[rant alert]Do you want to know why? It’s because even our newscasters and the the very broadcast stations use bad English. I’m not talking Phua Chu Kang which is funny and humorous and should be allowed to use Singlish. No. It’s the damnable Channel News Asia programs which are supposed to be all serious and ...

The article from the Economist is at the bottom.As I guessed when I first read the news, the biggest problem with our rising rice prices is that it’s more a distribution error than a problem with the rice yields. It’s more about politics than it is about agriculture. Also a rise in prices is expected, ...

Funniest DHL Ad I’ve seen. Better than the stuff we get here in Singapore. I doubt they’ll ever show this in Singapore though. Because there’s a guy on guy scene. But it is hilarious. Watch. I command it.

There’s been quite a bit said already. The current news is that Streetdirectory.com will be coming back.Some people have said that closing down Streetdirectory.com was wrong of SLA. After all the map was free use; the maps were public domain. It’s a huge blow to open source and the development of the Singaporean internet industry. ...

I remember when I was studying in the US and Fox News would always say they are giving fair and balanced news in a “no spin zone.” Of course I did not believe for a moment that Fox provides neutral coverage. Every television station has a bias, its just funny how they all like to ...

Leong Sze Hian wrote in theonlinecitizen.com about the problem with HDB.While I agree with somethings he said, some other points he made seem to elude me somewhat.Mr Leong makes a point about how HDB should not be renting out flats to foreigners and PRs when there is a need for rental flats amongst the needy. ...

It is rather sad indeed that Joshua Benjamin Jeyaretnam passed away on 30 September 2008.The amount of tribute to him is overwhelming. As always some online commentators used the event of a good man’s passing to criticize the ruling party, while others praised his efforts.I bumped into him several times. Outside Centrepoint and City Hall. ...
