Hi Mr Tan,
I deliberately left the house when PM Lee made his National Day Rally speech live because I don't want to end up smashing my TV set. His usual condescending smile/laughter alone to is enough to enrage me.
Reading the transcript later, I'm glad I did what I did. As expected, PM Lee pretends to "understand" the plight of ordinary S'poreans. The fact that he said "if you can't board a train, the next train is just minutes away" betrays his pretentions. It is not just overcrowded trains/buses S'poreans have to endure. The entire infrastructure is bursting at the seam. A significant proportion of primary schools, junior college and university places have been taken up by foreigners/PRs/new citizens. S'poreans place a lot of importance on having a good education, yet the PAP govt doesn't think it necessary to ensure that S'poreans should get absolute priority in this area. MOE's position on P1 registration is baffling. On the one hand it claims all primary schools are equally equiped (thus implying they are of the same standards) and that there are sufficient places for all. Yet it refuses to make PRs queue behind S'poreans for P1 registration.
It is now crowded everywhere. There is shortage of hospital beds, long waiting times at polyclinics, crowded hawker centres, long queues at govt agencies. The list goes on and on. Obviously, our mutli-millionaire ministers are not impacted by these at all. They and their families get priority for everything in this country. They can afford to eat at exclusive restaurants, get first-class medical treatment at private clinics/hospitals, their homes are guarded by burly Gurkha guards, they get special police protection, etc.

Medical Transcription Online Education
A Course Synopsis
Your medical transcription home education will begin with an overview of what kinds of employment opportunities are available in this field and what the duties, the responsibilities, and the ethical conduct of a medical transcriber are. You will also learn about the kind of software, hardware and other supplies you will need for medical transcribing.
American English
A lot of medical transcription work comes from the United States; so if necessary, the first section of your medical transcription online education will be to understand how American medical doctors and personnel speak. You will also need to demonstrate a command of correct English punctuation and grammar. This first part of your medical transcription education also goes along with learning the theory of medical transcription rules. These two elements (Correct American English and Medical Transcription Rules) will form the basis of your medical transcription home education.

Einstein Quiz - enhanced
Einstein created a logic quiz with 5 houses. It was quite challenging to solve.
I have now created a quiz that uses 7 houses. It has more combination and clues.
Can you solve it?

National Day Rally - some views
NATIONAL DAY RALLY
1.
Moving, inclusive speech
SIX years ago, after Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong's maiden National Day Rally speech,
I was moved to write a letter to the Forum page ('Govt critic won over by speech'; Aug 25, 2004).
Now, six years later, after listening to his marathon speech
delivered with more panache, pride and a touch of humour,
I am moved once again to offer my gut-feel response.

Good work on education front
I AM a third-generation Singaporean. On Sunday, our family of four sat down together
and heard the entire speech by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong.
He spoke with passion about improving on Singapore's already 'very good' education system
and offering more choices.

Recognition for NSmen
MS IVY TAN:
I applaud the Government's move to give more concrete recognition to our national servicemen
through a $9,000 National Service Recognition Award.
Fine tribute
MR RONALD LEE:
PM Lee agreed with those who lamented that the younger generation knew so little
about former deputy prime minister Goh Keng Swee.
It was a fitting gesture to name the Singapore Armed Forces' (SAF) premier training institute
and a new education complex after Dr Goh.
YOG connection
MR K.H.K. RANGAN:
I was heartened to note the steps taken by the Government
to nurture students with different abilities
by tapping their varied potential through different avenues and bringing out their best.
Missing element
MADAM MONICA CHIA:
I am encouraged by PM Lee's message that we are slowly gearing towards recognising
and developing the different talents that all of us have.
