The Favourite Persons
My favorite leaders are Lee Kuan Yew, Mahathir Mohamad, Nelson Mandela, and Abraham Lincoln — each of them has inspired me deeply through their visionary leadership and dedication to their people.
I admire Lee Kuan Yew for transforming Singapore from a struggling port city into a prosperous nation through discipline, honesty, and long-term planning.
Mahathir Mohamad’s leadership in Malaysia teaches us how a strong vision and persistent reforms can reshape a country’s future.
Nelson Mandela is a symbol of forgiveness and courage. His fight against apartheid and his focus on unity deeply moved me.

These great leaders remind me that true leadership means serving others, standing by principles, and never giving up on the hope of a better future.
