Title: Tanjong Pagar ‘where it all began’ for Lee Kuan Yew and Singapore: Indranee Raja
Post by: default on Mar 29, 2025, 08:25 PM
SINGAPORE – Tanjong Pagar is "where it all began" for Singapore's founding prime minister Lee Kuan Yew, said Minister in the Prime Minister's Office Indranee Rajah on March 29.

"Without Tanjong Pagar, there would be no Singapore as we know it," she said.

"If Tanjong Pagar had not given Mr Lee that original mandate, he would not have become the MP for the area, and he would not have become our founding prime minister."


Mr Lee died on March 23, 2015, at the age of 91. He was Tanjong Pagar's first MP, after being elected in 1955 when it was a single-member constituency. He remained MP for the constituency for almost 60 years. Tanjong Pagar is now a five-member group representation constituency.

And people who live in Tanjong Pagar remember this, said Ms Indranee, who is also Second Minister for Finance and National Development and an MP for Tanjong Pagar GRC. She was speaking to reporters at the launch of Ramadan Festive Care 2025 at Tiong Bahru Community Centre.

"The journey started here, and I think Mr Lee and all successive MPs in this area have done their very best to build on that legacy and continue to take Singapore forward," she added.
