A family feud involving the children of late Singapore leader Lee Kuan Yew burst back into public view on Wednesday as one of his sons said he now felt “compelled” to leave the country.

Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong’s two younger siblings posted a joint six-page statement on Facebook saying they had “lost confidence” in him and no longer trusted him.
