Lee Kuan Yew was the first Prime minister of Singapore who built it into a prosperous and modern city-state that it is today. Lee and Nehru came to power about the same time but Lew's policies and vision transformed Singapore from a small fishing town to one which has one of the highest standards of living in the world.
