Hey you left out the juicy bits!

At a press conference on Wednesday, Mr Michael said he had an improper relationship with a staff member of the People's Association.
The staff member, who was working in the Pasir Ris Punggol GRC, has also resigned.
Mr Palmer said: "I have resigned to avoid further embarrassment. I have to take full responsibility for the grave mistake."

I love Manchester United, but I am not in favour of Nani. Is that possible?

Yes.

As much as I have no objection to most of the body, there are some inconsistent branches or roots that we need to pay attention to.

This will open your eyes against blind faith.

When I was in secondary school, and was given the then choice "Electrtical and Electronics" stream, my mother was so proud of the government. I was on cloud-nine. Two years later, just as I finished Sec 4, they declared that option AN ERROR. They called it A LEARNING PROCESS.

Many moons down the road, when my son was in child care and child care do not include hanyi pinyin lessons and that it is needed in Primary one, I spend $$$$ sending my son to private hanyi pinyin tuitions.

The year my son went to Pri 1, they declared hanyi pinyin wrong concept. They called it a A LEARNING PROCESS.


We have a good government.... they support learning.
