Our dearest People in White Govt has stepped in to intervene on the NKF saga. Well, i think it is the best option. I agree with Mr Khaw. It is time the entire board of NKF should resign. And it is perfectly fine for the govt to appoint a temporary board. If not, i guess public will boycott the organisation completely. More imptly, to stop watever active fund raising activities till the funds have been properly accounted and allocated for.
It is in greatest regret that NKF ended up this way. I mean their 30 over years of reputation all gone to drain. All for the sake of the lack of transparency. Now, ardent supporter of NKF Mrs Goh has decided to step down too. I think the govt intervention will put regular donors including general public mind at ease. We shall see wat is going to happen over the next few days or even years. Anymore show on next April???

Yes, one year since my convocation which happen to fall on the same day with jun's convocation. Felt so different this year cos i came back as alumni while jun convocated. NTU has changed with new buildings completed. Took many photos and walking ard the place remind me of the time when i convocated.
When i passed by my hall, memories kept flowing back, the time spent with edwyn, gavin, dave, zhiyou, surong, xiaowei, catherine, cedric, edwin etc, over late suppers, gossip, walking ard in the middle of nite, sat by staircase, study, movies and bday celebration. I guess not everyone will have this kind of life esp if u dun stay in school. I had an enjoyable hall life. It was fun.
Then went on to esplanade to capture more scenic views. Nice Singapore skyline. Eventually, jun, her bro bernard and i ended our session at Little Balinese Ville. Very interesting place. Thanks to Bernard, if not i would never know this place. Think i am going to intro it to my friends. Maybe my colleagues cos they LOVE to drink. Set in traditional balinese setting, they have little huts, ponds, candle lights, flowers. oh, they also play soothing music that relaz ur mind n body after a hard day work.
Hmm... On par with Secret Garden or slightly better. But the only downside is, it is so out of the way. Not in town but somewhere in Alexandra. But definitely worth the visit!!!
