Dr Tan Cheng Bock - I understand

Singapore's 7th President is Mr Tony Tan

Dr Tan Cheng Bock lost by a mere 0.34% (7,269 votes)!!

And there were 37,826 rejected votes.

A new star is born!

Pursuant to Section 49, Sub Section 70, Paragraph A of the Parliamentary Act, I hereby declare.......

I heard this 27 times. I admit I was feeling a little irritated by this because I wanted to know the results at the soonest! Then, I couldn't understand why is Potong Pasir SMC taking the longest to count? It was already 3AM when Mr Yam announced the result. It was no wonder; the margin was so close that they had to ask for recount. SPP lost by 114 votes (0.7%). What happened to those 200 over votes that were rejected? This feeling is akin to getting 49.5 marks for exams. SUX.

I felt sad for Mr Chiam. Although Mr Chiam switched from Potong Pasir to Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC and lost, he had fought well. The result of 43% is commendable!

With his straight-laced and deadpan expression, Yam delivered his announcements in an even-handed monotone, without fear or favour to any of the parties, as should be. Hmm, very professional indeed! Read more @ A new star is born!

iPhone 4 in white

Having been a Nokia user for years, I have finally decided to switch to Apple. I made my online purchase at the Singtel shop today!!

And why iPhone 4 now?

Because I decided I shall not wait for iPhone 5 anymore. And the iPhone 4 in white is finally available! I love white - N95 N97 in WHITE, iPhone 3 in WHITE and now iPhone 4 in WHITE!! Okay, "white" is a girl thing (to most).

Counting down to 5/5/11! See! I even chose a nice date for my new toy!

White iPhone goes on sale!

Some of my friends lamented that they never had a chance to vote. But ever since I reached the legal age of 21, I have the chance to vote at every elections. LOL.
