In 1960, a
CIA officer was caught trying to buy information from a Singaporean
intelligence officer.
Then the CIA
made things worse by trying to bribe Lee with 3.3 million dollars to sweep the
whole thing under the carpet. Remember, this was in 1960. That was a lot of
money back then.
Lee refused
and instead asked for 33.3 million dollars of official economic aid to
Singapore. This was when the total official American economic aid to Malaysia
(which Singapore was a part of at that time) was merely 1.5 million. And Lee
also got a letter of apology from US Secretary of State, Dean Rusk.
So, in 1965,
Lee revealed this episode in an interview with foreign media, which prompted
denial from the US government. This angered Lee so much that he invited foreign
correspondents to a meeting where he showed the apology letter from Rusk. The
US government had to retract their denial.
In that
meeting with foreign correspondents Lee also threatened to further disclose
details of the case, “which may sound like James Bond and Goldfinger, only not
as good but putrid and grotesque enough”.
Furthermore,
Lee also made the following statement:
“The
Americans should know the character of the men they are dealing with in
Singapore and not get themselves further dragged into calumny…..They are not
dealing with Ngo Dinh Diem or Syngman Rhee. You do not buy and sell this
Government.”
Now, that's
standing up to a bigger power.
