To be a President of Singapore, to be the end of all the blunt jokes show that he have lost the respect to be the Head of State.
Just another observation from the National Day Parade.
As one of soldiers was in the process of replying the President's question, the President was seen turning his head away and walking away without actually paying attention to the response at all.
The soldier must be pretty hurt by this inconsiderate action. -
I believe the answer for your question lies in the 21 gun salutes. The 21 gun salutes is spread out across the during the parade inspection. The first shot of the 21 gun salutes start after the parade commander ask the president for permission to inspect the parade and upon given the permission, the first shot will be fired as the president take the first step. The subsequent shots will be spread out across as the president conduct the inspection.Originally posted by huiz:when the president stops to talk to one of the officers, the 2 guys in front(holding the sword) gotta stop ahead & wait for the president to finish & rejoin them. but how do they noe the president is rite behind them liao wifout turning back? got some code or signals one?
So, if the president stops to ask question, the gun salutes will pause, it is a signal for the 2 officers in front to slow down. There is a lot of coordination for that. -
Sorry, double post.

Why me?"Originally posted by Medicated Oil:To be a President of Singapore, to be the end of all the blunt jokes show that he have lost the respect to be the Head of State.

"I will pretend to speak to you, and you pretend to reply to me, to show the audience, ok?"Originally posted by Honeybunz:Every year, at the National Day Parade, the President will walk one round. When he walks past the officers, he will talk to one of them and the officer will answer something. Then he will move on, walk a few steps and talk to another officer.
I always wonder what they actually say.
What do they usually say ah? -
