light touch, but hey, we will prosecute you

Vivian Balakrishnan has once again, echoed his homophobic colleague Real Admiral Lui, and sounded a warning to anonymous and annoying parasites like this blogger here.
Dr Balakrishnan said: “Anonymity in cyberspace is an illusion.
Instantly, this strikes fear into every parasite’s or lesser mortal’s heart. Be careful, he says. Be very very careful.
Dear Dr Bala, I [...]

what will YOU defend?

die also must look alive, ugly also must look good

Its now official. Singapore is not ranked number 1 when it comes to Singapore’s own investments. The ever-reliable non-bacterial and highly venerable ST has mysteriously lost this piece of news.
Jan. 29 (Bloomberg) — Singapore, whose state-owned funds invested about $24 billion in UBS AG, Citigroup Inc. and Merrill Lynch & Co. in the past 14 [...]
