Let's see if this comes to pass
SINGAPORE: Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong on Sunday (Apr 10) responded to comments made on Facebook by his sister Lee Wei Ling claiming he was "abusing his power".
In a statement on Facebook, Mr Lee said: “I am deeply saddened by my sister Dr Lee Wei Ling’s claim that I have abused my power to commemorate the one-year anniversary of Mr Lee Kuan Yew’s passing in order to establish a dynasty. The accusations are completely untrue."

He didn't sue.

I do agree that it be set to national monument if it is open to public, and the history of pre-independence and the struggles, some of the then secret meetings (not details but some info) be provided in the building and made into a museum.

But this would be against the old man's publicized wish and will. He wants it torn down.

In my opinion, just tear it down. A museum or monument can be build anywhere, when we think of LKY we don't really straight away think or relate Oxley house to him, or for me at least. Don't have to be die die must be there.

Just demolish the thing. After all, it is lawfully stipulated in the deceased's will.

Why is There a ministerial committee to undermine someone's will.

To whom such committee report to? Everyone guess.

What a waste of public resources and monies. DIEW.

The court already granted the probate to the executors of the will.

Does the whatever commission now want to challenge the court on the authenticity of the will. Commission should ask the court the questions, who drafted the will, etc. The horse already bolted long time ago and now the commission wants to close the door.

Yes thus since the old man doesn't want his house to be open to public, and his wishes is to have it demolished, than so be it that it has to go.
Why is it that they want to subject it to cabinet to earmark it as monument?
