    Every time Lee talks about Zhou, he made a thumbs-up gesture to show his respect.

    "Zhou Enlai came to the conference with a prepared speech. After listening to the speeches against China, I saw him leading the Chinese delegation in a walk back to their hotel room. There was a big crowd clapping hands when the delegation walked out of and back into the Merdeka Building in Bandung," Lee said. "When Zhou returned to the conference table, he threw away his prepared speech and spoke off the cuff."

    "That came to be the historical moment of China's diplomacy," Lee said.

    Zhou said he had come to the conference to seek peace and not enemies. He said China was willing to negotiate with America for peace.

    "Zhou's speech totally changed the atmosphere of the whole conference. He became the very center of the stage, with everyone' s attention on him."

    For then 31-year-old Lee, this was not the only impressive moment with Zhou.

    "I have always remembered one sentence from Zhou - overseas Chinese like you should take part in politics," Lee recalled.

    "Many people at that time were hesitant to step into politics, but after the Bandung Conference, a lot changed their minds," Lee said.

    For Lee himself, Zhou's words had also more or less changed his life. Lee didn't make up his mind to join politics after the Bandung Conference, but was finally persuaded by then Singapore's Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew in 1959, an old friend who Lee Khoon Choy met when he went to London to attend a class for advanced study in journalism ten years prior (1949).
