-

SINGAPORE: Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong’s family feud has spilled into politics, with his estranged younger brother joining an opposition party ahead of elections next month. Lee Hsien Yang said on Wednesday he has joined the Progress Singapore Party because he is concerned about issues such as governance and transparen­cy, but declined to say whether he will run in the July 10 polls. Lee Hsien Yang and his sister Lee Wei Ling had accused their eldest brother of abusing his power to stop them from demolishin­g the family home according to the wishes of their father, who died in 2015.
