ai generated text
Singapore is set to inaugurate Lawrence Wong as its new prime minister, succeeding Lee Hsien Loong who stepped down after two decades in office. Wong, a 51-year-old U.S.-trained economist, will become the nation's fourth leader since its independence six decades ago. The succession marks the end of a family dynasty led by Lee Kuan Yew, Singapore's charismatic first leader and father of Lee Hsien Loong.
Every ounce of my energy shall be devoted to the service of our country and our people.
I will certainly strive to be a leader who is strong, kind, and decisive. And I will do my best to build a Singapore where everyone can realize their full potential.
