I happened to remember a question once posed, "How great is Singapore?" I feel the question can now be rephrased as "How great is LKY's Singapore?" And I feel I have the answer now.
Yes, we are not as great as the bigger or older countries. However, we have been given the abilities to hold our own when others come to our shore to either work or compete with us. We are also equipped to have a stand in the international stage when we fly out of Changi Airport. If greatness is measured by how much value the people of Singapore contribute to the community, society and world around us, then we are great beyond our means.
This should be the legacy Mr Lee has left us and we are forever grateful. Thank you and may you rest assured that Singapore will continue to grow strong. You had done more than enough and should you rest in peace now.

Frozen vs Tangled
Managed to catch Frozen on TV on Christmas morning. It's nice but I kinda like Tangled slightly better.

Shutter Island
Finally I managed to settle down to watch this movie that has been sitting in my hard-drive for a long time and it was fucking mind-blasting! It had the element of an old-school detective mystery incorporated with the essence of a modern psychological thriller. I really like it a lot. I had never been a fan of Leonardo DiCaprio but he was excellent in this, showing his maturity in his acting. He sure had come a long way and one could see the effort he had put in.
