From the live feed,

saw a female guard marching to each of the 4 guards and say something to them and then march away. I wonder what did she say....

Think its a way to control the crowd ba


You put queue 3 hours will spur more people to join lol

to me, it is okie for more singaporean coming forward to pay respect. if this kind of logistic also cannot handle, how to fight a real war?

i am currently in the line. weather is FINE to me. it is quite cloudy today so sun glaring on n off. quite windy as well.

1:15pm strolled into padang field. ppl were passing out umbrellas n giving out tissues, drinks (mineral water, yeos, liang teh, breadtalk giving breads n cakes)
1:20 being placed in blocks of tentages and sat down to relax in holding area. reminded constantly not to cluster together.
1:50 exit padang holding area to esplanade
2:00 where the real queue begins, all e way snaking to opposite MS/mandarin(float).
along the way plenty of ppl giving out drinks, food, umbrellas and ponchos.
2:15 small holding point at float stand. sheltered.
2:16 released to cont walking.
2:35 currently behind esplanade mall.

super appreciate the nsf and volunteers involved. come here to see lky but u are instead being loved by the welfare given.

Guys go with the mindset to pay your respect. If the late Mr LKY is only worth only a certain hrs of your time then don't go. Go CC or stay home.

Prepare for 6-8hrs. I was prepared for 10 or what ever it takes.

The army boys are running the event now & they are much more efficient. At the end am sure u will be happy u came.

Enjoy the journey there.

Plus one..

Ugly scene: few Sinkies cut queue.

I actually won't blame those who cut queue.
Their objective is still the same - to pay last respect to LKY - they are not there to get some cheapskate freebies.
So, it is understandable.
Coz not everybody can afford to wait 7-8 hours, many people need to prepare to rush to work later, or other important appointments (such as medical appointment, catch a flight, etc), but they are still eager and sincere enough and want to pay their genuine respect to LKY.

Even celebrity need to queue up, their time not worth as much?

 

[casper86]

so how does the queue works now?

Celebrities have a schedule, there are periods where they don't have to work and got all the time in the world.

I'm not supporting queue cutting because we always complain foreigners cut queue, but sometimes when you really gotta go, you gotta go.

As i said, they are not there to get any freebies or discounted promotions.

Everyone's intention including those who cut que (due to their time constraint) is still to pay their respect to LKY.

Let us not be too harsh on them.
