    SOON after the separation from Malaysia in 1965, Singapore's first Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew set a goal for the newly independent state: it will become a metropolis in 10 years.

    Singapore's third Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong on Monday declared that the goal has been more than met - and he set a new goal for the Republic: "Ten years from now, we will be a smart nation!"
