blueheeler SG It was reported in http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/singaporelocalnews/view/277460/1/.html that: 97 military officers have been appointed as Honorary Aides-De-Camp to the Singapore President, S. R. Nathan. What ?!??!?!!! NINETY-SEVEN???!??!?!?! Why does the President of Singapore need 97 uniformed-assistants??? I thought that the only situation when you find 97 military officers in the Presidents official residence is when a coup detat has just happened Hahahaaaaaa Please, someone who knows what's happening, can you tell me why Pres. Nathan needs SO MANY assistants?

I-like-flings(m) SG nabei.. 97 only u complain.. last time those kings got 3000 wife leh... u think he still the prata man ar? ppl the president now hor...
countdracula SG all these aides are free labour....it's their 'honour' to walk with the presidente.....
allentyb SG because he is the president of singapore, and he can demand as many helpers as he wants to, or maybe they assign those helpers to him
boredtulan SG 97 adcs supporting 1 sg president = 97 ceremonial posts supporting 1 ceremonial post if that's not profligacy I don't know what is
vito_corleone SG 97 bullet shields, so even if an assasin attacks with an mg they can whisk him away before all these fellas die
bila_prem SG 97 uniformed helpers to guard him? What a joke...I think those 97 help to clean istana,cut grass,gardening and other miscellaneos chores so that he don't need to pay levy for foreign workers to do the job.
Medicated Oil SG The prata man need man power to count his 3 million dollars salary. He need man power to buy his prata. He need man power to protect his family. He need man power to walk his dog.
will4 SG The no of uniformed helpers appointed as Aide de campe is also benefiting their career n in fact if u passed by any SAF officers, there is a badge to show they have been appointed as Aide de camp but on tax payer's money.
