Dear Mrs Fraser,

                   I was deeply saddened to learn of Mr Fraser’s passing. I had both the honour and pleasure of working with him on the InterAction Council of Former Heads of State and Government. He will be missed. 


                   Mr Fraser was a giant in Australian politics and will be remembered for the strength of his convictions. He was a man of principle and worked tirelessly in pursuit of the best interests of the Australian people.

                   I send my deepest condolences to you and your family for your loss. My thoughts are with you during this difficult time.

Yours sincerely,

GOH CHOK TONG
