The bodies of a mother and her young son were found floating near the shores of Bedok Reservoir early Thursday morning.

They are believed to be that of 32-year-old Tan Sze Sze and her three-year-old son Jerald Chin, who have been missing since Tuesday.

They were last seen at Clementi Central, where Madam Tan's mother works.

It is understood that when the Public Utilities Board officers found the two, Madam Tan had been hugging her son. Both were dressed in red tops, the same clothes they were wearing when they went missing.

Taking the stress out of school

MOE will review practices to give kids 'holistic, balanced' education: Education Minister Heng

SINGAPORE - In a move to steer schools towards an education system that is more student-centric, the Ministry of Education (MOE) will move away from a results-oriented culture, to practices that are more "holistic and balanced", said Minister for Education Heng Swee Keat.

At the MOE Work Plan Seminar this morning, Mr Heng said that since he became Education Minister, many parents and educators have asked him to place a greater emphasis on character-building among the children. Some were also concerned about whether children and teachers can cope with the "excessive competition and stress" of the education system here, he said.

To achieve a more student-centric culture, a review will be conducted to determine which practices are too achievements-driven, as well as those which generate too much administrative work, bogging down the teachers. These practices will be refined or done away with entirely, where possible.

Among the areas under review is the Masterplan of Awards scheme, said Mr Heng. The MOE is looking at reviewing the awards or removing some entirely, as well as making it unnecessary for schools to apply for awards, which adds to the amount of paperwork on a teacher's plate.

The Ministry will also work with schools to create a new Character and Citizenship Education framework.

Mr Heng also urged schools to re-examine policies on giving homework to students, and to define the amount of homework that best suits different ages.

How did your water tasted this morning? Bitter Huh?

Hor LEE Ber!

God bless TSS and JC.

:(:(

fuck...so its due to marital problems? Rather die than lose custody of the child? Why like that?

How i view this Case... One died of Natural Causes(Sucide), The other died from being a victim of Murder.

The mom is an idiot...such an innocent life...haizz...feeling so sad nw..esp when i have kids of my own...

最毒妇人心， hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. She would rather commit suicide with her young son all decked in red to make her husband feeling guilty for the rest of his life than to solve problems.

sad! most sinkies mentality is bounded by four walls. just take some time and go out see the world or talk to someone who had, will certainly ease her mind. what's done already done, hope they rest in peace though.

yes so? the best social welfare state, In the nation with the poorest politican in the world have suicide too. So, they going to blame their govt too?? Opposition is blaming everything under the sun to the govt, they are making themselves less creditable.

勿洛蓄水池惨案，夫搞外遇婚姻破裂，与夫争儿抚养权，少妇带儿穿红衣，双双坠池惨死。

这起命案发生在今早6时许，地点是勿洛蓄水池路第716座组屋对面的蓄水池。

死者是陈诗诗（32岁，家庭主妇）与儿子陈乐辉（译音，3岁），两人被发现时，双双浮在距离岸外不远处的水中。

根据警方日前的文告，死者家属于过去星期二（20日），曾到金文泰中警署，申报两人失踪。岂料，相隔2天，两人竟出事，被发现惨死在蓄水池里。

据《新明日报》了解，死者生前正与丈夫闹离婚，并为了争夺抚养权的问题，闹得很不愉快，两人也发生严重冲突。

一般相信，由于无法释怀，死者带着儿子离家出走，两人穿上红衣，坠入蓄水池后，溺毙惨死，十分诡异。

警方受询时证实，警方在今早6时50时接到通知，案件被列为非自然死亡案处理，目前仍在调查当中。完整报道，请翻阅22.09.2011《新明日报》。
