One more change announced by the Prime Minister's Office yesterday was that Senior Counsel Vinodh Coomaraswamy from Shook Lin & Bok would join the Bench as judicial commissioner.

In 1991, Oxford-educated Mr Vinodh, 47, was the first Singaporean to top the United Kingdom Bar exams.

He follows in his father's footsteps in becoming a High Court judge. The late Justice Punch Coomaraswamy served in the High Court between 1984 and 1993.

Punch was a independent Judge and i do hope Vinodh will be like his father and not side with the papies establishment

In 1991, Oxford-educated Mr Vinodh, 47, was the first Singaporean to top the United Kingdom Bar exams.

In 1991, he hadn't even stepped into Oxford University. In 1991, the "Nottingham-educated" sat for his UK Bar exams. He did his postgraduate in 1998 at Oxford.

So die die also must disown Nottingham University.
