China Lee Kuan Yew
In this Nov. 12, 1978 photo released by China's Xinhua news agency, Lee Kuan Yew, left, welcomes then-Chinese Vice Premier Deng Xiaoping in Singapore. Chinese leaders admired modern Singapore’s founder Lee for his toughness, economic pragmatism and insistence on respect for authority. In many ways, Lee’s model of “Asian values,” combining authoritarianism and economic planning, became China’s own blueprint for modernity. Most significantly, late Chinese leader Deng looked to Singapore, with its ethnic Chinese majority, as he embarked on his country’s economic reforms in the late 1970s. Those changes would spur three decades of rapid growth and lift China from the grinding poverty and political dysfunction that were legacies of Mao Zedong’s centrally planned economy. Lee, who died Monday, March 23, 2105 at age 91, and Deng established a close relationship during their several meetings, sharing a starkly practical approach, hard-headed manner and similarly ruthless bent when their wills were defied.
