11:15 a.m.

Lee Kuan Yew, was a hero growing up. I never knew who he was. All I knew, was when I was small. I would go on holiday there to Singapore with my family, to go shopping and have fun.

I remember my dad got me a Nintendo Gameboy, as I was a big fan of Pokémon. I think it was Gameboy SP. I went to a library or bookshop. I was an adorable child. I was "pretending" to read books. With a Gameboy hidden inside the book. So I made two new friends, who were seated next to me.

So my ████████ dad Palith, he was wondering what the ████ is going on. Why are two kids seated next to Lehan, reading a book?

It wasn't ███████ Magazine like you'd expect, which you don't find there, but will here when I'm done with this place, when I'm done making this place as white as I am on the inside, exceptionalist Americanized and Lehanized, with Lehanomics of systematic, pyramid globalist elitist capitalism.

Then he came up, checked, saw we were playing Mario, looked disappointed and left, not realizing that Pokémon games had more text, fun games to teach important skills and were more valuable learning tools...

When I was in Vijitha Yapa Bookshop opposite Majestic City in Colombo, Sri Lanka, as a child. I was like Aladdin, I would go into the Cave of Wonders.

For all of those books possess the secrets of the universe, the magic of this world and worldly treasures. I would go around. Knowing I had only enough pocket money from my mum, to buy one magic lamp, to buy one Genie.

I mean, I was a fan of Goosebumps, I'd read so many. I read Harry Potter. But this time, i was going around. I then, by chance, I saw my favorite country: Singapore. A picture of Singapore. *Ahh my favorite place*. With a photo of some balding Chinese man, called "Lee Kuan Yew".

"The Singapore Story" it read. "From Third World to First". *A prime minister for so long. For so many decades. I can't believe this man, is so stupid to be revealing how he led a country. That makes no sense.

Shouldn't he hide everything? What if people copied him or tried to stop him or attack him?*

I read that book. Simple English as you can see here now. No big words--just like Trump. I would use a pencil to write meanings of the few big words he used. But I felt the message, what he inspired, the flame it ignited, was more of a beacon.

It taught me to cut through the fog of propaganda. It taught me, no. He* taught me to be honest, not to lead, not to build a country or to win over people. That country is only successful because of honest public officials.

Lee Kuan Yew, made sure Singapore succeeded due to his personal integrity, with his candid, open and honest communication, his transparency, that's all.

He was more honest than Obama, than perhaps Trump (why he beat Hillary), than the rest. He did something great with no resources, with enemies cursing him and working to destroy the people of Singapore.

He wasn't a minister mentor.

He was an honesty mentor.
