Partial Retraction & Thanks to TR: counter-'Gatecrash Water Festival' initiative

UPDATE Thanks to 'the Exilian'(via the 'contact form' above) for directing my attention to Temasek Review's publishing of the Support Water Festival initiative the day after it was dispatched by a2ed.com. See HERE As previous communication between a2ed and TOC/TR had always resulted in an email dispatched by either, and this was not forthcoming in this instance, it was assumed that it had been ignored. Hence, thanks to TR for publicising this article - albeit to abjectly poor response. But we are not about to fall for the usual strategy of whitewashing a main-fare fascist stance, as evidenced by their approach time and again, via the supply of side-dish egalitarianism. This acknowledged oversight on the part of a2ed does not, however, invalidate all previous points. That has to be proven, and not claimed via said oversight. As of today, the 'Support Water Festival' initiative has 3 members - 2 of whom are old personal (chinese) friends of ed. a2ed *******...

When ‘values and manners’ are gullible, not laudable

A five-year-old girl sent a handwritten apology to a department store after accidentally breaking a Christmas tree bauble - with two pound coins attached to pay for the damage. Faith wrote to John Lewis in Cambridge after visiting on Saturday. The letter said: "I'm sorry I broke a Christmas bauble... it cost two pounds. Here is the money for it. Sorry again". - bbc (comments on BBC facebook ) Tim DeBever: Shows that some parents still believe in teaching their children common values and manners. As others have said it is a rarity these days and I for one am glad that her honesty is being rewarded. Well done Faith. You're a credit to your parents Joannna Bennet: I can't actually believe that people can find a negative angle to this. It's sad that some people have lost the ability to accept and believe nice things can happen, I actually feel sorry for them as their lives must be very gloomy. I'm not bothered about the specifics, it's a nice stor...

It's Chinglish, not Singlish.

Ever wonder how 'singlish' sounds so much like the way a chinese child speaks - like that child on the left? Not like a malay child, not like an indian child. The next time you speak 'singlish', just ask yourself how different it is from that little boy on the left. That indicates that 'singlish' is not actually 'singlish', but 'chinglish'. And this further indicates that the formation of this so-called colloquial and unofficial ‘national’ language indicates that non-chinese differences were not considered in its formation, which, incidentally, parallels the chinese-determined criteria of what alright and not alright in all other arenas. No wonder that the msn.com site for singapore is called ‘xin.msn.com’. If it is representative of anything, it is only of post-80s chinese self-absorption. Same goes for the ‘wit‘ which is typical of the wit in Chinese media and conversations. Childish, and has no resemblance with the higher level...
