Passing of Mr Lee Kuan Yew

Re: Alternative Location to Mourn The Passing of Lee Kuan Yew

Latest news from the ground:

The PAP grassroots people are planning to being in senior citizens to the various neighbourhood locations to mourn LKY. Buses to ferry them, freebies etc.

Those old folks are not necessarily PAP supporters, but your ordinary old folks who don't mind spending some time in exchange for free stuff.

Brace yourselves.

Re: So nice you all can mourn!

Angmo countries dun show this kind of great historical meaning with significant proportions!

Like that how to mourn in angmo countries??

Ang moh countries don't worship their politicians in this manner. For a comparable environment, refer to North Korea.

Re: Putin sends condolences to the wrong person


Tony Tan is Pinky's uncle or something right?
So send to the family senior in accordance
With Confucian tradition just wait for Laksaboy
To post the family tree to remind everybody

Re: Putin sends condolences to the wrong person

Nothing wrong. He sent official condolences as one head of state to another. His PM should be the one sending official condolences to LHL.

Personal condolences are a different matter.

His PM is not the leader. Different type of system

I have been very busy today. Many residents had contacted my grassroots buddies and myself. They all want to go pay their last respects to Ah Gong. That's how popular PAP is. And history has judged Mr. LKY as a hero, above Lim Bo Seng and Lt. Adnan.

Re: Putin sends condolences to the wrong person

I'm fully aware of that. But the PM in Russia is still head of government, though with more more limited powers. So, the protocol is still for the PM of Russia to officially send condolences to the PM of Singapore.

In the US, however, the head of state is also the head of government.

With aircon bus, chicken rice and memorabilia "goodie" bag, I am sure they can get a few hundred people to show up.

If the grief was genuine and widespread, tens of thousands would have gone to the Istana by themselves.

In the Russia system, its quite useless to be PM. You either be President or be nobody.

Protocol is that the PM does almost noting.

Besides, all other world leaders have expressed condolence to Lee HL or just say to LKY. Why this one target Tony Tan?

Re: Why MP can have wake in Sri Temasek?

Hopefully things won't turn out like the YOG where they made massive preparations and Singaporeans didn't bother to show up.

Re: Alternative Location to Mourn The Passing of Lee Kuan Yew

In my office today, no one cares about LKY's death and no one talks about him at all, it's just another ordinary workday as per usual. The only people harping about him are the 154th media.

I think PAP will be shocked to know that most sinkies are actually cold and uncaring towards LKY and PAP.

Re: Why MP can have wake in Sri Temasek?

The Lees treats sinkapore like their they own it.

Old Fart is just an MP but the Lees can use Istana for their private wake.

Is SQ sending a plane for a milk run to fetch the rest of the Lees home?

Ask the American Ambassador or British High Commissioner. Both of them are saying LKY did it all.

For FTs too, on Open House days.

Praise from their own kind.

Huh? Wasn't it the (Subservient Family) Butler who did it?

If your workplace is the civil service or your boss is some hardcore pro-PAP dunce, it might have been different.
