The Last Wish
October 15th, 2024 | 
Author: aka THE LAST WISH OF LEE WEI LING, LEE KUAN YEW AND CHINESE EMPERORS OF YORE
It's no surprise the recent passing of Lee Wei Ling brings back the issue of the fate of the late Lee Kuan Yew's residence to hit social media again. LKY had wished that after his death, and after his daughter Wei Ling no longer resides there, 38 Oxley Road is to be demolished. Singaporeans understood, and respected LKY's well-known disdain for any monument or memorial of any kind in his name. The government of Singapore, under the premiership of Lee Hsien Loong, had made the decision to retain the house as a heritage site against the wishes of LKY. An acrimonius sibling fued arose with elder son Hsien Loong standing with the government decision, and Wei Ling and younger son Lee Hsien Yang adamant on honouring their father's dying wish. The disagreement has torn apart the family of Singapore's first Prime Minister. But I wonder in every Singaporean houshold where they have younger ones, how do they explain to their children.
I wish for them the matter can be resolved and the surviving brothers can find closure. It is really sad that the matter has to come to the stage that a daughter had to speak from the grave through a request to her younger brother Hsien Yang to include in his eulogy an appeal to Singaporeans to help honour their father's wish for the demolition of the house. Try to wrap your mind around this. In the last couple of years battling progressive supranuclear palsy (a Parkinson-like illness) when death was imminent and with a ravaged body, her thought was on the fulfillment of her father's final wish for the demolition of the house. Some folks may be asking why is this such a big deal. Unless one appreciates Chinese culture, the point is lost. This has been a dagger at the heart of one of the highest moral values of Chinese culture - filial piety.
In ancient Chinese history, many emperors had their last wishes granted posthumously. Most of these wishes involved burial arrangements, succession plans, or political instructions. Some last wishes shaped the actions of their successors and affected the course of Chinese history. I thought it might be interesting to take a look at some of these.
Emperor Qin Shi Huang (259–210 BCE)
The first emperor of a unified China and founder of the Qin Dynasty, Shi Huang Ti wished to be buried with a vast army of terracotta warriors to protect him in the afterlife. His wish was granted, and the Terracotta Army was constructed in his tomb near Xi'an. This army of life-sized figures, consisting of soldiers, horses, and chariots, was discovered in 1974 and stands as one of the most remarkable archaeological finds in history. It must have cost the Treasury significantly, but the fiscal spending must also have increased their GDP as hordes of workers must have increased domestic consumption with their wages.
Emperor Wen of Han (203–157 BCE)
Emperor Wen of Han was known for his benevolence and frugal rule. His final wish left in a will was for a simple burial. He emphasized that there should be no extravagant funerary goods or large-scale constructions for his tomb. His son, Emperor Jing of Han, honored this request by ensuring a modest tomb with fewer adornments, aligning with his father's Confucian ideals of simplicity and restraint. Hmmm I hear an echo here somewhere.
Emperor Wu of Han (156–87 BCE)
Wu, one of the longest-reigning emperors of the Han Dynasty, was remorseful for certain military campaigns and extravagant spending toward the end of his reign. In his final years, he issued an edict to limit the power of court officials and reduce the financial burden on the people. His successor, Emperor Zhao of Han, honored this wish by implementing reforms that stabilized the economy, reduced military campaigns, and reduced taxes on the population.
Emperor Xian of Han (181–234 CE)
During the Three Kingdoms era, the last emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Xian, was a puppet ruler under the power behind the throne, warlord Cao Cao. He was eventually forced to abdicate and the throne given to Cao Cao's son Cao Pi.. Xian was allowed to live as a noble. Not quite sure if that was due to the magnanmity of Cao Cao or a matter of appeasement to the remaining loyal officials. Emperor Xian’s request was to be buried with honor after his death. Even though the Han Dynasty had ended, Cao Pi ensured that Xian was given a respectful posthumous title and burial.
Emperor Taizong of Tang (598–649 CE)
Taizong, one of the greatest emperors of the Tang Dynasty. He had a wish for his favorite general, Li Shiji, to help his son and successor, Emperor Gaozong, in matters of state after his death. After Taizong's death, Li Shiji faithfully served under Gaozong, fulfilling his former emperor's last request, helping the young Gaozong stabilise the empire.
Emperor Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty (1638–1661 CE)
Shunzhi's deathbed wish was for his third son, the young Kangxi Emperor, to succeed him under the regency of trusted officials, including his own uncle, Oboi. The regents placed Kangxi on the throne at the age of 7 and helped him ride the throes of palace intriques and power struggles during his youth, thus maintaining stability till Kangxi eventually took control and became one of the most successful emperors in Chinese history.
Emperor Yongle of Ming (1360–1424 CE)
Yongle was one of the most influential emperors of the Ming Dynasty. he wanted his massive naval expeditions, led by Admiral Zheng He, continue after his death to project Chinese power and expand trade routes. For several years after Yongle's death, his successors continued his wish, allowing Zheng He to complete further voyages, although the expeditions were eventually halted by later emperors.
Emperor Hongzhi of Ming (1470–1505 CE)
Hongzhi was a careful and competent emperor. His dying wish was for his son, Zhengde, to maintain his reformist policies, reduce corruption, and care for the people. Emperor Zhengde respected his father’s legacy for a while. Unfortunately, he later turned dishonourable and became extravagant and irresponsible. So Hongzhi's wish was partially honoured
Emperor Guangxu of Qing (1871–1908 CE)
The hated Empress Dowager Cixi casted a powerful shadow over the last years of the Qing Empire. She was the effective power behind the throne. Emperor Guangxu was largely controlled by her. Guanxi expressed a wish for reform and modernization having actively pushed for the Hundred Days’ Reform in 1898, seeking to modernize China’s political and educational systems. During his lifetime, Cixi stifled many of the emperor's reforms. After his death, honourable officials were the late reformers who eventually implemented several of his reforms whcih continued into the early Republican era. The shift toward modern governance and institutions aligned with his wishes.
THE EMPEROR IS DEAD. LONG LIVE THE EMPEROR
Baring no malice and within confines of legality, our sense of decency demands the dying wish of someone dear to be carried out as best we can. It is not just a matter of honouring the dead, but a message to the living of what encompasses responsibility and discipline.

