LKY: "I am often accused of interfering in the private lives of
citizens. Yet, if I did not, had I not done that, we wouldnt be
here today. And I say without the slightest remorse, that we
wouldnt be here, we would not have made economic progress, if we
had not intervened on very personal matters who your neighbor is,
how you live, the noise you make, how you spit, or what language
you use. We decide what is right, never mind what the people think.
Thats another problem."
CSJ : paraphrase - If you are going to interfere with the lives of
citizens to that degree, how can you then turn around and say that
the poverty situation in Singapore today is not the business of the
government?
