SINGAPORE, Aug 29 (The Straits Times/ANN): All races are treated equally in Singapore with no special privileges for any, said Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong on Sunday (Aug 29).

Making this point during the Mandarin portion of the National Day Rally, PM Lee said it is "entirely baseless" to claim that there is Chinese privilege here.
