There will never be another man like Lee Kuan Yew. It is such a shame that there exist a small group of people in Singapore bent on making light of Mr Lee's hard work and achievements for Singapore and some even take the credit away from him.
Here's what General Prayut of Thailand had to say.

“If the former prime minister of Singapore had lived in (and run) Thailand, Thais would have stopped fighting a long time ago. Thais are like balloons that have long been let go, but those in Singapore have been gradually loosened until everything is in order with progress and modernity in a period of just 50 years."

General Prayut told reporters as he compared the great success of the city state to the recurring conflicts among Thais over the past two centuries.
“Singapore has taken 50 years ... to become one nation that has one of the world’s leading economies,” despite a racial mix of Chinese, Malays and Indians, Gen Prayut told reporters when asked to comment on his impression of the celebrations he attended.
