【分析解答题】

In his latest book， Lee Kuan Yew fearlessly expresses his ideas， seeking "to be correct， not politically correct." Lee also recounts his impressions of nations， leaders and historic events. In acerbic Lee Kuan Yew style， he describes Margaret Thatcher， Ronald Reagan， China‘s poetry-quoting Jiang Zemin， the late Mao Zedong， the incorruptible Zhu Rongji to the bold reformer Deng Xiaoping （whom he remembers as "a five-footer but a giant among men"）。 

Among the most interesting parts of the book were Lee Kuan Yew‘s references to the Philippines and his sadness that our talented nation could suffer so many socio-political and economic troubles. An anecdote recounts the 1985 official trip to Washington， DC where State Secretary George Shultz asked Lee to convince President Ronald Reagan that his old friend Ferdinand Marcos was then the problem of the Philippines， not the solution. During the uprising the following year 1986， when the U.S. government asked Lee‘s opinions， he said America should not accept a fraudulent election， and put pressure on Marcos to call new elections.
