The draping of the State Flag over a casket is the highest State honour accorded to a leader. When the Singapore flag covers the casket, it is placed so that the crescent and stars lie over the head and close to the heart. ‪

President Tony Tan and ESM Goh Chok Tong, along with 90 staff from the President's Office, Prime Minister's Office, and 24 Ceremonial Guards, waited at Istana Plaza to offer respects to Mr Lee Kuan Yew.
