This student edition of The Singapore Story isa shortened version of the original edition of The Singapore Story, the first volume of Lee Kuan Yew’s memoirs published in 2008. It covers all the significant moments in the life of Singapore’s first prime minister, in his own words, and dispenses with passages that do not directly concern Singapore. The book:• Traces Lee’s boyhood, his Japanese Occupation experience, his four years in England as a student when his political views took shape, and his work preparing for the launch of the People’s Action Party• Describes how Lee and his colleagues worked in a united front with the communists, won the elections, became the government and finally broke with the communists and fought against them• Details the troubles Lee and his colleagues faced from communal intimidation and domination by the Malay extremists in Malaysia until Singapore was asked to leave Malaysia and become independent on 9 August 1965 Less
