History is written by winners. This is the history of my country. Well, PAP is Singapore, isn't it? As with all historical accounts, one struggles between what is "real" and what is "propanganda", and whether a comprehensive picture has been presented. I don't think this is light years away from what really happened but I am doubtful when the authors claim this to be a "factual" and "objective" account. History is never factual in the true sense of the word because history is a collection of human interpretations of events. And human interpretation cannot be completely objective.Some views:
