Thanks for the tribute and a most poignant quote. I found solace that he died close to Labor Day and during our GE campaign, hoping that his spirit will somehow infect the hundreds of thousands of Singaporeans who do not know him or his works. Alas, it was not to be, not yet perhaps. In the meantime, we can only fight back, hanya dengan mulut.
