It was a bygone era that is unknown to most Singaporeans because of the way Singapore history books are written. The following is a good summary of the period. The original PAP team was forged in this crucible. Can you imagine what Singapore would be like if instead of them, we had the current...

And what would a building be without knowing what went on inside ... http://www.fcasingapore.com/index.php?action=displayHistory The old saying that "the shoemaker's children are the worst shod" seems an appropriate way to describe the FCA archives. One can only assume that the organisation...

It had a long and interesting history. Found this nice pic of the restaurant Also more background on the history of the hotel. https://roots.sg/Roots/learn/collections/listing/1213379 The site of the Cockpit Hotel at Penang Road was previously occupied by the Hotel de L’Europe (not to be...

Another story from the old Cockpit hotel. http://www.hungzai.com/cockpit-hotel-2/ I have always wanted to meet these usual beings face to face. Honestly I am scared but I just love to explore and be different. My family is the religious sort but not me. My mum said that I am the devil among my...

For those not familiar with the bible, the passage was written to describe the leaders of the Northern Kingdom of Israel who were busy enjoying life with their wealth and privilege. It was written just before the kingdom was completely destroyed by the Assyrians.

Isaiah 56 9:12 is a good description of what Singapore is currently like under the PAP, Civil Service and Grassroots Activists. 9 All you beasts of the field, come to devour— all you beasts in the forest. 10 His watchmen are blind; they are all without knowledge; they are all...

SQ has been steadily losing ground among business travelers. Emirates and Qatar seem to be increasingly the preferred choice.

Both NUS and NTU have a new man at the top. Should be interesting to see what NUS/NTU look like 5 years from now.

Re: Sinkie Keling Minister Tells Keling Kias: CECA Is Wrong Politics And Wrong Econom Best description for what passes as economic policy making for quite a while. The past year has however seen a subtle change; for the first time there is talk that perhaps the decline cannot be reversed.

It is a speech that many rich Singaporean uncles can relate to ... esp the part about the yacht.

Don't think a pardon can be effected BEFORE the investigation is completed. The investigation will probably take forever with everything leaking out. Firing Muller will bring us to uncharted territory. We will be treated to witness history in the making in the same way Watergate made history.

God generally does not hold such groups in very high regard. This is what the bible has to say. The passage was written by James, half brother of Jesus. If you want to name drop, Lim Siong Guan might seem to be a bit of a nobody compared to James. James 2 1 My brothers, show no partiality as...

Man cannot see this but God sees this all too clearly. Your service in church is essentially an offering to him. He will judge whether it is acceptable or not in the same way he judged the offerings of Cain and Abel. If you read through the bible, God has never chosen special elite groups to...

It is not possible for you to concurrently be a closed elite group and true followers of Christ. If you want to be a true follower, you have to check whatever wealth and social status you have achieved in the secular world at the door when you step into church every Sunday. You have to avoid...

Given how many are worshipers of money, having the PAP as their ruler seems a rather appropriate punishment.

The following is a sad description of how many Singaporeans live their lives. Psalm 10 2 In arrogance the wicked hotly pursue the poor; let them be caught in the schemes that they have devised. 3 For the wicked boasts of the desires of his soul, and the one greedy for gain curses and...

Perhaps they are being used as the instruments to punish Singaporeans for their sins.

Of all the people raised by the LKY, TCH hurt LKY the most. He did this by leading LHL down the path of electoral political manipulation. He is the architect and current custodian of new citizen vote bank. During the recent Parliamentary debate over Oxley, he was the leading voice for...

What would you suggest? Be an ethnic Malay but talk and walk like a Chinese?
