QUICK OVERVIEW

The story of that transformation is told here by Singapore's

charismatic, controversial founding father, Lee Kuan Yew. Rising
from a legacy of divisive colonialism, the devastation of the
Second World War, and general poverty and disorder following
the withdrawal of foreign forces, Singapore now is hailed as a
city of the future. This miraculous history is dramatically
recounted by the man who not only lived through it all but who
fearlessly forged ahead and brought about most of these
changes.

Details !

Few gave tiny Singapore much chance of survival when it was

granted independence in 1965. How is it, then, that today the
former British colonial trading post is a thriving Asian
metropolis with not only the world's number one airline, best
airport, and busiest port of trade, but also the world's fourth-
highest per capita real income?

The story of that transformation is told here by Singapore's

charismatic, controversial founding father, Lee Kuan Yew. Rising
from a legacy of divisive colonialism, the devastation of the
Second World War, and general poverty and disorder following
the withdrawal of foreign forces, Singapore now is hailed as a
city of the future. This miraculous history is dramatically
recounted by the man who not only lived through it all but who
fearlessly forged ahead and brought about most of these
changes.

Delving deep into his own meticulous notes, as well as

previously unpublished government papers and oYcial records,
Lee details the extraordinary efforts it took for an island city-
state in Southeast Asia to survive at that time.
