Parliament House

Mr Lee Kuan Yew body lies at the Parliament House from 25th March to 28th March for the public to pay their last respect.  Funeral is on 29th March.

Went to pay last respect with my mum at the Parliament House.


When we got out from the City Hall MRT Station, we saw the queue that starts to form even before the traffic light.


Queue at the Padang

There's a priority queue for the elderly (60 and above), pregnant, with special needs.  As my mum is above 60 years old, my mum gets to queue at the priority queue.  The queue took us 1 hours.


Bus that is provided to ferry people there


Q in front of me


Q that is behind me


Water is provided


Moveable toilet


School students also went to pay their last respect to Mr Lee


Took picture while waiting in the queue


Security check before entering Parliament House


Nobody is allowed to bring flowers into the building, those who bring flowers have to leave it outside.


Saw a big board there

    The people love this great man who did so much for his nation, they wouldn't time queuing up to pay their last respect.
