In 2011, Gale Asia published, to wide critical acclaim, the first ten volumes of The Papers of Lee Kuan Yew: Speeches, Interviews and Dialogues, a compilation of four decades (1950-1990) of speeches, interviews and press conference presentations delivered by the founding father of modern Singapore during her formative years to her rise to prominence as an Asian Tiger. Now we are proud to present its continuation, The Papers of Lee Kuan Yew: Speeches, Interviews and Dialogues (1990-2011). These new volumes cover Lee Kuan Yew's tenures as senior minister and minister mentor, starting with Lee's interview with Nippon Hoso Kyokai (NHK) on 18 December 1990 and ending with his speech at NTUC's 50th anniversary dinner on 13 May 2011, chronicling Lee's political statements and thoughts as the nation went through significant changes and crises, such as the Asian financial crisis of 1997, the SARS outbreak of 2003, and the intense fight against terrorism. Lee stepped down as minister mentor on 21 May 2011.
