    Remembering Manmohan Singh

    Dr Manmohan Singh, who passed on in New Delhi, India yesterday at the age of 92, was the architect of India’s economic reforms. A master of his craft, a rare genius, Dr Singh’s name will stand high in the records of fine achievement in politics, governance and economic development in the world’s biggest democracy.

    As Prime Minister of India (2004-2014), he led the country to become a major economic power, generating billions for its citizens and for the international community. Under his leadership, India became a global market mover with the Western world tapping into its vast resources of commerce in a wide range of industries to create a profitable relationship with the world’s largest democracy.

    Known at home and throughout the world as the face of the twenty-first century India as well as a major architect of India’s reform, Prime Minister Singh dedicated his entire professional life helping to shape the policies that have catapulted India to world prominence.

    Dr Singh was part of the generation that saw and later influenced the nation’s emergence from colonial rule in 1947 through decades of planned economies, the gradual liberalisation of India’s economy in the 1990s and finally the rise of the Indian global giant, anchored on its people’s unique can-do attitude (jugaad) and the ages-long entrepreneurial spirit, expressed at every level of Indian society.

    🇮🇳 So long, Prime Minister Singh🧎🏽‍♂️
