the emphasis has always been about how we have come to where we are, you know, by perseverance, hardi experienced as a teenager. i thought it was time to show the ‘70s. so, i think that we are now a little bit more open. singapore is a little bit more grown—up and able to look at ourselves. i don't think this will cause a huge scandal. 0k. for audiences who may not be familiar with you elsewhere, you are considered the national treasure of singapore, the closest we have got to someone like elvis, i suppose. oh, my goodness! your career has gone in line with the economic transformation we have seen in singapore. but in this movie, we see how your early struggles were really tough for you, especially in a restrictive society. the ‘70s, the ‘60s in singapore was a good time for singapore with music. it was like the golden age. but in the ‘70s, everything ended because of national service and efforts to clean up singapore. that was when the long hair ban came in. if you played guitar and had long hair, you a drug addict. it was a bad image to have degenerative western culture and music.

it is unbelievable to hear the perseverance, and the integrity. the energy. i know she is going to make an enormous impact not just in her in business but her community. we talk about small business, how it is going to grow our economy and benefit american workers, but the amount of philanthropy being done on the local level by small business is a norm is enormous. i'm sure each of you can share your own stories just about how you are able to give back and you do in such a tremendous way. lisa story was moving to me. mrs. mcmahon: last year,, this year, during national small -- small business week there was a company just outside of austin, texas. their company was all about electronics and small circuit boards. you have a warehouse of all of these intricate circuit boards and electronic equipment. the river flooded and came in and just flooded their entire operation. water was deep. mud. i think it destroyed a third of their inventory. everybody they had in process. the gentleman who was the proprietor of this company said said what was so amazing, sba was a
