Painfully, Singapore lost one of most talented young man.
A brain drain

His working in Harvard has nothing to do with his court case.
I am sure it was his career choice to self-braindrain, to teach in Harvard rather than in NUS.
When he was still in his early schooling years doing hi first degree, I already knew he was a very brilliant chap. He was academically gold. But he seemed to follow his other grandfather's footsteps, has more of his DNA than LKY's.
And you do know that LKY is (was) not his only grandfather right. Lim Chong Yah is also his grandfather....who wrote Econs books which are used in JC, and also chaired the NWC for years. He is a well known Economist, and his grandson Shengwu takes after him.
So, I used to wonder if he would be the next PM, but now I doubt so. He is more of an academic than a politician. Or a leader of a country.

"Mr Li Shengwu
has said in an interview published on Friday (Aug 18) that he left Singapore because of concerns that he might be detained by the authorities in a contempt of court case.
In the interview with Reuters, Mr Li, who is the son of PM Lee's brother Lee Hsien Yang, said: "In Singapore, it is possible that one can be detained and interrogated for some time without a lawyer.
"My friends had warned me that they were concerned for my safety if I remained in Singapore," he added."

That fellow lacks character and integrity. Said something and totally forgot everything. Suddenly, can change directions so fast like the wind.

On the contrary, you need to beat other world champions to win an Olympic Gold while the Nobel Prize...hmmm....it's not what it used to be anymore.
Having said that, I did not derive any pride in JS winning gold in swimming, and I don't think I would be proud if LSW or any other sinkie wins a Nobel Prize. It's their ahcievemnet and the medal or cup is theirs to display in their house, not mine. I even doubt if they did all these for Singapore, or for me. So why should I care and be proud?
