Your father is also a very traditional Chinese, and has the values of advocating education! Because your mother once surpassed your father by three scores, your father who was always first in the exam, later chased her to have her as his wife! Ha, I think this story can be made into a movie. And you have a good education since childhood, know eight languages, excellent GPA, special in math,study abroad in Cambridge and Harvard。You became prime minister not by your father's shadow, but by your talent and popularity. Jackie doesn't have enough talking with you, yet you're honest and realistic. You tell Jackie that you lack musical literacy, unlike many European and American leaders, who can play instruments。 When get together with Jackie, they can almost always play a piece with her. When you were a child, you learned piano and gave up as you didn't like it, and you later on focused more on science and engineering. You also told Jackie that Singapore has no history and almost everything is modern. So frank!This kind of value and character, are unlike that of most face-saving Chinese, especially leaders from mainland Chinese government. This is the realistic side of people in natural science, and perhaps this is one of the reasons why you, as a leader, are respected and trusted by both eastern and western countries.
