"Wei Ling and I stated in June 2017 that “We do not trust Lee Hsien Loong as a brother or as a leader.” These latest facts speak volumes. Hsien Loong’s regime does not deserve Singaporeans’ trust," Lee Hsien Yang wrote on his FB page
Pointing to his brother’s recent remarks that the people trust the PAP because of the party’s high standards of propriety and personal conduct and its commitment to stay clean and incorrupt, Mr Lee Hsien Yang said: “Trust has to be earned. It cannot simply be inherited.” The Lee family feud has gripped Singapore for over five years after it became public in 2017, following the death of founding Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew. The late elder statesman’s younger children, Lee Wei Ling and Lee Hsien Yang, accused their elder brother Lee Hsien Loong of abusing his power as prime minister to advance his political interests.
In 2018, a year after the dispute became public, PM Lee described the family feud as “abeyance.” He said, “I’m not sure if it’s solved,” before adding that he was still saddened by the dispute over the siblings’ family home. He expressed hope that relations with his siblings will improve in future when “emotions have subsided.”
Mr Li, a renowned assistant economics professor at Harvard University who was awarded the prestigious Sloan Fellowship, paid the fine but did not attend the hearing.
