SINGAPORE - An e-book on the last will of the late founding prime minister Lee Kuan Yew came under the spotlight in a written reply by Senior Minister Teo Chee Hean in Parliament on Thursday.

“It is clear that the assertions in his book are calculated to mislead, as they are completely at odds with the findings and conclusions of the Court of Three Judges and the disciplinary tribunal.” Mr Thomas had said in the e-book that Mr Lee and Mrs Lee have been “cleared of all suspicion of improper motives or manipulations vis-a-vis Lee Kuan Yew and his will”. This is contrary to what the court and the tribunal had found, that the couple had lied under oath and acted dishonestly.

The tribunal and the court found that Ms Lee Suet Fern had acted with complete disregard for Mr Lee Kuan Yew’s interests. PHOTO: ST FILE Ms Kwa Kim Li was the lawyer who had prepared the first six versions of the late Mr Lee’s will. PHOTO: ST FILE Mr Thomas concluded in the e-book that the late Mr Lee had signed the will that he wanted to sign, even though the court and the tribunal found that he had ended up signing a will he did not wish to sign because he was misled by Mr Lee Hsien Yang and Mrs Lee.
