Teach Less Learn More

Education
PM Lee Hsien Loong said that "We should cut down on the syllabus...We've got to teach less so that our children can learn more. " It's one of the most insightful paradox on education. Well said. I couldn't agree more.

6 metres from Freedom
Four Africans were just within 6m of from the Canary Islands. Freedom was within sight from their boat. Thinking the water was shallow enough to wade through, they jumped into the water... and drowned. To the world, it's just another statistics. But I feel sad for them.

To leave their loved ones at home, and smuggled themselves with only a shirt on their back to another foreign land, in search of some hope for a better life, thousands of African illegals tried to enter Europe each year. I could have been one of them. So I am very grateful for each day, for a roof over my head, for the family to come home to, for my 3 meals a day. Couldn't ask for more.
