Chitchat The istana

[sbfuncle]

Do they replace furniture's each time a new president take over ?
Mattress sure change, what about the bed frames? Do they donate the old ones ? To who ? The domestic workers there sure always can get free furniture's.

Does the president relatives need to apply for special visit pass ?
Can they stay overnight in the guest rooms ?

 

[sbfuncle]

What kind of workers are there ? How many roughly in total ?
Eg butlers, room service attendants, cleaners, etc

 

[sbfuncle]

The immediate family members - do they only leave the house by chauffeur only or they also walk by themselves out of the gate?
Is there a curfew time to return home ? Can walk or only chauffeur service allowed ?

Be sure to use the public toilet near Sri Temasek within the Istana compound. Very vintage, probably set up during the colonial era. The standing urinal and wash basins were made by Johnson Fireclay.

Food and makans - does the chef need to ask them for the next days menu ?

Most Singaporeans will never have a chance to be president.
PAP ensured that only their elites could be eligible.
Sinkies are left to choose between such elites

I have been to the istana only once in my life and not during open house. I had the honour to be president wee's guest for once during his change of guards event.
I didn't know there are public toilets there.

Are the workers there all having a permanent job ? I.e do they serve the new president or each time new president take office will hire new workers?
How do they hire those workers?
Is it through a recruitment agency?

Don't forget Pinky is staying there too. He treats the president like his staff. You should be asking how Pinky was being served instead. May be the president gave him weekly foot massage, to thank him for the obscene annual salary.

I think is a official residence for pm but so far none of them ever stay there as home.
If pm also stay in same house as president then is weird.

Halimah is not a elite.

 

[syed putra]

The bedroom master bathroom and office will be renovated according to new presidents taste.
Other shared area will remain.

 

[LexLuthor]

For me, the most important thing is at night got knocking noises or not ?

 

[syed putra]

And no pork allowed to be served at the istana. This is not the forbidden City.

 

[ODACHEK]

Halimah's dildo will be removed from Istana right? Three new candidates are males now.
