Private memorial service for Lee Kuan Yew in New York
Singapore
ON Lee Kuan Yew's first official visit to the United States in 1967, president Lyndon Johnson presented his wife, who was accompanying him, a jewellery box. Mrs Lee kept the box and stored in it, among other things, the name card of a bicycle shop.
This was no ordinary bicycle shop; it was the cutout address for Mr Lee's contact with the Plen.
