No One Knows Everything: Please give PRs a break!
http://earthevent.blogspot.com/2008/09/please-give-prs-break.html
No One Knows Everything. Please give PRs a break! Extracted from The Straits Times 06 Sep 2008. Nearly half my colleagues are also PRs or work permit holders, or "Foreigners" for short. I guess my colleagues and I are "Foreign Workers" because we don't live in a condo and earn a five-digit salary. Those who do are called "Expatriates". So why are we always left out? So why did I became a PR? So Why are we penalised? Now that the childcare subsidy has been doubled, can't PRs get at least half the amount?

No One Knows Everything: 回教为何禁吃猪肉
http://earthevent.blogspot.com/2008/11/blog-post_19.html
No One Knows Everything. 因各大种族混居的缘故，回教徒禁食猪肉的习俗常被误读成族群间的矛盾。在非回教徒华人眼里，猪肉乃是赖以生存的主要食物之一，故对所有牵涉养猪的议题，都秉持捍卫“民族权利”的态度。所以，禁忌顿时变成一种民族身份意识、信仰虔诚的象征意义，格外敏感。 许慎《说文解字》指猪为“豕字象毛足而后有尾形。”猪的象形字为“豕”（拼音：shǐ），“豬”字则演化成的形声字。自甲骨文普及化，先人已创造“豕”字。“豕”是猪的抽象轮廓图，突出其大腹、垂尾、短足的特征。 如按以上描绘推论，中国古代的猪喜欢吃污秽，不排除豢养在厨房旁、厕所边、坑边等地。有些猪舍通风条件差，地面长期积水积尿，猪关在栏中脏、粪尿到处都有，像坐“水牢”，臭气熏天。 所以，世界万物是供人享受的，《可兰经》第五章筵席（Al-Maidah）87-88节说，“信道的人们啊！真主已准许你们享受的佳美食物，你们不要把它当作禁物，你们不要过份。你们当吃真主所供给你...回教是有饮食禁忌的宗教，教徒应吃合法（Halal）食物，并以合法手段（Lawful mea...由于食物都是上苍创造给人类，上苍绝对有权力设禁忌&...

No One Knows Everything. Say farewell to my long time friend - BRAND. Today I went to NTUC Supermarket and wanted to buy the BRAND'S Essence of Chicken with American Ginseng. I was frighten by the sudden selling price hike! The price has been adjusted to S$19.50 ( Original price S$16.50 ). It is sad to know that the price is marking too much up, despite the current fuel price and economy downturn. What are the execuses will be given this time?
