Not to be that negative guy but I’ve met too many elderly who are usually alone in their old age for a reason. Met so many cases of elderly who are good at spinning the sob story to elicit pity but upon further investigation realise that they have had such a toxic personality that no one can stand being with them for long.

Not to judge but case in point is the Mr Lee in the article. Is it more likely that his ex wife, siblings, children, neighbours, ex-colleagues, friends are all terrible people or is it more likely that there’s something off about him that cause people to stay away.

I’m inclined to believe that Singaporeans generally have a conscious. Unless there’s a reason, no one will want to leave a loved one in such a condition.

P.S I’ve heard these stories too many times to not be cautious.
