AN 82-year-old musician was found to have hoarded rubbish of almost a metre high at his home in Seremban, China Press reported.
Volunteer workers from the Persatuan Kebajikan Sayangi Malaysia (PKSM) found the pile of trash believed to have been accumulated by Yan Nan Xiu over 20 years.
One of the volunteers, Li Tian Sheng, said they often brought food for the elderly man but none of them had ever gone into the house until last week when the latter was injured after falling off his motorcycle.
“I was shocked to find his home filled with rubbish to the point it was so hard to open the front door,” Li said.
