Maid dies saving baby gir
After reading this article about the maid who saved a baby girl and sacrificed her life, I was gratified. My deepest sympathies to the family of the Indonesian maid who died while protecting her employer's daughter while crossing the road.
It is really disturbing to read such news once in a while. I salute her for her bravery! I admire her courage and bravery to save the child from the hands of death. If I were her, I might not have the bravery to save that person.
If you see your loved ones who are in the same situation as this accident, would you be willing to die for him/her? Or just watch them fall into the dark hands of death? This my friend, you have to choose......

English classes for staffs
To work in Singapore, if you can't even "speak proper English or understand English ", then they shouldn't be allow to come in, into our shores to work in the very first place! Some people think that putting on an American accent is speaking "good", "proper", or "standard" English.
Language proficiency requires constant practice. No matter how well-trained you are - and if I could speak German, then I will fall from whatever proficiency I have achieved. And how do you practice when no one else you're constantly in contact with speaks it? That is the same as having 1 or 2 lessons or even 200 lessons of English. Just impose the minimum requirement of a C5 pass in English to qualify for service position.

Mother Tongue weighting in PSLE could be cut
After reading this article, I was wondering if the weighting of mother tongue is reduced, they might as well remove Chinese from the express/special stream then.
This way, bright Chinese students of Maths and Science who are not good in mother tongue will never be at a disadvantage. They will get all the freedom to grow up speaking with a marvelous American accent, showing ignorance. How I wish I was born later..
