the new singapore parliament hse was planned to have a glass cone top, as recommended by President Ong, to add some modern element to the government building
it was taken off, due to some reasons?
I think it wld be a great idea for the cone to stay

Yes, Ong & Ong. He was more of an urban planner than architect actually.
