Abstract
A four part interview series that offers a rare insight into the thoughts, opinions, dreams and aspirations of four supporting players in Singapore's history. "He's known as the incarnate civil servant and the brain that boosted Singapore Airlines from a small, little-known carrier to possibly the most prestigious airline in the world. J. Y. Pillay is no ordinary Singapore civil servant; he's one of the founding fathers of the country's powerful Monetary Authority of Singapore - guardian of the strong Singapore dollar - and he's played a key role in shaping the country's highly profitable shipyards, petrochemicals and banking sectors. In a rare interview, this modern mandarin talks candidly about tough decisions, and why having power for him is "a sacred trust.""--MediaCorp News.
