Kim Jong-un arrives in Singapore for historic summit with Donald Trump

After its strange flight path from Pyongyang, North Korean leader’s Boeing 747 has been seen on the runway at Changi Airport

It is all systems go in Singapore as the country readies itself for the arrival of United States President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un ahead of their highly anticipated summit in the Lion City on Tuesday.

The Boeing 747 believed to be carrying Kim Jong-un has landed in Singapore, sources on the ground said.

Air China flight CA61 touched down at Changi Airport shortly before 2.40pm.

Kim takes no chances on flight to Singapore

The aircraft most probably carrying Kim Jong-un to Singapore for his summit with Donald Trump took a mostly inland route while flying over China, according to a flight tracking service.

“North Korea’s utmost concern is Kim’s route, as there have always been big concerns about assassination attempts,” according to Lee Yun-keol, a former bodyguard for North Korea’s ruling family.

Data from Swedish website Flightradar24 showed Kim’s flight initially passed over four Chinese provinces – Hebei, Henan, Hubei and Hunan – and stayed well clear of coastal areas.

The media are doing everything they can to turn this into a negative.

As of this moment, there is an airplane at Changi Airport with no call-sign. Would that be the Air Force One?

Sorry. I forgot that Air Force One would be landing at an air base, not Changi Airport.

“Misaeng”.....

I’m rewatching Misaeng on Netflix to compare how Koreans are like us and different from us. They are presented as being very formal in their relationships at the office.

Trump doesn’t give s rat’s rear end what the media and the Deep State think.

He doesn’t live in fear of them and he wasn’t elected to serve them.

Insofar as they’re outraged, he’s OK with it.

Air Force One has just touched down. It's nighttime over there (about 8:30pm on Sunday evening).

Massive crowds waiting.

They aren't wasting any time getting Trump off the plane.

Singapore is exactly 12 hours ahead of ET, so by my bedtime tonight, it will already be mid-morning on Monday over there.

No chance of frostbite this week in Singapore. Daily highs will be around 90 degrees and lows will be around 80 degrees. Moderate to high humidities. Chance of showers each day.
