Ladies and gentlemen,
the weather is cold and I feel so good and smooth!

In Lee Hsien Loong eulogy to Mandela, he mentioned that Mandela was jailed for 27yrs. However Lee Hsien Loong forgot to mention that his father Lee Kuan Yew jailed Chia Thye Poh for 32 yrs.

Shame on you Lee Hsien Loong.

Singapore Prime Minister hails Mandela as an inspiration to millions
Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong paid tribute to the late Nelson Mandela on Friday morning, hailing the anti-apartheid icon as an inspiration to millions.

"Rest in peace #Mandela. You inspired millions with your humanity, courage, and lifelong fight for freedom," wrote Mr Lee on Facebook and Twitter.

Mr Mandela, a former South African president, died peacefully at his Johannesburg home on early Friday morning, Singapore time, after a prolonged lung infection. He was 95.

He was jailed for 27 years for his opposition to white minority rule in South Africa, a struggle which made him one of 20th century's most famous and beloved global icons.
