When LKY step in to transform NU to NTU, it was because the standard at NU decline to such poor levels employers treated NU grads as 3rd tier below poly grads. Govt had no choice but to step in and do a clean up to up the standard ....
Without LKY stepping in it would have declined to don't know what pathetic state.
Having said that the story of the Chinese community rallyung together to build a university with donations is still an inspiring one ...something we won't see again in modern Singapore.
I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
