Condolences to Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew

I would like to express my deepest condolences to Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew for the passing of his beloved wife and partner, Madam Kwa Geok Choo on the 2nd of October 2010. Mrs. Lee has been a great lady in her own right and an inspiration to women across continents. As a strong and willful lady, Mrs. Lee had pursued her beliefs passionately in promoting equality and meritocracy for all regardless of gender and race. Her success can be clearly seen in the prosperous state of Singapore, where its diverse population is living in peace and harmony. As a devoted mother and a caring wife, Mrs. Lee has been a ‘pillar of strength’ to her family, emotionally and intellectually. More so, she had kept to her traditional upbringing of a Straits-Chinese family. Mrs. Lee will be forever remembered as the unseen ‘‘Mother of Singapore’. May she rest in peace
