If Lee Kuan Yew were the Chief Executive (CE) can he unite Hong Kong?

I.e. do his socialist magic like he did in 1957 onwards to confiscate land from Farmers and rich land owners for a song to build HDB (also sold to citizens for a song) http://eresources.nlb.gov.sg/history/eve...24e4cab8c6and give Hong Kongers hope by providing genuine social mobility, where every working adult can have access to affordable housing be it leasehold 99 years or just 1 year public rentals etc?


Or will LKY just humji and be a sock puppet, mouth piece of the rich tycoons in Hong Kong or worse, the CCP of China?

Mass protests may become the new normal for Hong Kong

Hong Kong youth unhappy with life in the city may turn more to street action. The only thing that can stop them will be a Hong Kong government that meets their need for secure housing and well-paying jobs
The protest marches which started last month in Hong Kong culminated in episodes of ugly violence at the Legislative Council (LegCo) Complex on Monday.

As 30,000 protesters surrounded the LegCo building, hundreds stormed inside by breaking glass panels and damaging the building's steel shutters. Once they entered the LegCo chamber, the protesters vandalised and destroyed equipment, portraits and documents. They also painted graffiti all over the walls. It was the worst violence seen in Hong Kong in recent years.

=====================
Looks like Hong Kong will be a long drawn and inherently difficult process and maybe even the trigger for WW3 if super powers don't handle the situation carefully since a failed HKG will result in greater Taiwanese and Xinjiang region aversion to China because it shows that communism/ dictatorship cannot improve the lives of people (most ordinary working people cannot afford to pay rent etc and stay in very cramped and unhygienic quarters in Hong Kong). HKG inequality is world's worst (Singapore is second), so unless the Chief Executive starts to confiscate land to build equavalent of HDB in Singapore for the HK residents, the HKG young are going to continue to protest until the median income is able to afford some semblance of a proper abode for people to call home.

LKY is probably Singapore's greatest leader whose solutions to unite the nation remains what Singapore can possibly offer to Hong Kong; which would then attract the question that even in applying the LKY Singapore solution, would LKY have achieved it in Hong Kong (or he humji and keep a low profile, migrate to China and become Xi Jingping page boy (arrest the protesters, create a secret police force, secret killing of political adversaries, have elections the like of N Korea (DPRK) which is actually just a population census called an election so it's citizens can believe that they are democratic as by their namesake)) etc etc.
