August 1965. Footage of an interview of Lee Kuan Yew, the Prime Minister of Singapore, conducted by Australian and British journalists. He revealed an attempt in 1960 by an agent of the American Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to bribe an official of the Singaporean Special Branch to report on the activities of the Singaporean state. He also revealed that the American agent was arrested and threatened with prosecution. But the case did not come to open court. He told the journalists that he sent a message to the American government, which he accused of “lacking finesse”, to give Singapore $100 million dollars for economic development. However, the Americans responded by offering Yew and his political Party $10 Million. He refused.
