Singapore’s first prime minister Lee Kuan Yew, one of the towering figures of post-colonial Asian politics, died Monday in hospital, the government said.

Lee’s son, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said in a statement that he is “deeply grieved to announce the passing of Mr Lee Kuan Yew, the founding Prime Minister of Singapore”.

“Mr Lee passed away peacefully at the Singapore General Hospital today at 3.18 am,” the statement said. He was 91.

Is Buhari's 1984 regime a replica of Lee Kwan Yew's. Lee kwan Yew's tremendous role in Singapore economic development is beyond doubt but it also came at a significant cost for human rights.
His determination to lead his country from a third world contries to the leader of first world nation, also came with restricted freedom of expression, strongly enforced discipline and self censorship.
