Rich People Problems-Kwan 2017 (WWT)

v. To my daughter-in-law Eleanor SUNG, I bequeath a box of Santa Maria Novella
Almond Soap.
(All the women in the room gasped audibly, while Eleanor simply broke out in laughter.
Nick glanced at his mother, not understanding. Jacqueline whispered to Nick, “She’s
letting everyone know she thinks your mother was a dirty woman.”)
vi. To my cherished granddaughter Astrid LEONG, who in every way takes after my
mother’s style, I bequeath my collection of cheongsams, ceremonial robes,
vintage textiles, hats, and accessories.
vii. To my dear granddaughter Cecilia CHENG MONCUR, champion equestrienne, I
bequeath a Chinese scroll painting of a galloping herd of horses from the
Northern Song period by Li Gonglin.
viii. To my loyal and always amusing grand-nephew Oliver T’SIEN, I give and
bequeath the pair of Émile-Jacques Ruhlmann table lamps from my dressing
room and my signed first edition of W. Somerset Maugham’s Far Eastern Tales.
(Oliver: Niiiiiice.)

know they have been amply provided for by the Leong Family Trusts.
(Henry Leong Jr.: What generous legacy? Gong Gong only left me $1 million, and I
was just a little kid!)
4. Legacy of Historical Archives, Photographs, Documents, Personal
Letters, and Ephemera. I bequeath ownership and all copyrights and intellectual
property rights of my personal archive at Tyersall Park, including all family
photographs, letters, journals, and documents to my dearest grandson, Nicholas
YOUNG, the noted historian of our family.
5. Legacy of Shares. I bequeath my 1,000,000 Ling Holdings Pte Ltd Preference
Shares—which Ling Yin Chao lost to me during an epic mah-jongg battle in 1954—to
my beloved goddaughter Jacqueline LING. If she does not survive me, I bequeath the
