Hours after the Singapore government announced its intention to gazette 38 Oxley Road as a national monument, the current owner of the unit Lee Hsien Yang has responded on Nov 3, saying the decision «tramples on» Lee Kuan Yew's «unwavering wish» to demolish the house «in its entirety».In a statement posted on his Facebook page, Lee Hsien Yang said that his father was opposed to monuments, adding that the move «disrespects Lee Kuan Yew’s legacy and values».Lee also acknowledged that the plan to preserve 38 Oxley Road «effectively rejects» his demolition application made in October last year.
