      I think it's a little harsh too. But the political climate is such, very difficult to carry such baggage. Right now if you work for civil service or quasi-governmental agency, better keep well beyond the pale.

      Our society is very harsh and mean-spirited, both Amy Cheong and her critics are embodiment of that. In another forum, there is all this vitriol about her being married to a foreigner, all spoken without irony despite the fact that it is exactly the same kind of racism and stereotyping that the protagonist is at fault for.

      Well said, 3boys. And yup, fully agree.

      I just realised that I had used the phrase \"beyond the pale\" in the complete opposite way from what it should be.

      My bad :oops: :oops:[/quote]My lesson of the day in ksp. :oops:

      Thank you 3boys

                IMV, d handling of d Amy Cheong’s incident is a leaf taken fr Sun Tze.

                When Sun Tze was tasked by King of Wu to demonstrate his command skills with a group of d King’s concubines,
                to quickly curtail d ill-discipline of d rowdy, previously untrained group,
                he executed 2 of d King’s concubines to get d rest to tow d line.

                Amy was just cannon fodder.

                      I feel Amy Cheong’s post will not invite so much backlash if she had posted her opinion as it is without making her piece expletive laden and with that atas undertone.


                      Kind of pity her now,in such a sorry state.

                        Educated person should think before talking. She brought this upon herself...now she really invited attention.
