He Lives A Spartan Lifestyle
Mr Lee Kuan Yew worked to give Singaporeans a good life but cared little about the luxuries in his own life.
This is a ham dangong, or salted egg jars in Cantonese. People used it
to store water and then ladled water from it to wash themselves.
Do you know that right up to 2003 before Mrs Lee Kuan Yew's first
stroke, Mr Lee Kuan Yew and his family at Oxley Road were still using
the ham dangong? A water heater was installed in the bathroom only after
Mrs Lee had a stroke so that she could have a warm shower.
