Even today, how many Asian leaders can articulate so brilliantly and courageously like Lee Kuan Yew?Lee Kuan Yew continues to live on in my heart even today.
Heck, even the Anglo-saxon nations leaders of recent can't articulate this way.
@@asiacuisine4869 We will bring back many jobs, good jobs.
no one and will be no one, LKY was one and only and will remain ONE! no match, he is identifiable, recognizable, and idealizable.
Lee Kuan Yew is the most brilliant leader in his generation.
In my opinion, even the smartest until today.
The best leader in Asia from 1959 to 2015!
So far none can compare..
He is a Legend! A leader of this century!
The smartest in d world
The Late Lee Kuan Yew was indeed a fearless lion...... Brave, courageous, smart, wise, a rare gem amongst men. A great man, a legend.
A lion man? He looks towards us from heaven.
and ur a pussy
He was indeed.
He knew what he wanted. He knew his Govt could do it and he wouldn’t let anyone bully him out of doing it. ! Besides his brilliant mind , yes he had an iron will.
Could someone explain the story behind this ? He seems so angry
Feel the tenacity, conviction and courage. He wasn't even in his prime yet.
"Whoever goes on with this compromise, goes it alone." Firm words that echo in many ears.
The only politician who really care for building the nation of future for people better life. Who really can speak fluently and cleverly in a amazing english and can communicte well with british or amercan reporter.
rare footage indeed. Much appreciated
LKY inspired me to turn my life around from being a welfare bum to being an editor with a start up and writing a book about the south London music scene.
kw wk He was the greatest magician since Aleister Crowley, after all.
what was the inspiration?
very cocky, very confident, very brush....he sure knew what he wanted even then
very street smart. Imagine there are thousands like him in China now!
This guy is so eloquent with his words damn
He was a lawyer
Thanks to him for what Singapore has achieved! Proud to be Singaporean ! Stay safe and healthy everyone! Love
He lived and breathed responsibility from the start. We were blessed to have the few good men. This is Christmas pudding with ascenic...his statements were so lively and at times even funny.
LKY is literally Bruce Lee in political world
Great speech & response by a Great Leader!
LKY was a visionary leader. He was a man not only for his time but before his time. Can anyone put hand to heart and declare unequivocally that Singapore will be where it is today without his leadership? In one generation LKY brought a colonial outpost without natural resources or hinterland to be equal among other first world countries.
What an amazing man ❤
He was a handsome and brilliant man..
He sounded so much more British than those years later in his life.
I would argue his accent is Transatlantic one which is pretty 'normal' during his days.
Thanks Pal. His grandson "Li ShengWu" top in Oxford PPE cohort speak almost alike. However, LKY shows better body language and he was fearless then. LOL.
There is much to be said about LKY, but being an Indian, it reminds me of the 1931 round table conference. The British just don't change.
ranban282 ....lky is not suitable for Malaysia.. Malays in Malaysia are better off umno or any party pro Malays
Who cares? Singapore has a fifth of Malaysia's population, and the same GDP as that of Malaysia.
No words on this! Reason! without Mr.Lee we are not here
With All Due #Respect, #thankyou For Sharing This Video With Us All. #indeed.
Lky is comparable to Soekarno as his style of speech, truly a lion of asia
His speech still relevant to these days. Look at the Hongkie now.. Not sure if they understand..
Outspoken with fact n brilliant mind.he is legend of the legend
we have to refer this as a nation bulding piece of work and not a political one. i am a civil servant, yet not a pap one. use this rightly.
teach our young to have a backbone. not rely on govt to do everything. as some expect. even john kennedy said' ddo not ask what your country can do for you , rather , what you can do for your country.''
Correctly said...he appeared politically in 1959. Malaysia Merdeka(1957) and the Baling Talk by Tengku & Marshall. The closure of Nantah(1955)
Fantastic man
Let Singaporeans decide their future.
still very charming indeed...☺young then and charmingly dressed indeed too...👍👍👍💞
I LOVE SINGAPORE
Lol. Even by looking at LKY, then at Marshall, the press revealing and recording their words and image, the British people would have concluded - yes we now how it broke down and of course it did and we know because of who.
Just by the sense LKY displayed and explained, that was convincing to any sane person British or Singaporean that one person came in to do things right and another was not and that other was not appropriately adjusted or even competent as LKY. It’s almost cruel, Marshall spoke so feebly with no strength of resonance on par and he even looking at the people there, he was wonky eyed for the camera to capture.
