• October 25 2024 | THE TIME FOR THAT DECISION IS NOW
PM Lawrence Wong, the decision on 38 Oxley Road is your responsibility. In Lee Kuan Yew’s will, he wished for his house to be demolished “immediately after” Wei Ling was not there. The time for that decision is now. Link here to: Facebook Post.
In 2018, NHB did thorough study, and submitted this 31 page report of their study to the Ministerial committee. No doubt much research went into that study. Why the need to study further now? Link here to: Facebook Post.
• October 23 2024 | BBC: UK GIVES ASYLUM TO SON OF SINGAPORE FOUNDER OVER PERSECUTION CLAIMS
"The son of modern Singapore's founder has gained asylum in the UK following claims of persecution amid a high-profile family feud. Lee Hsien Yang has long alleged he faces oppression back home from the Singapore government that was led for 20 years by his brother, Lee Hsien Loong."
Full story here.
• October 22 2024 | THE GUARDIAN INTERVIEW
"Lee Hsien Yang says Singapore is no ‘paradise’ after fleeing authoritarian regime that his older brother inherited and still holds sway over through their revered father’s legacy."

• October 22 2024 | POLITICAL REFUGEE
I am a political refugee from Singapore under the 1951 UN Refugee Convention.
In 2017, my sister Wei Ling and I declared, “We do not trust Hsien Loong as a brother or as a leader.” We stated that we feared the abuse of the organs of the Singapore state against us and against my family. Because of that risk, I was unable to attend Wei Ling’s funeral.
I sought asylum protection in 2022. The Singapore government’s attacks against me are in the public record. They prosecuted my son, brought disciplinary proceedings against my wife, and launched a bogus police investigation that has dragged on for years. On the basis of these facts, the UK has determined that I face a well-founded risk of persecution, and cannot safely return to Singapore.
I sought asylum protection as a last resort. I remain a Singapore citizen and hope that some day it will become safe to return home.

• October 15 2024 | I AM APPLYING TO DEMOLISH 38 OXLEY ROAD
To honour my parents’ last wishes, I am applying to demolish the house at 38 Oxley Road and thereafter to build a small private dwelling, to be held within the family in perpetuity.
I am the sole legal owner of 38 Oxley Road. After my sister's passing, I am the only living executor of my father Lee Kuan Yew’s estate. In his will, he wished for the house to be demolished “immediately after” Wei Ling moved out of the house. It is my duty to carry out his wishes to the fullest extent of the law.

• May 12 2024 | ATTACKED AGAIN
I have recently been attacked in the Singapore state controlled propaganda machinery relying on findings that have been overturned in Court. It is disgraceful that they should do so. It is pathetic that they continue to rehash allegations by PM Lee seven years after the whole saga came to light, and reflect his continued attempts to rewrite history.

• March 7 2023 | SINGAPORE - MY COUNTRY
I am heart-broken that I have been made a fugitive by my own country, for standing up for a promise to my father, Lee Kuan Yew.

• April 22 2021 | JUDGE: KKL STATEMENTS WERE FALSE AND MISLEADING
Judge Valerie Thean: "I agree that the statements in Ms Kwa’s 4 June 2015 Email and 22 June 2015 Email, as a factual matter, could be said to be prima facie false and misleading.”

• January 10 2021 | TIMOTHY DUTTON QC OPINION
“The Court's reasoning in its judgment is legally unsound and falls into serious error.”
“the judgment of the Court and its conclusion that LSF committed misconduct is flawed."
“In my view, such findings would not be sustained on any appeal were one to be available against the judgment of the Court. Further, since the findings of misconduct are untenable no sanction should have been imposed.”

• November 30 2020 | SCMP LETTER - SIR DAVID LEWIS
When I hosted a lunch for Lee Kuan Yew in 2008 in London, he told me of his trust and admiration for her. Who will believe that he would have had any objection to his daughter-in-law helping to arrange for the witnessing of his will, which she did not draft, or that she acted in any way improperly? In my view, she has been unjustly suspended, a stain on the international reputation of Singapore.

• November 20 2020 | LEE KUAN YEW WAS CONTENT WITH HIS WILL
My Wife's Statement:
The Court of Three did not find that he [LKY]was of unsound mind or that he was not in control. He made the decision to revert to his landmark 2011 will following discussions with his lawyer Kwa Kim Li before I was tasked to find a witness.
The Court of Three found that “he [LKY] was content with it [this will]”.
The Court of Three found “no solicitor-client relationship existed” between Lee Kuan Yew and myself. The Court found there was no dishonesty in my dealings with Lee Kuan Yew and there was no finding that the will was procured by fraud or undue influence.
Probate for Lee Kuan Yew’s will had been granted by the courts in 2015. Probate had been sought on the urging of Lee Hsien Loong and Lucien Wong, before he became Attorney-General.”

• August 13 2020 | COURT OF 3 JUDGES
The Disciplinary Proceedings that culminated in today's hearing before the Court of 3 Judges were initiated on the premise that my wife and I had sought to gain financially at the expense of my sister.
Evidence presented established conclusively that my father reached a decision to revert to equal shares unilaterally after discussing it with his lawyer Kwa Kim Li.
At the hearing today, Counsel for my wife, Mr Kenneth Tan S.C. and Prof Walter Woon S.C. argued the case forcefully before the Court.

•June 14 2020 | WE DO NOT TRUST HSIEN LOONG AS A BROTHER OR AS A LEADER.
On 14 Jun 2017 Yang and I made public our concerns in a Facebook post entitled “What has happened to Lee Kuan Yew’s Values?” We stated that “We do not trust Hsien Loong as a brother or as a leader. We have lost confidence in him.”
Events since then have only served to reinforce our view."

• January 9 2019 | DISHONEST ALLEGATIONS OF CHEATING BY LHL
The AGC’s complaint repeats allegations made years ago by Hsien Loong through Lucien Wong, his personal lawyer (now AG). I debunked these allegations 2017. See post I made then.

•August 13 2018 | GAVEL ROUSERS
The Economist: "The government has little compunction about curbing freedom of expression. A law adopted in 2017 makes it harder for groups to assemble in public. Recent changes to rules that govern the creation and exhibition of films allow film-makers’ possessions to be seized without a warrant. Many worry that proposed laws aimed at countering fake news could be used to limit free speech yet more. For some, the government’s repressive instincts are the real scandal. "

• April 3 2018 | RESPONSE TO THE REPORT OF THE ONCE SECRET COMMITTEE
The Committee's statement does not accurately represent Lee Kuan Yew's wishes. After our father's passing, Loong urged us to obtain probate for Lee Kuan Yew's will, with full knowledge of its contents. The court granted probate for Lee Kuan Yew's will in October 2015, so it is the full, final, and legally binding statement of his wishes for the house. Combined with Lee Kuan Yew's numerous and unwavering public statements on the matter, there is more than enough documentary evidence for a future government to understand - and hopefully grant - our father's last wish.

• July 6 2017 | A SUMMARY OF EVIDENCE AND A JOINT STATEMENT
