In fact, he's my favourite.
He portrayed not as a fatherly but rather as a grandfatherly figure. I can still remember he's last NDP as the President ... the drive past ... it was really emotional man ...

Yes.. I think he is one that have touch the hearts of many... especially ordinary men in the street like me. Will remember him as a people's president.
he really was "the man" imo... and yes, a people's person, a people's president. my condolences to his family too..
A sad day for many...
Indeed, he is my favourite President too. Always humble and willing to reach out to the mass, he'll be missed by many.
"To me in the eyes of God and in law, we are all equal. I could have been President of Singapore at one time but if you take away the word President from me I'm just Wee Kim Wee, just like a taxi driver or whoever, a journalist." quoted from CNA.com :cry:
My condolences to Mr. Wee's family.
