If LKY was not lucid, why did he voluntarily make a codicil to the Will some time after signing it? If he was truly misled, wouldn't he have revoked the Will? The facts are there for all Singaporeans to mull over. Let's just see who is trying to mislead who in this family saga. After all, trying to get one's way in a family feud by using the State's resources always ensures you have a better chance of winning. History is written by those in power.

Shengwu even indicated that the AGC had applied to strike out parts of Shengwu's own defense affidavit, with the result that they will not be considered at the trial. As for these strike out parts, the AGC also demanded that they be sealed in the court record, so that the public cannot know what the removed parts contain. Shengwu alleges that these showed the AGC were only acting for their own benefit, or that of his uncle, PM Lee. And thus, he decided that this would not be a fair trial, and thus, refused to participate in the one-sided court case.

PUB said town councils are responsible for maintaining and cleaning water tanks at Housing Board blocks. Obviously then, the AMKTC are responsible. And by extension, the MPs that serve the AMKTC should also hold themselves accountable.

Consider this. Each year, the AGO report finds multiple lapses across ministries they audit. Alarming, recurring lapses were found in many ministries. These issues identified will either compromise the governance of these organisations or involved questions on how millions of taxpayers money are spent. But, was anything other than hand slapping done by the government? Was there any decisive action taken, such as the one where Parliament unanimously voted for the WP MPs to be recused from AHTC's financial decision making?

It does seem like another failed project from the very people who are tasked with making Singapore successful. PM Lee and his bevy of civil servants will point to the thousands who still flock to Jewel everyday, but if this thousands of people do not spend their cash there, it is as good as a failure. After all, what good is a crowd if all they do is just take photos to be posted on their social media accounts, but keep their wallets firmly locked in their pocket.

It should also be noted that the EBRC had been tasked to reduce the size of the GRC already existing, and to increase the the number of Single wards. Mr Pritam Singh is also set to ask whether the EBRC can explain how they draw up the boundaries, and their reasons for creating GRC and absorbing of Single wards into a GRC.

Many Singaporeans question the timing of this new Law, indicating that if this was to be passed into Law, it should not be parachuted in immediately for the next election, but instead should be carried out for the next one. Many also questioned if the hurried nature of the Reserved Presidency Election was to stop Tan Cheng Bock from contesting, as he had been widely tipped to run for the President, and most said that he could have won.

In the recent India - ASEAN summit over the weekend that took place in Bangkok, PM Lee met with his counterpart, India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and declared that both ASEAN and India should redouble their efforts to improve economic integration.

The wife of Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, Ho Ching, has drawn online flak after she posted on her FB, vouching for public housing and called on people to make a “smarter wealth choice” and opt to live in HDB housing.

Note how the speech comes at a time when Singapore's General Election draws ever nearer, and also how he did not subtly try to hide his words. He said the PAP and NTUC to work together, not NTUC to work with the Singapore government, with opposition and all. So, he has gone all out to ask NTUC to work with a specific political party, thus bringing in partisan politics to a Trade Union.
