Recently, the Workers' Party of Singapore released their Manifesto 2006.This sparked a furious upset in the ruling party, which used words like "time-bombs"and "poison" to describe it.The Workers' Party Manifesto 2006 is a lengthy 52-page booklet, so to have thecontents simply summarised into "4 time-bombs" is a tad unfair for the Workers' Party.Fret not. The Manifesto is available online. It

But I don’t know how my hubby can be such a BOBO Shooter even when we do with condoms on.I had took pills before as contraceptives but he wasn’t happy with it. To him, that would mean I can have sex with other men but he will never know. What logic is that??? So fine.. I gave up the

The ONLY thing I have never regretted in my life (despite my marital problems) is to have 4 kids. Being a mother was something that I have never considered as part of my ‘future plan’ when I was 19. In fact, I had never like kids. I don’t mingle around with my cousin’s kids. I never stopped to gawk at kids, no matter how cute they appear to be. But all these changed after I was pregnant with my

Jason's father was a womanizer. His mother slogged as a butcher to bring up Jason and his two elder brothers. Jason hates his father to the core, though I lately wonder if he still does. I heard that when he was young, he saw his father abused his mother after getting drunk. Thus, he was always quite a filial son to his mother.
