When the coffin was brought from Sri Temasek en-route to Parliament House, along the road as the carriage passed by, there were quite a number of people clapping and more claps followed....clap clap clap...clap clap clap clap clap...
Why were they clapping? Clapping is a sign of celebration and of success and a tribute to one who receives the claps.
Come this Sunday, the last journey is 15.4km long. Along the roads, we can be certain as the carriage passes by, there will be more clapping.
Clapping is the new funeral gesture to send someone off. For those who wail and cry, go to North Korea or UK and wail and cry for Kim and Diana there.
Here in uniquely Singapore, people clap as a funeral tribute.
Watch for the claps this Sunday..
