‘Getting old is never fun’

In a Facebook post on Tuesday, Dr Lim revealed that he had crossed the “threshold” of half a century.

While he disclosed that “getting old is never fun”, he noted that some had told him that he was “remarkably well-preserved” for his age.

However, the Workers’ Party MP appeared to betray a hint of weariness as he added:

Father Time has a way of wearing down on the ageing body.

Dr Lim said it was nice for them to stay back, especially since he does not always have time to catch up with them after MPS on Mondays, as he would often be occupied with residents.
