in memory.


look at the man inspecting the contingent.
hmm, the former DPM Goh Keng Swee.
well, my dad says that everyone who is military affiliated should know him.
more than that, i think. all Singaporeans should know him.

he established the SAF, and also set the foundation of the education ministry.
well, as a student and a cadet, i must really appreciate the legacy he left behind.
all the contributions done to the country and the people;
well, tell me which minister today can do as much as he does.
when i learn about how he produce cheap weapon parts in Singapore to cut cost for the military, and also some of his other contributions;
i was really like, oh my god.

he established the foundation of our defence, education ministries;
and also contributions towards the arts area, our country's orchestra.

history will only leave a good place and reputation for such people.
one who was given power by the people,
and then return the power to the people.
that, is what i call a leader.

salute to one of our founding fathers of the nation.
without him, we wouldn't be where we are today.
