Raffles, Lky and Singapore.
- Thread starter psy83
- Start date
Think we existed as a forgotten island in the backyard of the Johor sultanate from dunno which eons...then Sang Nila utama came around from indon...and proclaim this as temaesk...
then Raffles came around, and con the Johor sultanate for the use of this island as a trading port.
History will have it that Raffles is the founder of Singapore - technically having the foresight to recognise its potential as a trading port. Whether or not he could have landed in Batam and made that a trading port instead, I dunno...
Modern Singapore..yah depending on what you define as modern Singapore - i think there is no founder of Modern Singapore...
Who is responsible for our success - singaporeans as a whole.
Whose ideology to bring SIngapore - think its that Dutch economist assigned by UN - Weismeis or something. Think he is the architect of our economy policy. Till today, EDB and the government still relies on this think-tank / advisor panel for advice on future economic policies.
Think economics drive everything that we do.
