There's been a lot of buzz today about the first anniversary of Lee Kuan Yew's death. And rightly so — he's Singapore's founding Prime Minister, after all, and he contributed heaps to building up our nation.
But then there are people who take the act of paying tribute to the extreme — ones who claim to see LKY's cloud-shaped face in the sky shining down upon us, or teachers who instruct kindergarten kids to bow before a remembrance site.
So how much is too much? Where is the line between respectfully commemorating the man's death and expressing reverence to the point of worship? And when will the flood of LKY stories (which already started earlier this month) come to an end?
