Philip Jeyaretnam on his brother

I REFER to the Insight interview with me yesterday, 'From rank outsider to public guardian'.
Unfortunately, what I said about my brother, Kenneth, in answer to the question on what I thought about his taking over the leadership of the Reform Party, was omitted.
I told the interviewer that Kenneth has 'embarked on a serious project, and I am sure he will do a good job, knowing his capability'.
It is a pity that an interview about my appointment to the Public Service Commission, subsequently billed as being about my father and brother, omitted my actual response, and jumped to the very different subject of choices in life.
