Gift of Lee Hsien Loong
This Raleigh Sports bicycle was owned by Singapore’s current Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong. It was given to him as a birthday present by his grandmother Mdm Chua Jim Neo in 8 February 1963, when he turned 11. His father, Singapore's first Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew, had taught him how to ride a bicycle. The elder Lee's first bicycle was also a Raleigh.
