  He wasn't a colluder but he did work for Japs as a translator. He had to run mid way because the Japs thought he was a British spy. There was actually rumours that he was a British spy. This was never confirmed nor denied.

  Who else... He is none other than the infamous or famous Lee Kuan Yew who in the eyes of some western critics ruled Singapore with a somewhat dictatorial style form of government.

  Isn't Harry his unofficial name?
  
  LKY comes from a generation whereby it is not common to have a Chinese to adopt an English name. Even now, there are such people. Alot of PRCs I know adopt an unofficial English name.
