US and N Korea in Spore 12 Jun 2018
-
I believe there are many other places that our kids can go to other than Orchard area during the June hols. It is also only for that few days, not the whole of June.

Now that the historic summit between President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is back on track on June 12, residents of Singapore — the Southeast Asian city-state hosting the talks — shared their views and expectations.
Here’s a sample:
___
Jennifer Yuen, office manager:
“I hope it will materialize as both leaders are so unpredictable. It will be a big hassle and costly in terms of manpower, time and inconvenience, but the summit will put Singapore on the world map again for its capability and efficiency. The meeting will be a good start and small step to achieving world peace. Both leaders need to be open-minded and receptive, and have faith that the other will not renege on what is agreed.”

Joys Tan, designer:
“I do not have any interest in the meeting. It could very well end as an embellishment in a long line of past historic events where treaties were drawn, but never meant much in the long run. There is so much hype around the meeting that it has become a public display of fake politeness and geniality. Both parties need to subsequently keep communicating, without this dramatic display in order for this meeting to be meaningful.”

Who will foot the bill of this Summit?
-
I certainly don’t want us to hv to foot their bill & clean up their mess.
Whatever it is, whether the final score is 50%/50% or they pay by per room, use of conference rooms, limousine, security personnel, food by each party - whatever they use - must be paid in full. -
Hosting means invited parties no need to pay?

KJU is really a PITA.
According to the publication, the North Korean leader is allegedly demanding to stay at The Fullerton Hotel, a grand, five-star heritage building by the Singapore River, where a single night in the presidential suite could chalk up a bill of more than S$8,000 (US$6,000). Despite being worth an estimated US$7 billion plus (likely far more than Trump’s still-unrevealed true net worth), it seems North Korea is crying poor.

why did Singapore agree to host these 2 clowns? we do not need anymore international exposure.
hosting that overweight clown and paying for his entourage of bodyguards is really ridiculous. -
To have geopolitical usefulness is very important to Singapore’s long term survival.
