Kong Hee
Following the conviction of Rev. Kong Hee and five other co-conspirators in the City Harvest Church criminal breach of trust case, Singapore's biggest case in misuse of charitable funds, Rev. Yang wrote in a post on the church's website, describing the saga as having "brought incredible reproach to the Lord" and "given many people an opportunity to profane the Name of the Lord". He described Kong Hee as having "lost everything he worked so hard for, his whole life" after failing to "take heed to the proverb that says a good name is to be chosen rather than great riches".
