why Zoe Tay’s son was accepted into HPPS??

[blueblue]

He gave me that impression he was actually telling the world that he can afford to buy a house there…


I doubt his wife will restrain him…his wife is a friend of my SIL.

SIl told me she has this habit of trying to ‘compare’ wealth…

maybe because her husb is in the entertainment social circle. In this line, it is a norm always compare which artiste is more \"successful\" or more \"glamorous\" in Mediacorp.


if he shift less than 1 km, in fact there are 2 SAP schools for his kids - Nanyang and Pei Hwa. His daughter (elder child) due for P1 2015.

No way he can stay within 1km of nanyang and pei hwa.
It is normal for people to compare and even bitch, not to mention in the entertainment industry...who has meaty roles, stay in what type of house and district, children attend what school....list goes on. Never ending.

No harm being humble right ?

Mediacorp celebrities often target \"Speech and drama\", an area to volunteer in under phase 2B.

i) however, they may face competition from other parents who submit impressive curriculum vitae to school, also hoping to get selected / picked to serve in that same niche area of PV.

eg: parents who are experienced Primary school teachers themselves teaching language(s) in their own schools or teaching \"Speech and drama\" classes. Some of them taught for years, batch after batch of students.

ii) school may also hire external Enrichment Service provider vendor(s) to come down Nanyang premises, teach P1 to P6 pupils \"Speech and Drama\".

Thus it pays to be wise for celebrity to be humble, due to competition faced by other parents as well, all fighting for a chance to get selected for PV, to enter into Top school(s).

Besides 'speech and DRAMA', what other areas will celebrities want to do? They would not want to be caught watering plants or painting murals on the walls. Nether will they want to be Mr/Ms Lollipop every morn helping kids cross the road. Will they do non-glamorous 'jobs'. Imagine parents telling one another, ' :yikes: xxx watering plants leh, or holding traffic sign on the road.'

if xxx hold traffic sign on the road -
instead of directing traffic properly, end up creating bad traffic jam at King's road. Cars keep horning non stop. Residents run out of houses, see who's creating commotion. :please: :imcool:

he buy one house, his wife buy another house.
one to stay, another to collect rental income.
less than 1 km from branded school(s) sure can find eager tenants (to enrol P1 kids) keen to rent. When his wife likes to \"compare\" wealth with others, she can say see: now they own two houses. Rich !
