The 82-year-old outspoken public intellectual added: “I and my friends are totally puzzled. Me a racist?”
SINGAPORE — Tay Kheng Soon, a well-known architect and an adjunct professor at the National University of Singapore , has departed from the university. He shared on Facebook, “I left NUS because they were told that I am a racist.”
In 2018, the Police questioned Prof Tay regarding a Facebook post he had put up. At that time, Prof Tay had posted a picture of the Genocide Memorial in Armenia, which he visited and wrote that he saw and learnt of the 1.5 million Armenian Christians exterminated by the Ottoman Turks in 1911. Prof Tay, behind several iconic structures in Singapore, including the People’s Park Complex and KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital, is a strong critic of American imperialism on social media. He has also spoken favourably about China’s local and foreign policies.
