Lee Hsien is a smart dude. But the success of Singapore is due to non-religous legal framework. Compare this with Malaysia which formed at the same time but it is too poor due to religious policy. I wonder if India would have been more non-relgious it too would have become hugely successful. Although relatively its better compared to Pakistan which is too religious than India. Looks like Islamic nations work great under a monarch rather than democracy.
