Dr Wee Kim Wee, a People's President, dies at age 89 at 0510am. He will always be remembered for his humble, care, kind and gentle ways that melts the hearts of Singaporeans, he will live as a People's President.

His natural warmth touched the lives of many who had the pleasure to know him in his life but for me his looks tells all. (such a fatherly character). Hope that we have more of his people to come for the Nations.

He rose from a poor kampung boy to journalist to Ambassador and finally to Head of State. He did not feel the need to impress others with a big car just because he was a former President. He lived simply and by his principles and convictions.

Goodbye Papa Kim Wee (sob....sob) To Sir with Love!.
