A dispute between the children of late Singaporean leader Lee Kuan Yew has damaged the country’s reputation and could dent public confidence in the government if it continues, according to his son, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong.
Lee spoke in parliament on Monday in a bid to lay to rest a spat with his two siblings over the estate of the country’s first prime minister, who died in 2015. Still, in his speech he acknowledged the dispute was unlikely to ever be resolved fully.
