How do you write an article that covers one page (minus an ad) about Sri Temasek, the official PMs residence and despite all the words, fail to say where old man spends or sleeps most of his time. There are a number of residences in the Istana.

The power of omission is really astounding.

Hmmm..rather sanguine about that selective amnesia bit. I'm no regime apologist, but couldn't we read it for what is? Even if it's only new backdrop for birthday song and dance act?

Make way! make way! I'm betting my entire miserable stash on the Whole Lee or the holy family moving into the premises. You know, military maxim, must have depth in defence. Security outlook, not too favourable. Too many people unhappy. See what gambling can do to your mind? I'm all screwed up!

A thousand times better than Temasek getting a good return on the Merrill Lynch deal. Wanna join?
