Bruce Lee's home to be museum

HONG KONG - THE former home of Bruce Lee is now a love motel, renting rooms by the hour. But officials on Monday launched a design competition to turn it into a Hong Kong museum for the kung fu icon.

'I hope I can personally witness and oversee the completion of the Bruce Lee museum in my lifetime,' owner Yu Pang-lin, who is in his 80s, said at a press conference marking the 36th anniversary of Lee's death.
