A life of misery: Thoon Deong taking a look at Kim Sung’s filariasis-infected leg outside the elderly man’s rented house in Jalan Gopeng. – ZHAFARAN NASIB / The Star
GEORGE TOWN: Lim Kim Sung may be struggling with life, making ends meet while suffering from filariasis (elephantiasis) on his left leg, but the octogenarian has a heart of gold - sharing the little he has to help the less fortunate.
His kind deeds include handing over some of his meagre savings to a charity organisation for the visually impaired and buying food for underprivileged orphans.
