On September 16, two destinies were born, though they could not have been different from one another – these were the first Malaysia Day, referencing the day when Malaysia came into existence as a federation, and the 40th birthday of Mr Lee Kuan Yew, Singapore’s founding Prime Minister – hence the title of this book: One Date, Two Destinies.

One Date Two Destinies is an engaging presentation of the most significant moments of Mr Lee Kuan Yew’s life, from his early beginnings leading up to his legendary career in representing Singapore on the international stage and eventually crafting its legacy.

In this engaging biography about Lee Kuan Yew that draws together Mr Lee’s memoirs, including The Singapore Story and From Third World to First, as well as sources that range from the National Archives to Straits Times pieces as well as interviews and speeches of Mr. Lee as well as his contemporaries, you will experience the early days of Mr Lee Kuan Yew and the formation of Malaysia, and discover the travails and struggles leading up to the independence of both nations as well as Mr Lee’s legacy from childhood to his time in Malaysia leading up to his transition of power and eventually the conclusion of his story.
