Was it not in the grapevine that he was the one who delayed the rescue unncecessarily? Anyway he's not among the real heroes:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singapore_Cable_Car_disaster

The Naval Diving Unit of the Republic of Singapore Navy was assigned to conduct the underwater search for the passengers in the two cabins which had plunged into the sea. It took the unit three hours before they recovered four bodies from the cabins.
On land, the Army established an operations HQ and medical facilities at the wharf-side.
In the air, the 120 Squadron of Republic of Singapore Air Force was tasked to rescue the people who were still trapped in the four cabins, as the cabins could not be moved along the remaining cables. Though an extremely risky measure, it was considered the fastest and safest way as the cabins might plunge into the sea at any moment.
The first Bell 212 rescue helicopter from the squadron (call sign Rescue One Zero) was piloted by Lieutenant Kao Yit Chee, fitted with floodlights, approached the first stranded cabin and despite the strong winds and danger, the winchman – Lance Corporal Phua Kim Hai was winched down. He was blown off on the first attempt but on the second attempt, he reached the door of the cabin, unlocked it and went inside. He came out with the first passenger strapped to his body by a harness. The winch pulled both of them to safety.
The riskiest rescues were undertaken by a Royal Australian Navy Lieutenant (now Commodore) Geoff Ledger, who was on loan to RSAF to help train helicopter pilots. Despite the windy condition encountered above the harbour and the strong downwash of the rescue helicopter's main rotors, he managed to pilot the second Bell 212 rescue helicopter (call sign Rescue One One) close above the cars to allow winchman Lance Corporal Selvanathan to enter two cabins hanging only by their towline. <SUP id=cite_ref-0 class=reference>[1]</SUP><SUP id=cite_ref-1 class=reference>[2]</SUP> Overall, the entire rescue mission took three and a half hours of risky hovering in pitch black darkness and high wind conditions to accomplish.

The whole mission would have failed without his tactical leadership

Outstanding valour and bravery?
What did he do, jump into the sea to rescue people who were drowning?

No, he used his "eye power" and looked at the sky to prevent earthquake or tsunami from occuring during the rescue. He deserves a medal!! Give that man a tiger!

He made us look at the color pink in a different light.

Must give Makapaa a credit for such good Question. Until now no one still can answer.
If situation continue like current even LHL up lorry still cannot fine the answer.
Maybe the answer will be one day LHL cause the PAP to collapse.

I hope you are being sarcastic. If that is what you really think, you should ask someone older.

Was it not in the grapevine that he was the one who delayed the rescue unnecessarily? Anyway he's not among the real heroes

Makapaaa is absolutely correct. Did you know that LHL is the youngest ever to be made a BG? Rumor has it that it was an orchestrated attempt to put LHL (a signal officer) in charge so he can be given the credit and promotion after. That it was precisely because of the farce to put him in charge that whole operations was delayed.

Lets not shift focus to a one time event cable car thingy.

He with the help of his father in 1999 and chok tong in 2003 (conveniently the final year as PM) paved the way to liberate the gays into the civil servant jobs.

Can there be a greater gift to the gay community in sg than economic power?

That will always be his legacy.

Lee Hsien Loong lowered income tax, corporate tax and abolished estate duty.

How about that?
