The fucking front page!!!
Economic turmoil … war … a generation obsessed with lifestyle rather than life … an education system seemingly committed to producing a production line of myopic and arrogant kids … and the front fucking page is about having soap on your hands but no water to wash it off.
I’ve said many times that Singapore is a culture driven by fear – but this is ridiculous – and is a perfect example why I believe they should scrap the National Service and order kids to go backpacking for a year.
