First and foremost, the points he has raised are no doubt, valid. Critics are indeed being sued without a reasonable explanation from the government. Many Singaporeans are indeed victims of the meritocratic society formed, toiling daily at work just to cope with the rising costs of living. Lee Kuan Yew is indeed overglorified in the media.

But isn't it presumptuous of one to assume that there was an ideal solution to improve Singapore's circumstances then? LKY and his team did the best he could and built this Singapore, out of limited natural resources and experiences. It may not be perfect, but is our current living conditions so destitute to lambaste him as such?

Also, anyone who has made a positive impact in others' lives should be honoured. Therefore, no matter what, it is morally incorrect of him to denounce Mr LKY immediately after his passing, and gloat at his death.

Finally, if not for the rude remarks and aggresive tone, I would have admired him for having such a wide vocabulary and high level of oratorical skills. I really hope that he can become a more mature and level headed individual. He shows tremendous potential as a influential speaker, given the correct social values.

Nevertheless, this video was insightful in the sense that it provided an alternate perspective from the commonplace thanksgiving messages on the media these several days. However, the approach and tone used to convey the message was not appropriate and could have been much better. Overall, I disapprove of this act.
