So I found a spanking new free Singapore flag in my mail box. I always thought one needs to purchase it. But I guess they decided to give it away since it is SG50. And elections being near.
Took it out of the plastic bag, it is huge. I have never displayed the flag, not because of a lack of patriotism but more so the many rules that govern it's usage. I really don't need the hassle. So I folded it back nicely, and returned it to the plastic bag.