LKY we can actually see him think as he speaks and in between his sentences with real thought composure and clarity
敢於表达自已的看法，有远見的領袖。為新加坡奋斗。
POWER!!! REAL OG
What a MAN❤
Chief Minister and Leader of Opposition of Singapore fighting for Singapore's self-governance in 1956
first time hearing him in a british accent lol
Negara tdk ada apaapanya waktu itu. Army gak ada. Money paspasan. Dia bs arahkan pikiran musuhnya. Dia balik logikanya. Keukeuh d jalan yg ingin dia capai dgn kepercayaan diri yg tinggi Lee ngomong gitu. Gaya disiplin militer besi dia kontrol dan awasi warganya. Sukses ki.❤
PAP nice mr lee bless me
Great speaker he sounded like James Baldwin
Sounded more posh English when he was younger
I wonder what english accent he has from the video.
What's "ministry of Singapore"?
British gov sent him right one?
his british accent sibei strong.
Actually most english educated speaks this way back in singapore. Its called received pronounciation.
his days at cambridge rubbed off on him....
To the many Chinese educated back then, this is an enslaved (奴化）accent.
@@imycunt372 Not more than Chinese men wearing Pigtail on their heads enforced by Manchu
@@amyhess7029 subjugation is a better word. Anyway its a known fact the Manchus became enslaved themselves linguistically by the Hans.
不懂英文也不赖，可以仔细欣赏他的每个面部表情！
great transatlantic accent. wonder where he got em
He was educated in Britain and trained as lawyer before becoming the Prime minister of Singapore
@@HakunaMatataOT7 then he should have a british accent instead of transatlantic one.
@@az-fy3mp its becuz of his chinese upbringing (speaking Chinese at home) and his english language education
Wow this was in 1956
i wasnt born yet. !
wow he was so chubby then. great speech. when was this?
1956. LKY was still opposition then. He was part of the David Marshall delegation to negotiate for self government for Singapore.
zrhooyah2 thanks.

Ah pek face
But
Albert Einstein brain.
lol
Contemptuous confidence.
Just another charismatic, eloquently spoken despot.

i could vividly remember how David Marshall campaigning from 'kampong to kampong' holding a hammer in right hand shouting "Merdeka!" We the children would follow him shouting along with him and got bribed with a sweetlet. So, the hammer became a symbol tool for the Workers' Party today. The Labour Party of David Marshall who took part in the Baling Talk with Tengku Abdul Rahman requesting Chin Peng of the Communist Party of Malaya to give up of his 'arms struggle' for peace. All these political turmoils with the absence of LKY. The mandate for the PAP winning over Lim Yew Hock were from the Chinese-educated in 1959 with the closure of Nantah in 1955.The fascade is still standing at Boon Lay today. The Nantah was formed two years before the
..the formation of Malaysia's Merdeka in 1957 with some political motives by the Chinese educated resulting in what is Singapore today.
His english style is actually like Soekarno
What year was this??
1955
E
Lee Kuan Yew is dead already.he is passed away oh be good.
His spirit is alive and well.
Look at that FACE and see the EVIL in those EYES but hand to him his command of English King or Queen is the ace to CON!!!
Peter Q
Evil in those eyes? That’s an awfully stupid racist comment. He is one of the great wise leaders of the age. What are you?
@@afritimm A slitty Rat eye is a RAT!!!
I may disagree with you. He had a typical singaporean accent. And, he spoke singapore english.
Peter Q: So much resentment, bitterness, nastiness. Sad, sad, sad!
@@FCPCPF you have to live his era to know the EVIL of this man...he sells his country to the enemy and even sleeps with them to save his evil soul during WW2 when men his age went underground to resist the occupation...again he sold his people by enacting LEEgal Abortion to comply with Investments from the US through Kissinger's Depopulation of 3 World countries killing 1,000,000 unborn with a population of only 2 million...if that is NOT evil I do not KNOW what is besides Hitler who was his Hero...Hitler killed in the name of a Master Race...he murdered the Unborn to create a supposed elite society in his eyes and in the process claims that the lower mortals or less educated will Breed a Pool of IDIOTS complying with Kissinger's depopulation of 3rd world inhabitants claiming they are taking too much and feeding too little!!!...yet he was elevated as a statesman similarly with Kissinger TWO of a KIND!!!
