A very interesting read. Ngiam Tong Dow is a respected ex-permanent secretary and head of civil service. In fact, he was once considered amongst the inner circle of establishment elites and more powerful and influential than many ministers. For him to come out and criticise the government is...

So the PAP Chairman has gone onto TV and made comments to the effect that it would be disastrous for the WP to form the Government because 'Ministers would resign, run away and go missing', obviously trying to use the YSL incident to discredit WP further. I thought Desmond Choo said that he...

It's day 2 of the campaign tomorrow (Friday) and still no rallies announced. Why are the candidates trying to lie low? Png Eng Huat trying to avoid the lime light? Desmond Choo scared not enough people attend? Where are the legendary WP rallies?

Hi Bros This is an earnest appeal for your help. Please do not flame or insult or make sarcastic remarks, I beg you. I am seriously desperate and need help. - Around 1 month ago, I rented my condo to a FT from HK (but he has an American passport). He claimed that he is employed 'in the...

Zuckerberg spotted in China http://entrepid.sg/zuckerberg-in-china-will-facebook-china-be-born-soon/ Was he on 'vacation' or there to talk about possible entry of Facebook? That would spell the end for the Chinese copycats like RenRen??

Let's face it.. sometimes we get confused.. some of them are really too well-disguised already. Some good methods on how to identify a lady boy a.k.a. ah gua a.k.a. katoey stated here http://www.sojourns.com.sg/blog/asia/thailand-how-to-spot-a-ladyboy/ Question: would you accept a lady...

What is likely to happen: - One PAP candidate - One WP candidate - YSL to stand as independent (or under a new party, perhaps NSP) - One SDP candidate Expect the PAP candidate to win with around 30% of the votes, with a tiny winning margin (could be in the double digits) mirroring the...

There has been a lot of chatter on Singapore companies being biased towards FTs and discriminating against Singaporeans. In some MSM interviews, employers have been coming out and saying things like: - Singaporeans are lazy - Singaporeans are spoilt and have a sense of entitlement...

Looks like there are some China companies who are also looking to recruit Singapore FTs. The flow of FT influx works both ways. In Singapore, bosses feel that they need more China FTs due to them being 'cheaper, better, faster'. In China, apparently they think that their own locals cannot...

After losing 2-3 at home to the bottom team in the league (Blackburn), they went on to lose 0-3 to Newcastle? Losing to Blackburn was horrible on many levels. First, they actually fought back from 0-2 down to equalise. When you do that, normally the opponent will be mentally crushed and the...

When I made the decision to join politics in 2006, pay was not a key factor. Loss of privacy, public scrutiny on myself and my family and loss of personal time were. The disruption to my career was also an important consideration. I had some ground to believe that my family would not suffer a...

Now that Lui Tuck Yew is only earning $1.1m, he has no dignity to talk to Saw Phaik Hwa who earns $1.8m!! She does not need to listen to him now because she earns 70% more than him!!!

Now Singaporeans are being blamed for 'over-reacting' to the MRT fiasco.. this is ridiculous crap from the 147th press once again. The way they try to shape public opinion is totally shameless. The MRT fiasco was unacceptable and people need to be taken into account. In other countries, Saw...

I was talking to a taxi driver the other day and he said he can earn $4000 a month or even more. His secret is that he never picks and chooses his passengers, nor does he play hide-and-seek at critical time periods to wait for surcharges to kick in. He just picks up whoever he sees on the street...

Since 2003-04, they have been in the top 2 every single season. They have always been the main title contenders along with Man U. Now they are struggling so badly that it would be considered a big success if they can even finish 4th. It's the same players (more or less) who won all those...