Nothing last forever.
All things come and go.
Even the seasons.
This summer is not exactly the same as the last and the last was not the same as the ones before.
Only good works can produce good fruits.
Bad actions bring about bad consequences for oneself or for others.
The effects of the good works and actions of a person is far more valuable or meaningful than any monument in his honour.
LKY once said to his grassroot not to waste money on tentages.
What more the construvtion and recurrent costs of a wasteful monument?
The Spirit of 1G leaders must be revered and treasured or we have failed to honour them in action.

True be told – I don’t care not even a bit what happen to that house.
It really has zero meaning or significant to me.
But apparently it meant a lot to some people.
This is a personal problem, so please don’t waste taxpayers $$$$, not even 1 cent, on it.
I believe most Singaporeans can’t be bother.
The only thing is probably seeing certain people get heartburn while trying to get his own way.
By all means go ahead, but spare us the $$$.

If Oxley knock down,last wish come true.
If not,cannot RIP properly.
Thats an easy last wish.
Many NATION-BUILDING PIONEERS wished their posterity lead a better life.
But their wish are being dashed.
Their kids may even have to sell the HDB these oldies purchased with blood ,sweat and tears?
Last wish?
Whose last wish more important?
Tech: Err… Oxley is a milk cow, there are still milk left, so knock down is a waste of precious resources.

@Justsayonly
I agree with you. If Hsien Yang, the rightful owner of the house does not give a shit about the $50m house, why should anyone of us bother whether it is turned into an amusement park or torn down?
Ordinary people like us already have a lot of things to worry about.

LHL must be infuriated that his little sister and brother dare to oppose his wishes. He even got the entire Cabinet i.e. the MIW to display their whole arsenal to his brother, sister and the rest of SG (by building the Founders’ Memorial) just to show that the MIW’s always get their way. Now, what about the daft sinkies? What do they think will happen to them if they dare oppose the MIW?

seriously I believe nobody gives a fiack too. but for me..i hope the house not be demolished…for that will prolong the conflict infinitely.
if you demo the house…then the story and conflict ends there 100%..no more conflict…let it drag like Israel vs palestine.

All 1G papigs would not have approve of building the $355M Tomb.
Almost all right thinking Singaporeans know that it is waste of tax monies.
Dr. Goh Keng Swee will be the one that will be most against it.
Yes the Dr. Goh that build this country.
Citizens must now monitor with microscopes how the contracts for this Tomb are given out.
Who gets it. How is it given out.
Let us publish the name of the contractor that build it.
And the contractor that will maintain it.
It is going to be a very very expensive White Elephant for the Men-In-Supposedly-White.

