More birth is not equal to more retards.

It goes back into the local economy in the form of medical fees and doctors consultations. Money well spent.

You mean our President Halimah has donated her one year salary?

"The baby dies anyway but thank you for your support, we will keep the money as it gives us great comfort."

Crowdfunding via sob stories on social media.... it's the new normal.

Sinkies have more money than common sense anyway, this was obvious long before the advent of social media. Remember Huang Na? NKF? Renci?

The m&ds should approach big corporates like SIA, DBS...ask them for donation but must tattoo their corporate logos on the child's arms and legs. Good idea ??

$3 million.

Let’s assume this child is able to work for a total of 45 years (from 20 to 65). And assuming the monthly salary is $5,000. 45 years will only equal to an amount of $2.7 million!
