Vivian Balakrishnan apologized to Wang for "not wearing tie"

I may not necessarily like Vivian, but fair is fair.
Another way of looking is, the dress code already known and confirmed beforehand by their respective underlings. The Chinese FM may then have chosen to wear a formal suit replete with tie, knowing full well he would score huge domestic political mileage by doing what he did![Big Grin Big Grin](https://sgtalk.net/images/smilies/biggrin.png)
Vivian and his entourage could not have said, Hey! That was not the dress code information that we received and given to understand when we receive you. But instead he chose the next most expedient move, which was to apologise

Hence, he may have purposely not put on a tie so as to made it possible for Wang Yi to do likewise. Wang Yi happy to have the opportunaty to do so in this hot weather. . Immediately took it off. I think so.

Usually all these are arranged before hand.
More like bochap, same same, like the president during ndp, n also tch during last ge walk about.
Is the clown prince losing control of his men n women?
I also think it wasn’t fair to pin the blame on his secretary.
Can U blame his secretary for his rental of his ridout bungalow which caused much public unhappiness, a parliamentary enquiry n a cpib investigation.

As usual, after a while ppl stop talking about Ridout.
But the houses are still there and the same ppl are still staying there.
Sinkie really got short term memory..

1. I have served the nation in a combat unit for 2.5 + 10 years. I had fulfilled my duty as a citizen, but has the country do it's part for me?
2. I don't know where the threat of CCP is, but I know the threat of CECA is already at my doorsteps
3. I had been called a CCP, JHK, Pinoy, but they never called me a CECA..
