Dear Friends,
Theory of Everything
In theoretical physics, the Holy Grail has always been the
Theory of everything ( ToE), the single all-encompassing theory that purports
to link together all aspects of the universe.
One of the theories is the aptly
named “string theory” that strings together (duh) everything that (until some future
“Eureka moment”) had eluded everyone about
God, the origin of Life or even the Meaning of Life. Click here.
Epiphany
I had such a moment of epiphany or “A-Ha moment “ this
evening when I was reading something from social media while killing time when
the wife was testing various varnishes for her toe nails at Sephora at Great
World City.
Khaw's Assumptions and Butterfly Lovers
I was, of course reading, about Minister Khaw’s Assumptions (here ) and how he is into seeking religious wisdom and meditation and
how Butterfly lovers (click here) had fooled or lulled even one as intelligent as his team
at MND into awarding “Eternal Pure Land Pte Limited” (EPL) as the winner of the tender to build a “Chinese
temple”- not withstanding the fact that EPL’s forte was funeral homes and
Columbariums . It’s probably just coincidental that EPL is domiciled in
Australia and … oh yes, it’s bid was irresistibly the highest. Click here
My epiphany occurred in the mall corridor outside Sephora ( I
do not have any commercial interests here nor do I varnish my toe nails) when I
read about how the new HK “Gleneagles “ hospital that IHH - the successor of
Parkway Holdings ,had won in a HK tender, had to fulfil certain conditions
including ensuring the hospital remains affordable to Hongkongers by certain
price control mechanisms. Click here:(New Aberdeen hospital to provide affordable services for 2/3 of HKérs)
Here comes the String which ties Singapore to HK and PAP to
Raffles Hotel…
HK is not like Singapore
New HK hospital |
Sale of our Crown Jewel
The string gets longer when those of my vintage remember that Raffles Hotel ( together with the doorman) was once one of Singapore’s most recognizable icon. It was sold to a foreign private equity group aptly named “Colony Capital” and was then kicked around like the football we so loved to watch and this ex-icon is now owned by Qatar. Click here.

Then of course there are the power stations sold to China.
Someone said ( or perhaps it is a song) that Money makes the
world go round…
SCM: What makes the PAP all wound up
Since now we know what the string is made of that ties up
what is important to this PAP government (and what irks me) and since it is epitomized
by the Sengkang Columbarium saga, I shall henceforth call the PAP’s Theory of
Everything, the Sengkang Columbarium Model (SCM).
When you have the time, think of what irks most Singaporeans
about the PAP eg ministers’ not inconsiderable ( ok high) salaries , then SCM
will help you explain why the universe at one degree north of the equator is so
warped. Click here - you won't regret)
Cheer up! It's not definitely the end of the world ( it could be but not definitely).

Me just likes to say that the Sengkang Columbarium Saga is a bkessing in disguise.
The Saga has open up the eyes and minds of many Singaporeans. When string together with the AIM and AHPETC Sagas, the Political Landscape could change. And now that the First Prime Minister is on life support, change is imminent; for the Better or for the Worse is hard to say though.
However, any change could be an opportunity to a better future for the Country and its' People.
