Father's Day (18 June 2017) today - Big News Developing...:*:
Something like:Wooden is now forming his own secret committee comprising mainly of the 2nd generation old guards to do a Mahatir on LHL.
Top of and the only agenda in today's secret meeting in Wooden's favourite treehouse in his backyard is to decide on the names submitted for the committee. The two favourites are "The Council of Elders" favoured by people like Hsu and the Slappee, and "The Wooden Club" which Wooden is pushing for.
I opine this is one area where the WP can bring up in Parliament. Let Pinky n his cronies defend their position.
ah Shan said something liao
Cabinet Committee
Mr Lee Hsien Yang has questioned my being in the Committee chaired by DPM Teo.
There are dozens of Cabinet Committees set up on a variety of matters. Some are permanent, some are temporary.
Their composition is not public and they report to the Cabinet.
I am well aware of the rules of conflict, having been in practice for over 22 years. The suggestion that I am in conflict is ridiculous. If Mr Lee Hsien Yang seriously believes that I was in conflict, he can get a lawyer to write to me and I will respond.
I was already a Cabinet Minister when I spoke with some members of the Lee family -- at their behest -- and gave them my views. They were not my clients. Nothing that I said then precludes me from serving in this Committee.
I am sure most Singaporeans are sick and tired about these endless allegations, which are quite baseless.
The government has serious business to attend to relating to the welfare of Singaporeans.

Shan's assertion that his inclusion in the committee does not constitute conflict is wrong. There is clear conflict here given the fact and his admission that he had previously advised the Lees on this issue in a private capacity.
However having said that the emails do show what appears to be Shan agreeing that the house be demolished. In other words if there were to be any decision or view expected from him that constitutes conflict it would be to decide to demolish Oxley.
However it seems that Shan seems to have changed his previous position on this.
But to be clear he should recuse himself from the committee.
Yes, the Tang dynasty Lee Emperors suffered a lot (to say the least) because of the following evil women:Serious question. What had Lee Kuan Yew done in his life to deserve this legacy? Any examples of well known Chinese families broken apart to this level?
The calm before the storm...
He also attached LWL's 2011 e-mail to him and Shanmugam:Lee Hsien Yang

DPM Teo has finally revealed the composition of the shadowy committee members. This was information that Wei Ling and I had asked for repeatedly from the outset for almost a year, and been denied. It is clear that a committee of one's subordinates, should not be sitting arbitrating an issue related to their boss. That is why the Committee is fundamentally flawed. As the subordinates of the PM, how can they possibly be in a position to deal in this private disagreement? This is the wrong forum.
We had expressed specific concerns on the possible membership of Shanmugam and his conflict of interest having advised Lee Kuan Yew and us on options to help achieve Lee Kuan Yew's wishes, and the drafting of the demolition wish. This represents a clear conflict of interest. When we raised this in writing, we were brushed off by Lawrence Wong with "Nothing you have stated precludes any member of the Cabinet from taking part in the Committee's work or its deliberations, with the exception of the Prime Minister." We found the refusal to identify the members of the committee, and to confirm Shanmugam's recusal particularly troubling as he is an experienced Senior Counsel and Minister for Law who should well understand the problem of conflicts of interests. Only now do we find out that he is indeed a member of this Committee.
Yes, posted at 5.51am (he must be losing sleep! :p):Salvo fired from Yang once again on FB, supported by Ling. Comes with hashtag woh! Hot! Hot! Hot!
Why don't they just demolish the house and then rebuild another one that looks exactly the same….but with
added modern accoutrements…like a foundation, for instance. Cunts like John Tan can chip in a few million each.
Will honoured….no one can complain.
When the email to the neh surfaced, there was this feeling that the siblings are also after him. With the latest development it is clearer now. The neh must have a part to the change of ag and setting up of committee. I think neh is in real shit. Remembered in the early days, his mountain was kfc. Lky doesn't like him. Did he bite the hands that helped him?
"DPM Teo added that the committee includes Cabinet members responsible for heritage, land issues and urban planning, namely Minister for Culture, Community and Youth Grace Fu, Minister for Law K Shanmugam, and Minister for National Development Lawrence Wong."

If you have not realized by now, Straits Times ISD times propagandizing like wartime Syonan Times. It is designed to say whatever that makes the dynasty look legitimate and was designed to ruin the brains of Singaporeans. Do not be surprised that all this is a guise to have oxley made a monument.
Most likely the state law will supercede Lky will.
Looks like all four of those Ministers are really determined to forbid LHY from demolishing the house, even if LHL were to suddenly/unexpectedly die (let's say, today! :p), in which case they would have another house to preserve:to be consistent with LKY's philosophy of doing anything that benefits Singapore, government should have final say , can and will use the land acquisition act to acquire Oxley if it deems so.
