Lee Kuan Yew is a philosopher, autobiographer, lawyer born in Singapore (United States).
Lee Kuan Yew (born Harry Lee Kuan Yew; 16 September 1923 – 23 March 2015), often referred to by his initials LKY, was the first Prime Minister of Singapore, serving from 1959 to 1990. Lee is widely recognised as the founding father of the modern Singaporean state. His leadership helped transform post-independence Singapore into a highly developed country during his tenure. In 1954, Lee co-founded the People's Action Party (PAP), which won significant support among the working class. He secured a seat in the Tanjong Pagar division during the 1955 general election, becoming the de facto leader of the opposition. In 1959, Lee led to the PAP's first electoral victory, becoming Singapore's first Prime Minister. Seeking full sovereignty from Britain, Lee campaigned for a merger with other former British territories in a national referendum to form Malaysia in 1963.

Birth details come from a published reference (source: 765 Notable Horoscopes) and have not been checked against a birth record, so the Moon sign is usually right but the Ascendant could differ.
Computed with Swiss Ephemeris (Lahiri ayanamsa).
Our library holds 385 politicians with a computed Vedic chart from reliable birth data. 24 of them (6%) have the Moon in Scorpio, like Lee Kuan Yew, and 15 (4%) share the Anuradha Nakshatra — the #10 most common Moon Nakshatra among politicians, where Uttara Bhadrapada leads with 25 (6%).
For scale, an even spread would put about 3.7% in each of the 27 Nakshatras and 8.3% in each Moon sign. These are simple counts from our dataset, not a prediction.
