From all those research I've made, I really can see the things the founding fathers have done to Singapore.
They left such a big impact to the people around them
If we could take a look at what Singapore is today, I am sure we would tell ourselves that it really has changed, alot.


"In your opinion, who contribute more to Singapore’s progress, explain your answer.”


Well, I am not from Singapore hence, I can only count on the internet to give me information about them.

From my own opinion, I think Mr S Rajaratnam & Dr Goh Keng Swee contributed equally to Singapore's progress
All of the founding fathers and the government worked hand in hand to help Singapore.
They did their part.


Both have different opinions and they did different things but only have one goal, which is to bring a better future for the people in Singapore.
Dr Goh was responsible for projects that sought to improve on Singapore's cultural and leisure such as Jurong Bird Park and The Singapore Zoo.
Look at what it is now, it became a tourist attraction.


Mr SR penned down the National Pledge against the racial riots.
Students will recite the pledge every morning before having lessons.
it wasn't created for fun, if we take a look at the National Pledge, we can see that it's a message for all of us.
it was written to inculcate in all Singaporeans his vision of building one united Singapore regardless of race, language or religion.

If Dr Goh didn't exist, would tourist still come to Singapore to settle down?

If Mr SR didn't exist, would Singapore be peaceful as how it is today?

Each and every person are special in their own ways.

There isn't such thing as 'I would not care about *insertname* because *insertanothername* contributed more.
Each and every of them contributed enough to make Singapore a better place.
Without either one of them, there would be something missing, it will not be complete.
It all began with them.
Without them, there's no Singapore.

Rajaratnam died on 22 February 2006 of heart failure.

As a mark of respect, mediacorp channel 5 and 8 observed the one-minute of silence of procedure that night. The state flag on all government buildings was flown at half-mast from 23 february to 25 february 2006.

In recognition of his contributions as one of Singapore's founding fathers,

Rajaratnam was accorded a state funeral at the Esplanade - Theatres on the Bay

on 25 February 2006. The coffin was carried from Parliament House to the

Esplanade at 1:30pm on a ceremonial gun carriage,

past the historic Civic District. The service was attended by

President S.R. Nathan, Cabinet ministers, members of parliament and invited people from all walks of life.

The Singapore National Pledge was recited by the mourners in honour of Rajaratnam,

who penned down the National Pledge against the backdrop of racial riots in the 1950s and 1960s to inculcate in all Singaporeans his vision of building one united Singapore regardless of race, language or religion.
