A rose by any other name would smell as sweet!

Remember the bicycle ride? One that did with PM Lee and the other that did not with Opposition Workers Party?

Believe it or not, Senior Minister of State for Law and Home Affairs Associate Professor Ho Peng Kee made this clear in Parliament on Tuesday.

In the words of a Hokien speaking 83-year-old great-grandma, it's another case of "chui kong lumpar song!"

"Pai thun!" Looks like the million dollars salary ain't that easy to earn after all. To come up with such an incredulous explanation takes much from the soul and integrity! Sleepless nights too!

Then again, money by any other name would smell as sweet too!

With Selamat Jalan and this legal/factual booboo, the guys working in Home Affairs definitely deserve our sympathies.

Give them a break!

How could he said what he did with a straight painful-looking face. I think our learned Senior Minister of State for Law and Home Affairs knows nobody is going to believe his crap, even those sitting with him in Parliament.

I was hoping Sylvia Lim would stand up and shout 'Don't bullshit'. But of course, she could not do that. You could tell that she was bemused with the warp reasoning. That tells the whole story.

on another story - a gold medal would be just as sweet - but not to straits times.
Our China import silver was given front page coverage by ST, but our hard earned local Gold paralympics was given a small top corner in ST - with Lehman fiasco covering the whole full page.
Sad that local talent was relegated to the back pages - when I thought the paralympic honour was so much more honourable than our imported silver!

The audacious statement by puki Ho Peng Kee is expected and the bloody PAP can be smug for the time being. Just remember political fortunes can change. No quarter will be given.

Some of us in the media socialist have been working on a proposal for AIMS. Check this out. And do give your comments directly to AIMS at their site.

Then, there also appears to be very encouraging signals coming from others who usually only talk to their own kind and refuse to talk to anyone else.

From what I see. I too may begin parachuting diplomats into the real world to also offer their expertize and know how. See here at ending part.

So it seems AIMS may be doing a great job after all.
