TVD’s Picks: Cheat Pastors? ZOMG

This cheatgrace blog is uber awesome as it ultimately made a difference. This dude went all the way to expose City Harvest Church pastor Kong Hee as a charlatan, ok at the very least a uncool guy who plagiarises. Ooopsy. BTW Kong Hee has a doctorate in theology heh. Now all sorts of tongues and [...]

TVD’s Picks: S$ Depreciation?

Woah! Something is coming, probably bad if you are planning to go the US or Europe for holidays in June. Time to rush and buy $US right after you read these picks? Hopefully the depreciation of the S$ (but against which currency besides $US huh huh huh?) won’t start a race to the bottom among [...]

TVD’s Picks: Earth Hour

Aite. Turn off your damn lights this Saturday! Earth Hour is here again! Do your bit however cheesy, corny, crappy. OK there is much hype in the process of making Green cool but WTF, tree-hugging attitudes are what we lack. Don’t miss the forest for the trees when you diss Earth Hour and its irony. [...]

TVD’s Picks: GIC is between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea

Citigroup is near a deal with the US govt. The latter, or specifically US taxpayers, would own up to 40% of Citigroup. What would happen to the preferred shares? Exporiation? Also, Citigroup shares are now about US$2.6, a far cry from one year ago when GIC bought Citigroup shares at about US$20+ and pumped US$6.88 [...]

TVD’s Picks: Budget 2009

Happy New Year! Did we get a real hong bao, the one we expected or rather hoped for? The budget is a bold one for many reasons. Breaking the piggy bank and digging into the reserves is one. The focus on companies (and workers indirectly) rather than voters per se is a politically risky move [...]

TVD’s Picks: The Ethics of Organ Trading Meme

Lau Ah Pek is pro-regulated organ trading as the world is not made up of absolutes, and there is no “yes” or “no”, it is always “maybe under certain conditions”. From euthanasia to abortion, the answer is always shrouded in hues of grey. In the end, will Singapore take the big step to green light [...]

TVD’s Picks: Pedra Branca

History in the making and maps will now be redrawn. That strategic rock, an issue over sovereignty and the implications on military and commercial traffic to the South China Sea since 1979, is resolved now thanks to the ICJ decision. Twelve to four in favour of Singapore. Middle Rocks however, goes to Malaysia in a [...]

TVD’s Picks: Yaw’s Decision to Vote MIW over SDP – Woah

Judas! Jackass! John the Baptist! WP dude Yaw Shin Leong had the balls to say that he voted for the MIW. Gotta him the Brass Balls and Best Political Drama (Short Story) Awards. Heh whether he likes it or not, he is a strong nominee for the Should Have Shut the Fuck Up Award too. [...]

TVD’s Picks – Taking on NTUC

NTUC, trade union cum GLC (as a Singapore Angle pal described it), is in the spotlight! But like an ostrich with its head buried in its ass (or is it in the ground?) seems nothing mentioned of the growing blizzard in the NTUC forum. Tsk tsk. Anyway, Tan Kin Lian, formerly the big kahuna in [...]
