MM retire, shd he give up the Istana too?

[jiakhongleow]

Istana, means palace in Malay, is for presidential uses and not an old folk home for retiring Papies politicans. Is the PM going to reposses the Istana from the outgoing cabinate minister and restore the Istana solely for presidential functions use?

 

[Maximilian Chua-Heng]

So there'll be no more Tales from the Istana? Sad... :(

 

[rusty]

MP LKY in Istana?

He is no longer a Minister.

His salary should be the same as Low Thia Khiang.

White House is only 18 acres and that is enough to protect US President. Istana is close to 100 acres. I think they should just build a new Istana on Sentosa Island - set aside 5 acres of land and build in a main building for reception and living quarters with separate guest house for dignitaries if they want to stay.

Then open up the Istana to the public, buildings turn in restaurants, museum and the grounds can be something like NYC Central Park with jogging trials,, etc etc. Gov buy land from Meridien Hotel and put in a multi storey carpark. Open it for Singaporeans.

For this to happen, 1st vote 2/3 of PAP out, then we'll be able to realize our dreams. he...he...

 

[Amakusa Kourin]

No need la, just buy him a nice home in JB to retire. MM Lee can lead the way to retire in JB.

Chia Tai Poh was once the Rajah of Pulau Belakang MATI!

 

[lianbeng]

lianbeng suggests, "convert istana into a holiday resort or museum right in the middle of orchard road."

 

[Balancemind]

What are you shouting about? Remember when a non government officer but only as a spouse of old mentor was entitled to go to mandai in a gun carriage don't that tell you something of how our leadership operates. They will say old man is visting son in Istana and that will be a valid reason for him to be there. You dare to face the kangaroo on the leegality of that statement? I just wish you luck.

he has bought condos and huge salaries why should we worry if he has a place to stay. he can pay cash on the spot.

you are right he should get only MP salary or better he forgo the salary as he has squeeze much from the pockets of gahmen

 

[hairylee]

It might be a problem having to drag him out of Istana.

 

[halsey02]

He will be drag out in a gun carriage....not an issue!

 

[Amakusa Kourin]

You stupid or what? He can jump out of his grave, gun carriage cannot keep him la.

 

[streetsmart73]

1. yes, bro.
2. jb is a cheaper choice.
3. less taxing on the taxpayers' monies mah!

 

[glockman]

Heard this before, probably an urban legend. There's an underground tunnel that connects the Istana to the old house at Oxley.

 

[Amakusa Kourin]

1. yes, bro.

4. LKY can settle his old score with Mahatir and we need not worry about Malaysia cutting watter supply.

 

[bullfrog]

Lol. After all those remarks he had made in the past abt JB being dangerous and full of crime, murder, kidnapping, robberies, snatch theft, I am sure the Johorians will only be obliged to show him and welcome him as the way he had said they are. Then Ah Loong will have to cry for the Army to rescue his papa.

Mahatir will be there to personally give him a 'warm welcome'.

With that, our next President should be Chia Tai Poh.
LKY can go to the Istana to pay respect to Pres Chia. Chia might
even extend invitation to Lee to stay a few nights there as his guest.
