I'm really sick and tired of listening to all the whining about Keppel's bribery in Brazil so, as ever, I'm here to tell you what the truth actually is. Ready? Keppel did nothing wrong. In fact, not only that, but those Keppel's
What I particularly like about people in the opposition crowd is that they clearly lack the ability to logically connect things. They're just driven by blind hate and so they thoughtlessly jump on everything they can spin as negative about the local authorities, often without realizing that their
I'm often wondering what drives people who are rabidly populist. Is it some sort of thirst for power or merely unbelievable, self-assured ignorance? Regardless of the motivations PSPs "Telegrampa", Leong Mun Wai appears to be at it again, desperately trying to attack the most successful public
This is why I hate "journalists". Some years ago people at the Economist had a decent idea to create a tool for comparing living costs for EXPATS in different, major cities of the world, to allow companies estimate complete relocation and employment expenses. Of course, with time they
I have to say I find the disciplinary inquiry into Christopher de Souza's, PAP MP and Deputy Speaker of the Parliament, alleged professional misconduct a most welcome and valuable development. Here's why: 1. It should finally convince all of the conspiracy theorists that nobody in Singapore

Sometimes I really hate politics. But even when that happens it may still be very entertaining. It seems that 377A has posed some serious challenges for the Workers Party and how they handled it backfired in the most hilarious way. They appear to be trying to reconcile their earlier positions,
After my posts about the AHTC some angry folks kept coming here and waving their fists - "what about AIM case with PAP!?". And while it is rather annoying to have to keep explaining things that were already explained once I have to say it's also
So far, the only alternatives to the impending GST hike in Singapore are based on taking money from somewhere else. But what if there was one that didn't require any new taxes or draining the reserves? In fact, what I'm about to point to is one
Why aren't specific HDB subsidy and development cost figures released? I think PAP sometimes has a problem in communications - though in this case it might be the fault of the parliamentary formula of asking questions and providing answers on the spot. I agree that the response given
My blood really boiled yesterday. I have to say that I used to think that Workers' Party was a group of maybe not very competent but at least fairly decent people, infected perhaps by a few too many left-wing ideas (hey, nobody is perfect, right?). But I am increasingly
