SINGAPORE - Mr Lee Hsien Yang has been asked to carry a correction notice on a Facebook post he made on Sunday which commented on the Ridout Road saga.
That the State had paid for the renovations to No. 26 and 31 Ridout Road because the properties were leased by Law and Home Affairs Minister K. Shanmugam and Foreign Minister Vivian Balakrishnan. Firstly, the identity of the tenants had no bearing on the decision on the works to be carried out on the properties, said the ministry.
Secondly, on the point of trees being felled, MinLaw said the identity of the tenants had no bearing on the felling of the trees at the properties. Thirdly, Mr Lee's statement that SPH Media Trust had fraudulently inflated its circulation numbers was also untrue, said MinLaw.