The Dead Despot made the entire fucking island a memorial to his vainglorious life. Just change the name to LKY Island and be done with it. Everywhere we turn his face will pop up to remind us of his ever present memory.
Go to the National Museum – in the area reserved for Singapore’s history only he is eulogised as the founder, protector and saviour of this island. No one else comes even close, a tribute to his trademark Emperor status that no one can question or end up in jail.
He has wiped out the real history and replaced it with one where without him this island is nothing, the people are nothing and even dead we must worship him in awe. I think even in North Korea people are not so stupid.

Mr Low mentioned China. All of u can see clearly i m not the one who initiate it.

Lee Kwan Yew also wished Singapore main island shall NOT have nuclear power station.
If forced to go nuclear, then install on offshore vessel that can be towed away with robot ship.
Imagine the loss of government land sales revenues. Which pregnant woman will buy expensive condo near nuclear?

After watching the stress in Ukraine and Iran, imagine how much air defense and police need to be deployed at nuclear power station.

In the first place, someone shouldn’t have recluse himself because he has a dual identity, a son and government head. There is absolutely no grounds to deny someone who is the legal owner of a property and his own father what was stated.
That so-called founding father already said no hero worship. As if the father’s records in local and overseas history books weren’t enough, the whole nation must carry the shame that his wish can be brushed off anytime. That father already got a long procession sendoff on the day but not enough. Still want to invoke that government clause just because it is there. How about invoking that clause for every citizen as and when they like?
At the point when that father was still around, why didn’t that camp make it clear on mainstream media about the three options. They must wait till he passed on then bring up for discussion because they need his silence badly. Call themselves government but having a penchant for sneaky stuff.
Born with silver spoon and just splashed the amount like nobody’s business.
Even if that committee is paying for the capital costs of the memorial, it’s also taking up precious maintenance costs and local space. Not their own money huh?
One must be a moron not to see that they are overdoing things to maintain more hegemony.
If we look at the grand scheme of things, that’s how that camp works. On their own cannot survive else why have GRCs for this long when the minorities can come out anytime? That’s why they need to ride on the coattails of someone even if the person is dead.
One has to be a moron not to see all these.

A father had 2 sons and he gave them quite clear instructions: he wanted no monument to be built in his name, and to have his house demolished after his death. The older son decided to go ahead with building the monument anyway and at great costs; the younger son decided to demolish the house to fulfill his father’s wish. Which of the two do you think honors the father? To each his opinion.
loading...
Yes that would be good for the country.
The Lees have been more than anything else,a very divisive side-show for this nation since 1980s.
Dishonourable son can migrate to where his brother is.
LKY told him to take care of the family.
Since he cannot come back Dishonourable should join him.
Make peace.
Sinkieland would be far far better without the Lees.
We will move on from here…without this baggage.
No need for $355M Tomb.
Tomb building is so archaic.The Egyptians used to do it.
The year is 2024.
King Tut died in 1323B.C…..

The house should be demolished. If the basement has history to preserve, reconstruct it in the museum. There is no need for actual structures to remain in a digital world. A click on our computer is enough to be able to visualize the house and read its history. This way it will not be a burden to taxpayers to maintain the house for years to come. The Founders Park should also be ditched. Smart Nation should have a 3d version set up in the museum. We should have access to it on our computers.All the 3G Ministers should resign and allow the 4G to take over completely or we are going to be addressing issues from the 3G era which is totally unnecessary. LHL and TCH should set examples by resigning. They are redundant workforce. We should be dealing with issues of today like high living costs not of yesteryears. The house is not relevant to the State or us, citizens. It does not change our lives in anyway.

Why Were There So Many Skeletons Hidden in Benjamin Franklin’s Basement?
During restorations in the 1990s, more than 1,200 pieces of bone surfaced beneath the founding father’s London home.
For nearly two decades leading up to the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Benjamin Franklin was a boarder in a house at 36 Craven Street in London. The future founding father left his English home and returned to America in 1775. Two centuries later, bones from more than a dozen bodies were found in the basement, where they had been buried in a mysterious, windowless room beneath the garden.
The team called in the coroner, but forensic investigations suggested that the bones were quite old. In fact, they had likely been buried in the home some 200 years ago—around the time that Franklin resided in it.

