Bewildering..

Er.. This comment is sorta late, but nevertheless bothers me and, I dare to say all Singaporean men.. No prize for guessing what it is. Yes, a 'man' who eloped with his piano to Britain and never returned to his supposed 'homeland' till near 40 yrs on.

The action itself is disgraceful, in my very personal opinion, very very very disgraceful and un-manly. One might argue that he had got a dream to pursue. F***.. Which guy doesn't? Even if it's juz a slacker whose dream is to woo girls and have fun. It IS still a dream isn't it? And he's had to put off his dream for a good 2 years to serve his nation.. Why can't the very talented man do so.. Ok, he did his disgraceful act and made that dickhead decision donkey years ago so let's not dwell on it..

More bewildering to guys must be the punishment meted out to the now-British upon his return to Singapore. He was fined an undisclosed fee, but the law stipulates the maximum fine is $5,000.. Wtf!! Ok, the law did not allow the judge to rule more than that. So that means, time to change the maximum fine!!! What's more, $5,000 is really peanuts to a pianist of calibre, who earns his living in Sterling Pound.. S$5,000 equates to slightly more than 1,500 pounds.. Which means the S$5,000 fine most probably means like what S$1,500 is to us. Oh yah, forgot he is so much richer than us mere mortal who don't have the balls to 'elope'.. Imagining you paying S$1,500 for running away from NS.. I'd gladly do it MAN!!! Fuck.. Are the youths of all the Singaporean men worth only S$750 individually, yearly?!?!

Seriously, time to change the constituent. I hope they bring it up in the next Parliament meeting and pass it immediately.. Raise it to at lest a figure in the region of S$50,000 or more.. And lastly, the judge obviously could have thrown that defector into jail! For a maximum of 3 years? Why the hell didn't he do so?!?! Cos he can't bring his piano in? Den maybe be nicer and allow him to bring his piano in, or at least buy him a electronic keyboard like the one my nephew plays with..
