    Dr Lee Wei Ling's Post

    Bilahari has falsely claimed that my brother Yang bought Oxley Road for $1 and that Yang is angry because he is prevented from monetising the property. Bilahari has no basis to make such a statement. Yang did not buy the house for $1. He paid market price for the house to buy it from Loong, and made a further 50% of the value of the house as a donation to charity.
    Furthermore, Yang bought it knowing that Pa had given me the right to live in the house for as long as I wished. He also bought it knowing that URA and NHB had issued a statement in Apr “In view of the historical significance of the property, if a decision is made to allow for the demolition of the house, the Government is likely to disallow the site to be redeveloped in a way that would diminish its historical significance, for example, for commercial or intensive residential development.”
    To suggest that Yang bought the house with a view to making a profit is completely baseless and false.

    How you can help relief efforts

    Deadly floods in Kerala, Laos, Myanmar and South India, the devastating Lombok earthquakes, hundreds of lives lost, thousands displaced – the rash of natural disasters in recent weeks could overwhelm even the most seasoned of humanitarian workers.

    But secretary general and CEO of Singapore Red Cross (SRC), Benjamin William, 59, remains calm by necessity, as he coordinates international relief efforts from his office in Penang Lane.

    As Salt&Light visits the former statesman in office, he excuses himself a number of times to take urgent calls from government officials and address staff who are rushing out a press release.

    &#;Ending up in Red Cross is a continuation of the story of how God is guiding my life.&#;

    “I don’t visit disaster areas in the emergency phase because as secretary general, when you go, you are actually pulling a lot of people away from their tasks,” he says, giving us a glimpse of the urgent and critical work behind the scenes.

    He visits a disaster zone a few weeks after the emergency, in order to meet with local leaders and assess the needs of rebuilding.
