[gingerlyn]

Dear brothers and sisters

where is the sympathy for Straits Times and Wan Bao? Do they have to shame a poor man for taking 70 times of test to get his taxi driver license? what is the purpose of shaming people in the media?

imagine if you are the wife and children of Mr Shi Zhao Lin.
what would you feel?

do you have to shame this innocent man?

SINGAPORE - A 61-year-old man has finally fulfilled his dream of becoming a taxi driver - after passing a required test on his 80th attempt. The man, identified as Mr Shi Zhao Lin by evening daily Lianhe Wanbao, finally scored a pass on April 9 after failing the test 79 times. He scored 43 points, exceeding the minimum passing score of 40.

They are telling you to please avoid this loser's taxi.

He may get into a major accident and kill you.

I read that he failed because of his weakness in English Language, not driving skills.
