No Words To Describe The Incompetence! We have hit the 1000 mark. It is a sad day not only because of the awful scale of the disease which has hit our tiny red dot, 3400 km from Wuhan, but also because all this was totally unnecessary and could well have been prevented. More than 2 months into the crisis, we do not have a flattening curve but rather a spike...

Jolovan Whan to spend a week in prison I had a send off dinner last night and a breakfast this morning. Thanks to all for your support!

Singaporeans must do their part to prevent leaks in fight... While I understand that the number of imported Covid-19 cases will rise as Singapore receives more returnees, I am concerned that the number of local Covid-19 infections seems to be rising.

PAP Took Its Eye off the Ball, Don't Do It Again By Calling... While the government stayed focused during the initial stages of the outbreak and managed to bring the spread under control, it became complacent and took its eye off the ball.
