[red amoeba]

Wah should we feel happy and proud? Li Jiawei spoke on TV that she will continue to play for Singapore after marriage. But hor..is her hubby going to take up Singapore citizenship or he will remain Chinese?

Like that, Li Jiawei have dual-citizenship liao -anytime she can return back to take up Mainland citizenship right? Children also no need to serve NS...so good.

Please loh, I refuse to recognise her silver medal in the 2008 Beijing Olympics as an achievement by Singaporeans...

I will see it as a medal bought with our taxpayers money for a false sense of national pride...

Make my blood boil sia seeing this other Li wayang her way around...

Pui! Pui!

 

[makapaaa]

Easy money. Why not?

 

[Royston46]

Easy money. Why not?

Yes she can make these easy money and that's about it...

But please don't make it look like she did it to make Singaporeans proud...

We know better, ok?

"Li Jiawei pledges to play for Singapore woh..."

Of course she will pledge that. There is money to be made, why not? You think she do it for the pride of being a "Singaporean"? Only dumbass idiots MIW think that way, but for the rest of us, we are not dumb and we know the real reason.

 

[R4g3]

her standard cannot represent china's 1st team. here at least she is no.1 and can yaya in smaller competitions like SEA games.

 

[kaipoh]

After all the screws she still can perform? she is flip-pan. Don't worry our gov will dump her like our torn panty soon.

 

[presby]

I too think this is bullshit. Trying to convert foreigners to Singapore Citizen to let them represent Singapore is a big waste of taxpayer and a shame. The money is better spent on training our youth to be more competitive in sports. This is such a bad reflections on the Singapore Sports Officials. We should focus on developing true Singaporeans. I rather a Singaporean compete and came last than a "Foreign Singaporean" getting gold.

Pledges from human beings don't mean squat.
There are no guarantees in life.
I was actually more pleased to hear that Jing Junhong was appointed a deputy national coach. She represented Singapore with honour and little controversy and when rewards were much less, married a Singaporean and has made Singapore her home.

the world is your oyster, why stick to one country unless you plan to settle down and have family.

My wife and me had a chat with Gong Li the other night and topic turned to Jia Wei. Her view of Jia Wei is that Singapore presented to her something like a second chance since she was not selected as 1st tier in China.

In a way, no love lost either way. Basically, a demand and supply connection.

 

[rainnix]

No wonder none of the gals can sing "marjulah singapura" when they won the silver.
