Lee Qwan Yu, what a great prime minister he was, I'm sure he was in power longer than any other.
If it weren't for him, the British would not have lasted in Singapore like we did.
Will have to check up and see when he stopped being PM.
I tell you what though, he knocks spots of any we had and have in this Country.

Ah yes Bob, but you can't get a special, and playing 'o' and 'x' with them kids, who always won.

I saw him a couple or so times Mal, he used to drive an ordinary car, and used to shop around the harmes (spell) market, a peoples man.
I think that's why he lasted so long, the people loved him.
