    Foreign doctor with license revoked in U.S. now employed by NUH in Singapore

    Problem is this guy puts profits in front of ethics. For him to be struck off records must have been a huge deal. He could have sued to have his license reinstated if he had standing. Had hoped that Singapore would have higher standards.

    Cloning ancient Chinese towns to boost tourism

    No different from what Disney did (or for that matter Las Vegas and the gondolas). Capture the architecture, some culture but with better plumbing, sewerage, running water, seismic safety and merchandise for sale. As long as they help preserve the original no harm in building a "clone".
