Channelnewsasia.com - Olympics 2012

Kamil Haque at the 2004 Athens Games. Haque is the son of one of Singapore's 50 Greatest Athletes, Anwarul Haque.

The crux of the Olympian account occurred in the Archive's Section of the Stadium complex... I got my father to pose next to a picture of Tokyo Games poster. For me, this was truly a touching moment. Seeing my father, who has always been a pretty straight laced man, clearly experiencing an emotional moment was rare as it was heartfelt.

We have indeed lost a great man in singapore. However, I am certain that his legacy will live on in the hearts and minds of generations of Singaporeans.

I've always long felt that society
villifies the passionate. That we
should conform to passive ways
of making our mark. I'm glad that
your achievements serve as a
reminder to me and all
Singaporeans that passion is
what drives greatness. And there
is no greater motivation. I've
respected you since I was a child
and today, it is nothing short of
reverence. Thank you Mr Raja for
putting us on the world map. And
for being in a league of your
own. You are indeed a rare gem,
filled with quiet grace, elegance
and class. Goodbye kind sir.

Without this truly Singaporean Father, there is no Singapore as we see today. Let us all now live this legend and be a Singaporean regardless of race, language or religion....Perfect harmony can only be achieved by each of us putting our hearts to this and bringing up our children in the very same way too...
