Here is a new layout for the shape quiz. It is easier for the public to practice their skills in forming the challenging shapes from the four pieces. Good for children, adults and seniors. This video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svVY82K0_iA explains how the puzzle can be solved. I am giving the puzzles for the events that I will be attending over the next few weeks.

Independence from political parties
Dear Mr. Tan
I am surprised at the statements from the government and Dr. Tony Tan - which seemed to be targeting you. I have known you to be a person who is pro-Singapore and also, at one time, pro-PAP. Although you are not pro-PAP now, you are also quite fair in your approach. Although you are willing to support the opposition parties, you cannot be considered to be anti-PAP.
There is no need for the PAP should not target you or be afraid that you will be elected. The only reason I can think of their attitude is that they may have something to hide. Perhaps there are big losses in GIC or Temasek that they do not want you to find out. Is this the reason why they do not like you to be elected?
REPLY
I think that the GIC and Temasek have been quite transparent in reporting their losses during the global financial crisis and that the losses would probably have recovered by now I don't think that they are big losses to be hidden away.
I will try to be honest, fair and positive in my approach. I want to be independent and will support any policy (from any political party) that is good for the people of Singapore.

Endorsement by Goh Meng Seng
http://singaporealternatives.blogspot.com/2011/06/elected-presidency-why-tan-kin-lian.html
Having said all these, Kin Lian is definitely not a Saint. He will have some shortcomings just like anybody else. But most importantly, in my opinion, after all the contacts I have made with him, I feel that he has the necessary qualities to be a good and effective President in performing the role of safeguarding our reserves. Someone who is fair minded but yet has the moral courage to stand up against all odds to ask the necessary and difficult questions. Up to the point of risking his own personal friendship with his ex-PAP colleagues, in safeguarding the interests of the People and the Nation.
Thus, my personal support of Mr. Tan Kin Lian in this Presidential Election.
