When it comes to 'sympathy', no one can beat this guy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-xQa44CQDI And not to be outdone, another joker from the same Party: Lim Swee Say CRIED at farewell dinner after Lim Boon Heng Posted by singaporege2011 on April 24, 2011 In a desperate attempt to claw...

Mr Khaw: Oh, really!!! Huge uproar over PM Lee's comments By Faris Mokhtar | SingaporeScene – Wed, Apr 6, 2011 Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong's open admission that PAP wards are favoured for HDB upgrading exercises has touched a raw nerve among netizens. His admission came as a reply to a...

Two separate issues here. To us common folks, CPF is nothing but just a long term FD, albeit one with the banker (SIN Government) changing the terms and conditions arbitrarily and unilaterally. Ask those who turned 55 in the early '90s. They got every cent back, and they could even treat CPF...

Imagine you put $150,000 in bank, say a 5 years Fixed Deposit. Once the tenure matures and you go to bank to withdraw the principal and interest. You are then told by the bank officer you can't do that since you can't 'handle' the money. The bank then forced you to purchase their annuity with...

LKY set a precedence with Ryan Goh's PR revocation. The latter didn't commit a crime, just unite some factions within the airline against low pay. Anton similarly didn't commit a crime, but sort of unite almost the entire Singapore against the rich. Guess in PAP's logic, the rich ang mo won't...

Then it's better to keep quiet than to seemingly take side of Anton. I find it strange. In any western country, if such thing happens, you won't have anyone coming to your defense, much less the politicians.

Back in 2004 Ryan Goh's PR was revoked for inciting revolt within a company. Anton Casey, for inciting hatred against the rich in a country that is already having one of the widest rich-poor gap in the world, still gets to keep his SIN PR. It took his employer, of all, at least a decency to...

LHL should commission an independent investigation into the AIM saga. Punish those responsible, call in CPIB if necessary. Show real leadership here and put the house in order. Then, slowly and steadily, dismantle all the cronyism and inbreeding within the government. The world is getting...

For me the orchestra counts. Conductor can be anyone. Berlin Phil will always be Berlin whether it's conducted by Karajan or LHL. For the Beethoven's 9th I recommended there were a few major Euro orchestras involved, so it sounded 'grand', if you are into this sort of thing. For the more...

Try this if you want the 'grand' version: http://www.naxos.com/catalogue/item.asp?item_code=2072038 ODE TO FREEDOM - BEETHOVEN, L. van: Symphony No. 9, "Choral" Talking of symphonies, no one mentioned Mahler? Try his 1st last movement, or his 8th last movement.

Both are prostitutes, so strike a chord.

Or more like, in the face of cheaper FT potentially standing by to take over their job, they have become more zealous to show loyalty, hence protecting their precious rice bowl.

Yes, and remind TCH's constituents in 2016 how low this "anchor MP" has stooped during this by election. Seriously, what is TCH thinking. Come on, what age are we in now. You still talk about suing? If he say this before 26 May Desmond would surely lose some %, all thanks to TCH and his big...

If Hougang loses, whole Singapore will be screwed more badly, including Hougang residents.
