Singapore’s plan to preserve founding prime minister Lee Kuan Yew’s home as a national monument was condemned by his youngest son Tuesday, fueling a bitter, years‑long family dispute over the legacy of the city-state’s founding leader.
The government announced on Monday that it intends to preserve Lee’s residence at 38 Oxley Road after a heritage advisory body found the site to be of “national significance, with great historic merit, and worthy of preservation.”
