Lee Kuan Yew studied in an English school, so his English was fluent. But the majority back in the 1960s in Singapore were not English-educated. So his then-friend Lim Chin Siong spoke Hokkien for him. Why Chinese did not get many people's attention too? Most people used Hokkien or Malay for everyday conversation.
