SINGAPORE (Reuters) – The Singapore Prime Minister’s brother will not contest the July 10 election, a party source said on Tuesday, after the deadline for nominations.
Successful candidates will be announced at 1230 local (0430GMT).
Lee Hsien Yang, who has been embroiled in a bitter family dispute with Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, last week joined the opposition to the party his father, Lee Kuan Yew, led through the city-state’s independence and rise as a nation.
