The Singapore prime minister's estranged brother said on Tuesday he will not contest the July 10 election as the city-state 'does not need another Lee'.
SINGAPORE - The Singapore prime minister’s estranged brother said on Tuesday he will not contest the July 10 election as the city-state “does not need another Lee”.
He has made multiple criticisms of the government in recent weeks, including its decision to hold the vote during the coronavirus pandemic, but his emergence was seen as unlikely to challenge the People’s Action Party’s tight grip on power. PSP chief Tan Cheng Bock told media on Tuesday Lee Hsien Yang did not want voters to think the family dispute was his motivation for entering politics.
The only opposition party with seats in parliament - the Workers’ Party - has warned they face a potential wipe-out in the upcoming election where physical campaigning has been severely restricted by virus safeguards.
