Utterly no respect for the elderly and 有眼不识泰山.

That uncle is not a small fly in Kong Chow Wui Koon, hence he is given a chance to stand in front the queue. That Lion Dance troup belongs to the association, so uncle has to wear the red shirt. Greet and shake hand with elderly is considered "Good Luck", since he was representing the 国术沙龙醒狮团. This Gan 做咩都无运行。Uncle is nice guy, he won't get offended by this small issue.

Kong Chow Wui Koon lion dance and its 国术 is quite popular and solid, and truly represent the Canton culture in Singapore.

Is he in the picture?

Correct me if I am wrong, looks like the one sitting in the front row extreme right (second from right to left from our perspective) dressed in blue with red tie?

good spot
1st time i didn't see it

If it is correct that he is in the committee picture, then I may be wrong in my conjecture that the Lao Uncle was trying to PLP for biz PR for his lion troupe. Also didn't know the lion troupe belongs to the Wui Koon.

She can:
- Lie low for one month so that the saga will die off itself or
- Go to the canto association herself and snub the uncle again.

People just want to smear her name because she is a Minister and a former BG.
Singaporeans can be so low class and unkind these days!

What are you talking about? How is this smearing her when it was clear as day that she just did not want to shake the old man's hand. Another Seet Ai Mee.

What’s new?

Tony Tan’a limp handshake with fishmonger.
They’re not used to dealing with people too far down the hierarchy

Me too......😔

Given the background and context of the situation, the uncle was gracious enough to do it. And yet........

Or take a leaf from the page of the donkey, go to the Wui Koon and meet the elders and take PR pictures. Then post big big in Media, scare die no one knows like that.
