Group 5: Lim Chin Siong

1. Post

A hero is someone of remarkable gallantry and nobility, someone who does not arise with intentions of doing so. They become one solely because of their actions of valor and selflessness in times of difficulty. These people do what they think is right, and for the good of others.

Lim Chin Siong, a heroic figure in the postwar era, was dedicated to the continuation of his cause of the People's Action Party. Despite being branded a Communist (by past and present people), he never acknowledged this statement. He had helped to build and lead the PAP together with Mr. Lee Kuan Yew, allowing the party and himself to prosper. Nevertheless, he was 'wiped out' as a person who held the position in the Left Wing of Barisan Sosialis. Under Operation Coldstore, the entire left wing was decapitated and arrested. The rapid downfall of him was caused by his jail term and the snap elections held, after his political life was destroyed.

What was most shocking was that he died as a hero who is forgotten by Singaporeans today, despite his commitment to Singapore's development.
