  <note type="statement of responsibility">Lee Kuan Yew</note>
  <note>"The title of this book, From Third World to First, expresses and aspiration of all developing countries, but so far, alas, an achievement of very few. Singapore is one of those few. This account of its first years of independence written by its founding father, Lee Kuan Yew, will therefore be of great interest to people of other developing countries and to all those who are interested in their fate."
Kofi A. Annan, former secretary-general of the United Nations</note>
