TRANSCRIPT

People start to gather at Singapore General Hospital (SGH) after hearing of Mr Lee Kuan Yew's death. Mourner's flowers of condolence mingle with the 'get well' cards and balloons.

Mr Lee Kuan Yew’s omnipresent image keeps a watchful eye over Singapore's future generations at SGH where he was cared for until his death.

The grief of the older generations was palpable.

Still turning a profit in the Central Business District shortly after his death.

Messages of strength in the ever extending lines of people.

The organisation of the massive numbers paying their respects soon turned in to a military operation.

Signing the book of condolences at Tanjong Pagar GRC (Group Representation Constituency). Mr Lee Kuan Yew led this constituency throughout his political career until his death in March 2015.

Media interest grew as the week progressed.

Mourners file past The Fullerton Hotel with it’s flag at half mast.

Long lines of mourners shield themselves against baking heat of the day.

…..and by night. Some waiting for up to twelve hours to pay their last respects.

Mourners pay their last respects at Mr Lee Kuan Yews's home GRC, Tanjong Pagar.
