followers
We have evolved from
(2:45) Lee Kuan Yew
to
(5:44) Goh Chok Tong
(8:21) Lee Hsien Loong
America needs this man to lead.
I'm originally from the Philippines. And Singapore's government system is always the Philippines' role model when it comes to improving the lives of its citizens.
Lee Kuan Yew should be the role model of our presidents
Love you LKY..
Wish my country had someone like you sir. Instead what we have got is clowns without balls to stand for the country. You'll be an inspiration BOSS. 🙂
Love you all
Miss the 80s
Love u a true hero was born and gone
mah man goh chok tong just dissed PCK on national tv
What A Statemans And Their Statements. Unbelievably Singapore Shine Because of Their Thought Process to Make Singapore Star Shinning Brightly of Development, Infrastructure and Peace Prosperity and Humility and Harmony. Keep It Up All The Great Heroes of Singapore. A Leader with A Reason is A Leader With A Vision.
Mr LKY speech was and will be the best ever!!!!
omg bruh the 3 pathways thing is hilarious lol. U can use 1 different path each day and I like how all the work was just pushed to NEA lol
I wonder where and how LKY picked up his oratory skills? Inspiring and well spoken.
As a Malaysian, I can't help but impressed & admired his leadership & governance style.
He was a student of law in Cambridge before so
sound likes Adolf Hitler to me
@@chairmantrump4796 You must be watching too much Nazi propaganda then. I advise you not to take Hitler's words
@@extremelycreativeusername no he means literally, but LKY sounded like hitler because they both had similar microphones that are old
SG is blessed with great leaders.. MY need some of the blessing too
Meritocratic ways. It is not easy to be their leader. Even LHL is not just because he is the son of LKY, he definitely can deliver. If he only relies on his father's name, he won't get the respect of Singaporeans.
He will get up
Hat off to LKY always..believer of meritocracy,pragmatism,honesty
Well, he meant it on Wednesday when a 'doppelganger' version of him appeared at coffeeshop lol.
The strong leadership of Singapore.
LKY forever ❤️❤️❤️
3:37
Singapore's very first Chief Minister was a Jew, who was voted in by Singaporeans by popular vote- in 1955! Jews are one of the smallest communities in Singapore. Singaporeans recognise competence when they see it.
why u so soft why never ask MY PM is always Malay, u asking stupid question that was back den racial riot issues. Tharman is good and ppl think highly of him once put him as PM, all he need just 1 mistake everyone will have different view on him
@@Ccb88888 yes, what a great point! it's always about competence, not about race. if we are truly a multi cultural society, then we should be seeing past race and aiming for competence, regardless if the competence comes from a minority or majority group
@@GODLOVEME-uj3vb may I elaborate
Why PM of Malaysia is always a Malay?
It has to do with the norms on this planet.
Everywhere on all countries, the top job goes to the person belonging to majority race.
Just like Singapore.
Would this island want a non Chinese as PM?
So stop the lies about meritocracy.
And don't be embarassedt o admit it.
Same like Malaysia.
You can't expect Malays to accept DAP leading the country as the party maintains an anti Malay attitude all this while
@@GODLOVEME-uj3vb actually Chinese can be the PM of Malaysia..
But as the largest racial group is Malays, therefore naturally the PM.of Malaysia will be Malays
Love to our First President of Singapore Yusof Ishak and 8th President of Singapore Halimah Yacob. Hidup Melayu Singapura, Majulah Melayu Singapura. 🇸🇬🇸🇬🇸🇬
NEA is doing a good job by appointing Chye Tham Maintenance Co. I live in Dist. 19 under Aljunied Const. for more than 35 yrs. Chye Tham Team keep the estate clean. They clean the drains, smoke around the estate n I feel comfortable to get sun light around my garden, especially during Covid-19.
Tku v much NEA/Chye Thiam.
I like the fishball stick, most memorable 😂🤣👍
Lee hsien loong:lets say you make a funny podcast. You talk about bah chok mee🤣
6:25 Phua Chu Kang may be jealous of his sister in law for scoring better English than him.
Thank you ESM Goh for this.
LKY have the best speech but LXL fish ball stick speech is so funny!!
One Hakka man complimenting another fellow Hakka man 🤟
6:58 22 years has passed. I wonder that Chios Jie jie now look like what liao

8:42 was hilarious LOL
Missing Mr Lee
Singapore never had bad leaders
That is the fundamental element for a country to prosper, dear. We are so blessed and many kept complaining asking for more. So sad
@Amila Perera
LOL.. You have been watching and reading too much STATE OWNED Media’s propaganda.
David Tay
Let me correct your statement, “that is the fundamental element for a country under an AUTHORITARIAN system to ensure that those in power and their cronies are millionaires while a large portion of the population are earning SLAVE WAGES relative to their cost of living”..
@@Callsign-Blade_RunnerSG really? Then please migrate to Taiwan or USA then see what the democratic countries do to destroy the country.
@@davidtay787 agree
1999 ESM Goh speak about Phua Chu Kang.
i just realised something. lky spoke like bruce lee would. hahhaha
Haha, this is how ppl speak in those days, if you put water in a cup, it become a cup
They both speak confidently
10:13 FROM NOW NEA BAO GAO LIAO🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
His english has become "Bad to worse".
2:44 😭
Change your mind on 18 May lol.
6:57 nice snipe by cameraman lmao
2:43
It made me laugh non stop XD
I really enjoy LKY speech.
I have no issue Tharman be the PM.
You need a good leader to transform a country from nowhere. Singapore had good leaders starting with LJY.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
It has to be “mee siam mai hum”
"No joke, no fun.." . No water, no sun. Smile, even tho it's breaking...
Me: I will hire Midori to be my NDR advisor.
God father...miss you rest in piece
3:06 I can see the singlet. This is what you gotta wear
Singapore is safe from Malaysia'a today political mess, race & religion rhetorics, thanks to Lee Kuan Yew accepting Tunku Abdul Rahman's suggestion to remove island state from Federation of Malaysia in 1965.
Nothing like LKY and his 1G/2G leaders.
คือเราอยู่นานจนไม่มั่นใจก็หาความจริงยังไม่เจอลองดู
So when is MothershipSG coming out with “National Day Rally Speeches: The most IRONIC moments from Singapore’s PMs”?
2:25 is very interesting
Same level with Malaysian Tunku Abdul Rahman
Way better than TAR... look at msia now. 😂😂😂
