The man can't dress himself, he needs the help of his TV producer. which world leader has their own TV producer? He is so rich but he can't hire a style consultant? What a cheap fuck. His TV producer must be the biggest practical joker in singapore. i like him. Must buy him a tiger if i ever find out who he is. What a clown, advising Gay Loong to wear pink all these years. Bwahaaaa.

Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong wears pink on the advice of his TV producer, takes photographs with his iPhone and a compact camera, likes home-cooked food best and his favourite Malay dishes are asam pedas and ondeh-ondeh.

Like many Singaporeans, he struggles to balance work and leisure, but gets in a workout every morning, has started learning Pilates and sleeps six to seven hours a night.

In an alternate world, he would have liked to be a teacher or lecturer.

These were some personal nuggets he shared in a live 45-minute Facebook chat yesterday from the social media giant's office in Cecil Street.

He said in a Facebook post in the evening: "I had a hard time keeping up with all the questions coming in, but it was an interesting and successful engagement."

Mr Lee had invited questions at 11.30am, and started answering them 15 minutes later.

By noon, more than 500 questions had flooded in. By the time the session ended at 12.30pm, there were more than 1,600. He managed to respond to just about 30, including several on policy issues in the news recently, like transport and Central Provident Fund (CPF) savings.

Some 363,500 people saw Mr Lee's chat, Facebook said yesterday.

There are 3.4 million active Facebook users in Singapore.