Why not build another oxley at the Founders’ Memorial just like the Surrender Chamber exhibit, since you only want to showcase the dinning area where the ministers held the meeting?
Take a step back (一人让一步), demolish the house.
@”But I wonder in every Singaporean houshold where they have younger ones, how do they explain to their children.”
Response: no matter how well- planned, parents tend to leave some problems for their children. Children shows filial piety in their own ways bcoz of different characters. So, when there is conflict, recall your parents’ teaching. Family harmony is important or parents’ wish is important? Is family harmony one of parents’ wishes?

Just because sgs are pissed off with the way Sg is now being run does not mean they have to leave.
Bona fide sgs will make sure Sg belongs to Sgs again.
PAP is not Sg and not the only sgs.
True,too many sgs have been farked badly by their own leaders recently.
This is all wrong and must be corrected by 4G or by other new government.
WP says it just wants to co-drive.
That means sgs need badly to vote in other sgs from PSP or SDP to see real change.
Only idiots keep sneering and smearing other sgs.
Also true,CHINA IS PROGRESSIVE.
What is wrong for sgs here to say the truth?
So,saying UK is more democratic is not acceptable?

Who was the leader/leaders?
Go examine your consciences.
Praise and glorification?
I say TRUE REFLECTION AND REPENTANCE!
No one is above the “LAW” ,so say some PEOPLE.
But more important,NO ONE IS ABOVE GOD.

Like i said, if China really good by all means just go and live there legally or illegally.
China Yunnan border patrol personels ( never receive numerations several months ) are quietly letting prcs out to foreign countries. Prcs just pass them ang bao of certain figures will do. I figure probably work as well for going into China.
Even Myanmar civilians went hiding into Yunnan to avoid their country civil war. Good time for you people to sneak in.

EVs ?
Let me highlight some facts about China EVs or at least what i know.
How many China EVs less Tesla currently you see in Sg multistorey carpark. You walked into any one or a few and do your counting.
Even Shenzhen , Hangzhou commercial and gov buildings banned EV going into their underground carparks. When it burns it burns baby. Explosions are not rule out. Burn the entire parking lots with other vehicles as well.
BYD and others brand’s vehicle service charge is expensive especially replacing batteries. Sometime cost as much as half or more of the vehicle cost price. Tesla on the hand the batteries are less costly and easier to service. Endorse by China workshops owners. China brands companies pushed away all responsibilities. Try China radio programme, 城市私家车 hosted by prc lady 晓北. You will know more.
Not sure if they dared to do that in Sg. I doubt so. But i know in Malaysia, Cherry is doing that to the Malaysian customers giving them headaches.
Charging stations also not enough so much so that prcs drivers cut queue and fought over it in China. When 限电, even queue from 8pm to 3am in the morning still not your turn.
China EVs no resell value. China 2nd hand used car dealers also refused to buy in. Due to too many fire incidents, Insurance coverage way more costly than petrol car. Some insurance companies also refused to cover the EVs.
EVs not suitable in countries extremely hot or cold else the battery failure rate goes up and lifespan shorten very fast.
If i m rich i also buy a Ang Mo car at least accident wont died and injuries keep to minimum.
Even N Korea Kim also drive ang mo car.

I think it is stupid idea to demolish the house. The house is build by workers’ labor and sweat and it has value including monetary value. But I also think taxpayers’ money should not be use to buy the house. House should not be destroy as things should not be destroyed for wrong reason. Learn to value things and hard work.

Have you ever wonder why
1) they are your brothers?
2) they gave money to other people but not you? (If I recall correctly, you mentioned that before)?
Do not trust yourself too bcoz you (your body 色身) are ‘fake’.
In real life, people sometimes will sell their own soul to the devil(出卖灵魂给魔鬼).

What is wrong,mandate strong?
Plenty is wrong.
You only choose to quote one-side but not those that criticise.
Since you are expert at cut and paste(quote) ,why just quote the one-sided .
What is wrong,PAP mandate Strong.
If ‘mandate strong’,why need GRC plus POFMA plus Kaninah?

Well said. That one always quotes whatever he likes, adds more (fake) stories, and tries to appear righteous. He has no brain power to look at other sides or do any real analysis.
