Mr. S.Rajaratnam was indeed one of the most eloquent, brilliant, forward thinking, " architects of Singapore". He certainly played a crucial role in shaping Singapore. He left behind a legacy that Singapore can be proud of. Thank you for this informative narration.
Or just a plain common-sense man who saw the only way SG could work and stubbornly worked for it. In our sad world common-sense is not common and doing things the correct way requires a visionary.
He was a great foreign minister who help to form Asean during the Vietnam invasion of Cambodia crisis. And the father of our National Pledge. We salute you, Mr Raja. RiP
I am reading the second volume of his biography. I must say that I am fascinated by the man. The perspective the book gives me of our common history is interesting. The research is meticulous and detailed and makes credible the perspectives taken to support the decisions made at the time.
Another Singaporean story. The impossible was achieved. Helped by the very difficulty of the matter. Singaporeans are a people because they have so little in common with those around them. SG is First World nation surrounded by Third World nations. Compared with Malaysia they might as well be Finns. Rajaratnam is responsible for that. Just the people of SG being legally equal makes them different from their neighbors.
NGL, shed a tear when the National Pledge was recited in the video and then the letter was shown. Thank you Mr. S. Rajaratnam!
Same
Thank you for believing that we can live up to the ideals in our pledge Sir.

One of the 10 ' architects' of Singapore : Mr Rajaratnam is very smart, analytical ; he basically sacrificed his whole life for Singapore.

Certainly! That’s what we’re here for
