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 沙龙狮团. 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.
Where is the Cantonese speaking minister who talk until got dragon got tiger?
Here is the time for him to speak up!!

I think this is worse than the Seet Ai Mee incident. At least Seet didn't reject shaking hands with the fishmonger, just that she not discreet enough afterwards, quickly go wash hands and get spotted

Wash hands still understandable cos some ppl cannot stand the possible fishy smell or maybe think abt the other ppl who may handshake later.

But this lady looks to show disdain and outright disrespectful to the ppl she was elected to serve

Usually if you are VIP or guest, u know going meeting host or various people who receiving u, you will ask the person (host) for their surname as basic courtesy

use common sense also know the people who are receiving u should be some big shot in the association, where got small fry stand near lobby

she think she LHL or Sun Yan Zi, people desperate to shake her hand meh

It is foolish to think people who can't accept NO for an answer understands what the commoners are going through. Times changed, society does too. LKY shakes the hand of the dirty commoners not for votes, it's the understanding of those hands got dirty building the nation. Now...... peasants should just F.O.

A video that recently made its rounds on the internet showed Minister of State Gan Siow Huang appearing to not shake the hand of a man dressed in red after he helped close her car door, though she did later shake his hand.


She did not shake his hands, it was the man who shake hers.
dont play with words PAP

Yup. He reached out to hold her limp hand still hanging by her side. Very clear in the video.

Always preferred the Cantonese type of lion dance, like Chow Gar type.

more martial art based and fiercer.

I watched the video many times, it was very obvious she still did not want to shake his hand even on the second time :s13:

He was the one that initiated the second time. So cham sia. I believe he is someone of importance if not they wouldn’t let him stand there suka suka shake.
