That i haven't really been posting very much. I've been running around more or less like a headless chicken during Chinese New Year! many people to visit = many opportunities to be had.
I will get down to writing a really long post soon but just wanted to share a short article on Singapore's golden boy Fandi Ahmad and the woes of rejection.
Even the greatest soccer talent in our history has to concede to the penchant for foreigners and end up making a living in JB where his tremendous talent is appreciated. After contributing to Singapore soccer for decades and so many extraordinary achievements, they simply cast him aside in favor of a foreigner who is highly paid but has failed to restore the morale and glory of the Singapore team. Fandi's plight mirrors that of Singapore workers who held the title of number one workforce in the world for decades. The same workforce now has been replaced by a massive influx of foreign workers.
Fandi's problem is compounded by his wife getting sick. Not only sick but she fell through the cracks of our healthcare system for a common but serious ailment, seizure:
"The medical bills are mounting for me and made worse by the fact that her condition is not covered by insurance." - Fandi, Today [Link]
That being said, please please don't wait until it's too late to make sure that you have a fallback plan!
Please alos have regular healthchecks to make sure that you are in tip top shape. and for the ladies:
