    This Lee Kuan Yew retelling of his meeting with striking Singapore Airlines pilots is straight gangsta, like some scene out of Game of Thrones. “Whoever governs Singapore must have that iron in him.”https://youtu.be/ytMXSLeqFMY

        Friends from abroad are always asking me about Lee Kuan Yew. I usually hesitate to answer, because it's complicated. But I always find myself thinking, "still, I should try." Anyway, here are 4 very different quotes from him that I think help to *hint* at what he was like pic.twitter.com/G6Xb6VK3MW

        This looks either appealingly strong or authoritarian across the decades, depending on people's taste of the moment. What's indicative is a wartime person managing the only way he knew how.

        I’m a libertarian who thinks our political class should be pushed into the sea, but if we were to be led rather than represented, LKY was the guy. Singapore is perhaps the only country where an entrenched elite submits to a meritocracy.

        If Lee Kuan Yew were unfortunate enough to have been born in India and been its PM, he'd have been branded "fascist", "intolerant" and other such millennial snowflake labels.
