Predictably my last post ruffled a few feathers leading some to protest how dare I say such things! Sadly, ignorance comes in many different flavours, so now I'd like to address some of them separately. One may believe presenting historical facts should be enough but ethnonationalist biases, ego
Some people are clearly unaware of whom they owe their prosperous existence to - and the death of Queen Elizabeth II has proved to be an opportunity for dimwits from WUS (and the entire left wing community) to peddle more BS on social media about the queen herself and the
Judging by the reactions to the latest BTO launches I think there is a sufficient group of complainers in Singapore who need to read/hear the below.There aren't many things one could reasonably complain about in Singapore and somewhere near the top of the list of the
September has only just begun and so much misinformation to deal with already.

Recent discussions on the future of 377A have touched on the underlying goal of the local rainbow community - recognition and equality of gay marriage. And while the response of the government was cautious and calibrated at appeasing the conservative majority, emphasizing that any change to 377A (i.e. its
I find it quite funny when activists try to suggest Singapore either is or should be ashamed of executing criminals, and that they somehow shed a light and draw global attention to this allegedly inhumane practice. In reality, people like Kirsten Han do a remarkably valuable job of reminding every
I lifted the headline at the bottom from Coconuts which posted a sad report about the impending demise of this "great man". Meanwhile, Kirsten Han penned a long story of how Nazeri was really a victim himself and he deserved state care not hanging. The reality is far
