Is Marital Status Important Information?

[jw5]

It must be in the eyes of the straits times, since they provided the marital status in their write ups on all the newly introduced opposition candidates.

In the article on the ex pps who's joining SDP, information on his marital status and children were also included in the body of the article.

Buy why is there no mention of marital status in the article introducing the former civil service high flyer who is primed to be an office holder in the new cabinet?
The fact that he has been playing the guitar since he was a child, was deemed to be more important. Well done ST!

Well done ST!

bro,

i reckoned that the mention of the marital status does reflect on the character of the candidate, it goes to show whether the person is responsible enough, etc.

good to note that the MIW prides itself with candidates whom have a solid marriage coupled with children, at least till recent years.

unless of course there're skeletons in the closet, your guess is as good as mine. see how GCT's marriage is well maintained over so many years
