Wah rao eh!!!!!such a damning desposition of an article!!the house of Lee is burning!!!!faster somebody bring out the VX baby oil!!!
Since Lee Kuan Yew’s death, there have been changes in Singapore that do not
reflect what he stood for. Nobody ever doubted that Lee Kuan Yew always held the
best interests of Singapore and Singaporeans at heart. He was authentic and spoke
his mind. The same cannot be said for our brother, Lee Hsien Loong and his wife,
Ho Ching. We believe, unfortunately, that Hsien Loong is driven by a desire for
power and personal popularity. His popularity is inextricably linked to Lee Kuan
Yew’s legacy. His political power is drawn from his being Lee Kuan Yew’s son. We
have observed that Hsien Loong and Ho Ching want to milk Lee Kuan Yew’s legacy
for their own political purposes. We also believe, based on our interactions, that they
harbour political ambitions for their son, Li Hongyi.
1 Singapore has no such thing as the wife of the prime minister being a ‘first lady’. Lee
Kuan Yew was Prime Minister from 1959 to 1990. During those many years, his wife
(our mother) consistently avoided the limelight, remaining his stalwart supporter and
advisor in private. She lived discreetly, and set a high bar for the conduct of a prime
minister’s wife. She would never instruct Permanent Secretaries or senior civil
servants. The contrast between her and Ho Ching could not be more stark. While
Ho Ching holds no elected or official position in government, her influence is
pervasive, and extends well beyond her job purview.
