OPINION: When Special Needs Children Became Mere Pawns For Opportunistic Politicians

My Singapore News, 29 Sep 2014
These three words have now been used in a political battle to prove who is more caring and more like angels. Sad, very very sad that these children have become an issue in a political tussle for attention, become political tool or cannon fodder.
Anyone want to ask why I did not post a single photo of these children and actually refused to mention their condition?

OPINION: Despicable politicians who have no qualms about using special needs children to score cheap political points

Singapore Notes, 29 Sep 2014
Right on cue, the mute button was toggled off. Politicians who stood idly by and played dumb for weeks while a 87 year old pioneer generation member was in grave danger of being robbed and pillaged by a foreign intruder were suddenly jostling to leap into a feeding frenzy.
You know brains have left the building when “Return our CPF” is construed as a phrase to “

SNAPSHOT: Teo Ser Luck more interested in taking selfies than watching a bunch of special need children dancing for him

OPINION: For Yale in Singapore, It’s Deja-vu All Over Again – Jim Sleeper

The Huffington Post, 26 Sep 2014
Singapore wants western tourists, investors, and contractors to enjoy superb seaside dinners and clean, efficient public services and private markets.

PAP Government to call for a snap election?

新加坡執政人民行動黨50年來從來沒有那麼慷慨過。政府從今年初以來不斷釋出的各種優惠、津貼、政策調整等等措施，從反對黨到小老百姓都看出來，這是選票帶來的改變，對執政黨可以反過來說，這是選票帶來的壓力。民間因此有輿論認為，執政黨很可能在近期就閃電舉行大選，讓反對黨措手不及。
近期以來，坊間陸續傳出有學校教師接獲通知去受訓，為選舉工作做準備。有人預料最快選舉可能在十一二月就舉行。本屆政府任期在2016年結束，但執政黨不可能拖到那時候，因為各方面變數太多。 Full story
