Golden Age of Singapore-Xinhui

I feel that lee kuan yew has provided for we singaporeans a home, a safe harbour. Singapore, who parted with Malaysia in the merger, could obviously not stand alone, fight by itself, let it survive. Singapore, was a place with no resources, no hope, but with and increasing population. Lee kuan yew knew that Singapore had only manpower, so he made use of that to help Singapore. He belived singapore best resource was human, thus when the british troops left singapore, he set a law for men at the age of 18 to serve national service, better known as ns. At that time, there was no more british singapore could rely on, and lee kuan yew saw the need to have people to defend the country, thus he made use of our manpower to protect our country. Singapore without him would mot be what it is today.
