You know "The Singapore Story" by Lee Kuan Yew
NOW Read "Great Singapore Stories"

The first in the Great Singapore Stories series comprises 10 books in an attractive collection on the "FOUNDING FATHERS" who were at the start of the Great Adventure of Independent Singapore.
What do we know of the Singapore story today?
We dismiss the past as dry history, a list of dates or milestones of events.
How many people know:
• the huge effort to relocate our people from farms to flats?
• the secretive efforts to build Singapore’s defence force?
• Singapore’s industrialisation drive – once called "Goh’s folly"?

KEEPING THE SINGAPORE STORY ALIVE
Each book in FOUNDING FATHERS has:
• the story of one Singapore founder and his contribution in the endeavour
• growing-up days
• surprising things we never knew about the man
• what others say about him
• snapshots linking the past to present-day context
• rarely seen pictures from family archives

Fifteen reporters from THE NEW PAPER worked for more than a year on this, interviewing people, distilling chunks of old news archives and trawling through information.
A quick handy guide to 10 Singaporeans and their journey in building Singapore.

Bite-sized, accurate and surprising information, some never-before-revealed snippets that show the man behind the scenes.
