The "arab spring" has long since withered and ISIS is widely regarded as defeated. I believe the current events in Iran will fizzle out. For Saudi Arabia, I have no idea what the endgame will be. That is the one that scares me.

Here's a tough one for you - Are the current events in the Middle East ( Saudi Arabia, Iran etc) a consequence of Donald Trump or is it somehow just a coincidence that we got him when the Middle East is about to explode?

Luke 20 45 And in the hearing of all the people he said to his disciples, 46 “Beware of the scribes, who like to walk around in long robes, and love greetings in the marketplaces and the best seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at feasts, 47 who devour widows' houses and for a...

The nature of the industry is that it is very easy to set up a 1 or 2 man show and call yourself a training provider. The situation on the ground is very similar to what was happening at Singapore Sports Council a couple of years back.

The rot goes much much deeper. They need to get CPIB to do a check on the Institute of Adult Learning.

As things stand, Saudi Arabia does not have the ability to declare war on Iran. As long as Iran does not outright invade Saudi Arabia, the US is not inclined to launch an invasion of Iran. With these constraints, the provision of such missile technology to proxy players is a valid optimum...

The US seems to be claiming the right to sell arms as it deems fit to the Saudi led coalition. Yet when Iran provides arms to the Houthis, it is seen as somehow a major violation? Also the intent of providing the missiles is not known. To date, no major civilian target in Saudi Arabia has...

This is not really a correct description of Christian beliefs with regard to Israel and Jerusalem. As a Christian, you cannot hasten Armageddon. Neither can you do anything stop it or slow it down as often portrayed in the movies. The events in Revelation happen in accordance to God's will. God...

It is actually not all difficult to know what God really wants. Jesus summed it up nicely in Mathew 22: 36 - 40. Mathew 22 36 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” 37 And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all...

Throughout history, those who worship God have often not wanted what God wants.

Won't it be amazing if God uses Donald Trump to fulfill his millennia old promise to Abraham? Genesis 12: 6 Abram passed through the land to the place at Shechem, to the oak of Moreh. At that time the Canaanites were in the land. 7 Then the Lord appeared to Abram and said, “To your...

The recent weakening of the S$ to MYR 3.03 has been attributed by some money changers to the new regulations.

It is not fair to say that it is because Singaporeans are daft or stupid. The PAP achieved the 70% popular vote largely through the FT policy. There are currently 500,000 to 800,000 new citizen voters in Singapore. This is a solid vote bank that the PAP can count on no matter what happens...

It is more like the other way around. When you are young, rich and powerful, most people see very little need for God. It is only when they are old and dying that people suddenly find a need for God. They then go off in a desperate search for him.You will be surprised at the number of people...

He was trying maranatha (Lord Come !) meditation to try and find some peace. Till now, it is not certain if he managed to come to faith before he passed. This was unlike Ng Teng Fong who came to faith on his deathbed. To Christians, that story is a testament of the power of God to help a rich...

In this life, they will probably enjoy all of the privileges of great wealth and power. Their judgement will come after their death when Singapore slowly becomes like Liverpool. The once proud Singapore people will have to leave Singapore to find work in other countries. They will learn what it...

When LKY was PM, it was easy to fire chiefs because the chiefs were not family and friends.

History is about to repeat itself. MBS seems set to walk in the footsteps of Mohammad Reza Shah.

In the heyday of the British Empire, it was once a thriving city like Singapore. Then the world changed and it was passed over. Given the way things are going, perhaps this will be what Singapore will look like in SG 100.

2 You desire and do not have, so you murder. You covet and cannot obtain, so you fight and quarrel. You do not have, because you do not ask. 3 You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions. ~ James 4: 2 to 3
