SINGAPORE - Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong is seeking damages in the region of $150,000 from blogger Leong Sze Hian over a libellous article he shared on Facebook, with the Prime Minister's lawyer arguing on Monday (Nov 30) that Mr Leong had not only made "stunning allegations", but had cynically politicised the case and recast PM Lee's effort to vindicate himself as victimisation.
