Lee Kuan Yew's condition 'largely unchanged': PMO
Former Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew's condition remains "largely unchanged" since the last update on Mar 6, 2015, the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) said in a brief statement on Friday.
In the update on Mar 6, PMO also said Mr Lee's condition was unchanged from the previous update, in which it said that Mr Lee's condition had "improved slightly", although he remained sedated and was still on mechanical ventilation in the hospital's intensive care unit. He was also continuing with his antibiotics, the statement had said then.
It has been over a month since the country's founding prime minister, who served for 31 years until 1990, was first admitted to SGH for severe pneumonia.
