<![CDATA[Tribute to Mrs Lee Kwan Yew]]>http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/singaporelocalnews/view/1084739/1/.html



She was an epitome of THE woman.

She was a capable career woman, a dedicated mother and ....

A model wife - a true blue classic example of \"behind every successful man is a VERY supportive wife.\"

My deepest condolences to MM Lee and his family.

Behind every successful man, there must be two GREAT women: The Mother and the Wife. Mrs Lee was a wife and mother to two of our Prime Ministers. She has done much for our nation. Thank you, Mrs Lee. You're truly a woman we should all emulate.


\"A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies.\"

\"Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value.\"

\"She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life.\"

\"She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands.\"

\"She is like the merchant ships, bringing her food from afar.\"

\"She gets up while it is still dark; she provides food for her family and portions for her servant girls.\"

\"She considers a field and buys it; out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.\"

\"She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks.\"

\"She sees that her trading is profitable, and her lamp does not go out at night.\"

\"In her hand she holds the distaff and grasps the spindle with her fingers.\"

\"She opens her arms to the poor and extends her hands to the needy.\"

\"When it snows, she has no fear for her household; for all of them are clothed in scarlet.\"

\"She makes coverings for her bed; she is clothed in fine linen and purple.\"

\"Her husband is respected at the city gate, where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.\"

\"She makes linen garments and sells them, and supplies the merchants with sashes.\"

\"Strength and honor are her clothing; she shall rejoice in time to come\"

\"She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue.\"

\"She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness.\"

\"Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her.\"

\"Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all.\"

\"Charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.\"

\"Give her the reward she has earned, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.\"

- Proverbs 31.

Hope MM Lee can find the strength to get over the grief over the loss of his life partner.


Rest in peace, Mrs Lee. It’s so amazing that such a talented and bright woman is willing to put her husband and family before herself.

After all, these two very important persons have shaped Singapore into what it is today. Without them, we and our next generations wouldn't be enjoying the peace, security and prosperity of the nation now. I have deep respects for them.


Rest in peace, Mrs Lee. And I pray MM Lee will recover soon from his chest infection, and find the strength to go on without his soulmate and beloved wife of 63 yrs. 😞

A truly intelligent woman who fully supported her husband in his course and thus changed the history of an entire nation. Not for her to carve her own career and be in the lime-light. In her own words, she "walked 2 steps behind" her husband in public. Her devotion is truly touching and worthy for all to emulate.

May you rest in peace Mrs Lee!

Taking an excerpt from the Bible, she had run the good race, she had fought the good fight.

You have been a guiding pillar for all of us in Singapore, and it would be a tough job finding ssomeone with as much courage, determination, and bravery as you.

I pray that MM Lee and his family will be able to handle the loss, and my deepest condolences to them. :sad: 😒

:hugs: to the Lee family.

I feel very sad for him, bcos she is the one behind his success. A truly intelligent woman.


It’s unfortunate that MM is in the hospital then. I hope he will be able to get over his grief, although it is going to be very difficult bcos she has always been there for him. From his daughter’s articles, we got to know more about MM and his dedication to his wife. He’s truly a wonderful husband.

What timing when MM is still in hospital and PM in Belgium. 😞
I think she really missed his \"bedtime stories\" while he was away in hospital.
