Well, if your child died because the authorities were remiss in their duties, wouldn't you want to seek legal redress? Taking legal action is not cheap in Singapore. There are very, very few lawyers willing to take on a case pro bono, especially if you're suing the government. If you're from a...

This is the biggest crook of 'em all: Sheldon Adelson. He's not just the big boss of MBS, he's also linked to the Russian Jewish mafia that's involved in gambling, prostituion, people-smuggling, money-laundering and narcotics. 上樑不正下樑歪。

3 observations: 1. The government continues to pay lip service to sports at all levels of education — primary to tertiary — where the brightest talent in other countries are spotted and groomed. The inflexible NS liabilities for top athletes are a further spanner in the works. 2. Employers...

The irony is that the Hong Kongers are enjoying more social and political freedoms now than at any other time in their history. They get to elect their legislature, run their own courts and civil service, stage peaceful protests on the streets, and implement social and economic policies. In...

I read the article. Your ability to twist and turn is amazing. In a nutshell, the director was gesturing to Eason and Na Ying to press their buzzer after another judge had pressed his. Apparently the singer was attractively dressed in revealing shorts and the director wanted to increase ratings...

Actually even your life has a 'cost' to it. If you could earn an average of $60K a year (not a lot), you'd make $2.7 mil after 45 years of your working life. But what if you died only within 5 years of starting work, leaving your spouse and kids shortchanged of another $2.4 mil that you'd have...

From Aggressive Overtures to Sexual Assault: Harvey Weinstein’s Accusers Tell Their Stories Multiple women share harrowing accounts of sexual assault and harassment by the film executive. By Ronan Farrow October 10, 2017 In the course of a ten-month investigation, thirteen women interviewed...

Of course term insurance is an expense, not an investment. It's a bet to cover your ass that you have to put because the consequences are drastic, e.g. a family bereft of a sole bread-winner, totalling your and somebody else's cars, your house going up in fire.

What do you expect from an oversexed jowdy? The Jews rule Hollywood, and, like their Semitic brethren – the Arabs – are sexual predators who treat their women with contempt. It's the desert heat. Why do you think the feminist movement was started by Jewish women? That being said, sexual...

Disagree. There's absolutely nothing wrong about a driver sharing a meal with his co-driver.

You're right: insurance is a bet; it is not about returns. But it's a bet that many cannot afford not to place, unless you're financially strong enough to cope with catastrophes (death, catastrophic illness, loss of property). Warren Buffett, for instance, doesn't buy personal insurance. So buy...

How are we going to be a gracious society when on a daily basis infrastructure is failing everywhere and so many are falling through the cracks, struggling to put bread on the table, dying from overwork and lack of access to healthcare, or else told to shut up and put up with the few crumbs...

Correction: 2nd Avenue, at junction with Namly Avenue. Owns 3 properties in the vicinity. Sleeps in different bedroom from his wife.

You're dead on. Old fart was a political harlot. He had no ideals. His political rasion d'être was simply to gain power by whatever means possible and hang on to it at all cost. He colluded with the Japs when they were in power, switched to the Brits when the Japs surrendered, then slept with...

This is Halimah's house, bought some time ago. Staying in Yishun was just a big wayang.

Yes, hand-made skin. The Spring Court popiah was introduced by a Xiamen chef who brought his hometown recipe here about some 15 years ago. Not sure whether he stayed on. When I do popiah party, I always get my popiah skin and turnip from a vendor in Joo Chiat. Never disappoints.

The best popiah I've tasted is the gigantic Xiamen popiah at Spring Court Restaurant (touted as the oldest extant Chinese restaurant in S'pore). Nothing comes close. Not sure if they use the Goi foreskin though. ;)

It is very sad, if comical, that an MP doesn't even know what filibustering is. Balloting for motions is not filibustering. The term is used in the US Senate to refer to delaying tactics whereby one or two senators embark on a very prolonged speech or debate to block a vote on a bill. A senator...

To be fair, it's only in a nepotistic and cronyistic country like Singapore that 'a good family' can be used as a mitigating factor. There's this widely held (completely twisted) assumption that being well-heeled and well-connected (read Lee family, PAP cronies) absolves one from crime, or at...

Don't you know? 'Bayi like to come from behind ...' :p
