Agreed, totally support.
Those who \"bought from China\" not even know how to sing our national anthem.

[MrsKiasu]

Never thought of that :razz: I dont chase stars..


You going?

[zbear]

No lah.


I welcome him home from the comfort of my home.

To be frank,i really wanted to go airport:)

Hubby say i am crazy…lol
But i need to help prep girl to go school,
So have to face reality & just watch from tv:)

Love the short interview they had with his mum(on plane),
On what advice she had for fellow parents:)
(She said something like:
Love your child…give them all the support,
But Don’t force the child!!!..)
& she thanked all those who had helped Joseph all these years!
Great mummy!! Our role model!!
& his dad is wonderful too!!
Extraordinary child+extraordinary parents= extraordinary achievement
