While diplomats reflected yesterday on the philanthropic business leader the late Lascelles Chin became throughout his 86 years of life, his daughter, Lisa Watts, spoke instead of how her down-to-earth father took her to a club for the very first time.
That is a side of Chin that up to his death, many never knew. Unlike the average parent, he was ‘cool’ enough to allow his teenage daughter at the time to unwind and let her hair down on the dance floor.
