‘’Goh Chok Tong is a friend whom I cherish. But, more important than that, he has been instrumental in building a Singapore that is confident of its future at home, and respected widely overseas. Chok Tong views the world not only through the prism of what events mean for Singapore, but also what they presage for the wider world. In short, he is a true statesman. " - Sir John Major, former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, 'Tall Order - The GOH CHOK TONG story'
GCT speech in here no longer interesting and clear cut,this shows that he sustain tremendous pressure from the public and that he knows "subconsciously" that what he did is basically wrong,meaning trying to hammer away opposition parties members and critics.....Sometimes,"something" in our life we don't even need or bother to try....He didn't realise that if LKY cant silence critics,what make him think that he and LHL can successfully silence people?.....He can minimize critics by implement "correct policy",but he cant totally eradicate them......Afterall,he is living in a real world,not Disneyland!!!
Thank you, Mr Lee...
