Read the news few days ago and saw the news regarding the passing of Singapore's Legend, our founding forefather, Dr Goh Keng Swee.
Dr Goh has played an integral part in the development of Singapore. In 1959, upon taking up the post of Minister of Finance, he once famously described the state of Singapore’s economy as “wretched”. Thanks to his efforts, however, the economy did not stay that way for long.Twelve years later, in 1979, Dr. Goh made significant contributions to Singapore’s education system, introducing key policies like religious education and streaming in primary schools. He also set up the existing JTC which created jobs for countless Singaporeans. His contribution to our country is significant and appreciable.
Thank you, Dr. Goh. Rest in peace.
Meanwhile, in the other part of the world, another boy has yet became a massive internet sensation after performing at his school's 6th grade festival. 6th grade I think is equivalent of Singapore's Pri 6. Young tender age of 12, his talents are incredible. Check out the video.
Feeling weak today. No strength to do anything.
