Ah Meng not of Singapore origin hor. She was smuggled in from Indonesia.
Can I pull string ornot? I shook Ah Meng's hand before leh (I got the photo to prove it).FQW:

(3) 24K (descendant of local orang utan, here before Parameswara arrived)
So I considered 20K? Below orang utans but above humans? :faint:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ah_Meng[/quote]But Ah Meng is a Sumatran orang utan so there is possible link with Parameswara kingdom in Palembang south Sumatera, therefore FQW still got chance to be 20k

even for Parameswara era is not that pure an SC…perhaps the Sri Vijaya or the Majapahit may be more pure … but any way I already suggested the time frame of Abraham

If u want to trace back as far as Sri Vijaya or the Majapahit then the SPRs from Indonesia will even be purer than the 14k SC so yr suggestion fr the Abraham time frame is better, or even better from the Noah time frame ? Before the flood there probably was no Singapore island yet

When I first read \"that\" post, I was so stunned and appalled by it.
My kids are Singaporean, though I am not.
It saddens me that they are being labelled as \"impure Singaporean\" when this is where they were born and bred.
They proudly sing the Majulah Singapura and happily recite the pledge (though not entirely sang or pronounced correctly). For them to be labelled a 2nd class citizen in THEIR OWN COUNTRY really saddens me.
Does it mean whoever marries a Singaporean must convert to be a Singaporean or else their kids are deemed 2nd class? Can't imagine this could be a factor when deciding whether to marry or not ((Noo... you can't marry a singaporean... you will be forced to convert!!! :yikes: ))
But I am so glad there are many others who disagree with that post. :rahrah: Thank you for proving that Singaporeans are not a bunch of ____. -
This whole thing just reminds me of Nazism and Adolf Hitler.

Is this not a forum about Singaporean to get priority for P1 places during balloting?
Indeed!!
However, your line of argument is getting too askewed ... so much so that it is becoming impossible to understand nor accept the rationale.
Have a good day!! -

Waaaaah bro, just a group of us meeting for hi-tea together once and you have such a positive assessment of me .... :salute: and :thankyou:
AB, coming from as calm a person as you, I can tell that you're totally riled.autumnbronze:
If I may be blunt, you are looking at it from a totally myopic perspective.
Life is not only about getting your kid to \"the school you want.\". It's more about LIVING it.
My 2 cents.
I have been very disturbed by some of the postings lately, actually ... :sad: -
Since MOE has made the decision to give priority to Singaporeans with immediate effect, we should be satisfied. It’s disturbing to read some of the posts.
It’s not easy to be granted Singapore citizenship. Of course there are some who get this privilege and misuse it. We should not have any discussion to further differentiate between PURE Singaporeans and those converted ones…this will cause differences and rifts. -
