THE skies opened up on Tuesday just as the coffin bearing the late pioneer Cabinet minister Othman Wok was about to make its final journey, as Singapore bade farewell to one of its founding fathers.
Hundreds of people turned up at the Sultan Mosque in Kampong Glam as a private hearse carrying Mr Othman's casket arrived for the funeral prayer.
