Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) Lee Kuan Yew
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) Lim Chin Siong was Lee Kuan Yew's most prominent opponent within the People's Action Party and subsequently his main opposition when Lim formed the Barisan Sosialis. Lim is mentioned prominently throughout Lee Kuan Yew's article and is the subject of critical commentary in the political relationship between the two men during the 1961 PAP split and his subsequent arrest during Operation Coldstore. Without an image, the reader is unable to adequately visualise who Lee's main rival is even after numerous paragraphs and sections. A portrait of him would add immensely to the viewer's experience on who Lee was facing.
Not replaceable with
free media because
(WP:NFCC#1)
Lim died in 1996 and did not publish any memoirs. Per Singapore's Copyright Act, photos published prior to 1987 expires only 70 years after the date they were taken. The earliest photos of Lim are only available from 1955, with this photo in particular listed as "1950s". The earliest one would expect a free photo to be available is 2026.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) This particular version of the file is only used once on Lee Kuan Yew's page in the lead up to Lim Chin Siong splitting from the party and forming the Barisan Sosialis, and is placed in the most optimum position of the page at the height of his career.
Respect for
commercial opportunities
(WP:NFCC#2)
This particular version of the file is of significantly lower resolution than the one on Lim Chin Siong's own page. It has also been cropped slightly to preserve the commercial rights of the National Archives of Singapore. The low resolution and cropping ensures it will not infringe on any commercial rights of the National Archives who retains the full portrait of the individual. The National Archives is also not a press agency.
