Mr. Lee Kuan Yew said this in 2011.
"I see no reason why I should impress people by having a big car or changing my suits every now and again to keep up with the latest styles.
"I've got many new suits that are absolutely in good condition because I seldom wear them.
"In fact, the older I get, the less willing I am to spend time putting on a suit and tie.
"I just have a blouson or a buttoned-up Chinese jacket, and it saves a lot of trouble.
"I have had them for many years and they are very comfortable."

AK responds:
We cannot be right all the time.
Everyone makes mistakes, especially when we are mentally infirm in our old age.
Instead, I would focus on Mr. Lee's philosophy and his wisdom.
I wouldn't discredit a person who was largely responsible for a successful Singapore just because some people thought he got his will wrong.
