French Polynesian president in floral shirt stands out in PM Wong's group photo: 'That's one cool man'While all the other men in the photo wore a dark suit jacket, French Polynesian president Moetai Brotherson stood in front in a bright blue floral shirt, a dark blue traditional lavalava wrap and sandals next to Singapore Prime Minister Lawrence Wong.

PM Wong shared the group photo on social media on May 22 and wrote:"Earlier this week, Singapore hosted the Pacific ministers in Singapore for the third Singapore-Pacific High-Level Visit. I was glad to meet them yesterday at the Istana — my first official event as PM with external visitors.""Who is the absolute unit in the floral shirt?" asked someone on LinkedIn.

Someone replied:"Looks the most comfortable. President of French Polynesia. I understand he views the neck tie as a colonial yoke choking his independence aspirations."Deputy PM Lawrence Wong hangs out with Oscar winner, Philippine president at S'pore Grand Prix
