Congrats on the fine performance,esp on Higher Chinese.
The two most important Chinese on Earth are Qin Shi Huang and Confuscius.
One for unifying the Chinese Empire and the other leaving us with his teachings on chinese customs and culture.
I am not sure of LKY and feel uneasy about the timely removal of Estate Duty which help their family to keep their fortunes of hundreds of millions intact.
For this reason, he cannot join the rank and be one of the greatest Chinese on Earth. So what he got for his PSLE is not relevant.
In Spore parents have become too enamoured about school exams e.g. PSLE. GCE 0, A levels, ... Few bother to ask themselves if it is really an important indicator of success in life
LKY is admired by many Sporeans, especially the 70%. So a comparison would be useful to give perspective to the clueless as to what really is important in life.
I was a poor student & rarely scored any distinctions because I was always out catching spiders. Despite this, I think I'm doing OK because I don't drink or gamble. I owned a condo which is fully paid up for. I have $ in the bank & own a healthy amount of shares. I did all this honestly by being a worker bee in Spore.
