Current queue status at Parliament

[Amuroraysg]

how are the queue now? will it reach suntec?

Why you all suan those who bring children? My 9yo nephew has been asking my sister to take him there. It's not right to say that only able-bodied young people should be able to pay their respects. We are not going to war or IT show. The parents want to bring their children, so be it.

There are various locations around Singapore to pay your tribute, it doesn't have to be at Parliament House. Queuing up for 4 hrs is not a joke for young children.

definitely, hope these parents would have done their calculations, and made the necessary preparations.

It is not about the paying of respect. It is about the long hours of queuing required. Those who have gone and queued are just sharing what it is like out there, daytime and night time.

We are talking abt those still sitting in prams, worse still are those with babies..

Ah gong see liao also won't rip.. Cos these parents lost their rational mind liao... The q is very hot and stuffy, no need to put the children through all these..

9yo quite big liao, also dun qualify for priority q...

lol.. I have to agree with this. I drank 5 bottles while in queue and never had the urge to pee.

No idea, but no matter if they are NSF or regulars, their work is commendable in my opinion.

churchills funeral very similar. exactly 50 years ago.

 

[bb_kjy]

ytd i also saw a lot of elderly in the priority queue with their walking sticks and some on wheelchair. among them were ppl with prams and stuff.

of course, its educational to bring ur children when they are at least 4 years ago and above. children below that age... they probably won't remember a thing.

it really made me wonder if those people are just taking advantage of the situation.

Pls, why do you bring up FT ...... i was queueing with all sinkies around me....

1) a sinkie girl behind me was talking to her friend on the phone... and said something like "She told me that go in also cannot see anything....it's really not worth it loh...." She left the queue...

2) Another sinkie unker in front of me took selfie with the queue every 15 mins....

3) Groups of sinkie aunties poses for group photos in the parliament house. Like they are going for cc outing.

4) Sinkie mediacorp celebrity and bloggers posed for photos after paying tribute......why? to show you they are part of the historic event?

This is the cold hard truth - people, especially young ones, treat this whole event like queuing up to see a once in a life time exhibition..... totally no respect to Ah Gong.

Feel very ashame to know there are such insenstive locals. How can be taking selfies at funerals be allowed

Their behavior is disgusting.
