Today's StraitsTimes features on the third page in a half-page article complete with huge photo of the late President Wee's dog. Oh wow. I'm so concerned to how the canine (named He Ping)is doing. If the news is ranked by the most important on the front page and subsequent pages the less important ones, that would put the dog story above "Tussle over brain-damaged woman", , "Can 24-hr marts thrive in Singapore", "Fed up with flag days", "Tremors felt, but no injuries", "Casino mongul: Too much control" etc.. Its my opinion that "He Ping pines for master Wee Kim Wee" does not constitute to big news, let alone news at all... Ah well, not like there are other English full newspapers to choose from.


On another note, a quote from an article on A*Star scholars on page 11.
Ms Chng, 23, who has received an A*Star scholarship, is waiting to attend Harvard Medical School this year.

She said:" It's quite obvious that female scholars are more aggressive, Type-A, go-getting types, while the males are soft-spoken and tend to be easily bullied by females."

To her, Singapore males are fine until they go into the military for national service.

"Once they enter NS, they complain a lot. I didn't know guys could talk about the most minute things."


Oh i'm sure she made a lot of male fiends with that statement. Lots of powerful A*Star scholar friends. Who held, are holding and will hold high positions in the public and private sector. Good luck to her.
