In the latest annual report of the Auditor-General’s Office (AGO) the Ministry of Education (MOE) revealed that they lost S$7.16 million, as of Jun 2015, to foreigners students who default on their education loan. The sum cannot be claimed back from their guarantors who are also foreigners, which led to the default.
It is common knowledge foreign students default on their education loan and scholarship obligations by simply refusing to return to Singapore. Also MOE revealed that the education loans are “non-profit” and that students can loan for as long as 20 years. Singaporean students studying in private school are not given such benefit.

A Singaporean receive a mail/parcel and was surprised the address that was indicated on it. It starts of with a Singapore etc and ends with China. This is a joke.

The defence claimed that Noraidah Mohd Yussof has Asperger syndrome – disorder characterized by significant difficulties in social interaction and nonverbal communication. But was rejected by the judge.
Instead the judge accepted the prosecution that she has personality aberration – including a very low tolerance for frustration, a tendency to act impulsively and marked proneness to blame others.
When the boy was two, Noraidah, became irritated when teaching him the alphabet. She pushed him and stepped on his ribs when he fell. She also twisted his hand when he scribbled on a sofa. She later took him to hospital, where he was found with fractures to an elbow, calf and four ribs, as well as multiple bruises.
When the boy was four, Noraidah pushed him for not reciting numbers properly. She then told him to get ready as she was going to fetch his sister from school. As she took a shower, he stood outside the bathroom, still reciting.
She got angry that he was mumbling numbers instead of getting ready, she then held him by the neck until he was lifted off the ground against the wall. He started gasping for air and then stopped moving.
In what the prosecution described as one of the saddest cases of child abuse.
