Istana grounds to be open for more Singaporeans and on more occasions. Well done Madam President! Majulah Singapura!!!
"I want to see the Istana becoming more accessible to ordinary Singaporeans," said President Halimah Yacob, who plans to open up the grounds off Orchard Road more frequently.
This means coming up with programmes beyond the current five open houses during Chinese New Year, Hari Raya Puasa, Deepavali, Labour Day and National Day.
Her office is studying how to invite more families as well as groups from social services organisations to visit the Istana.
