Distancing is usually inevitable when siblings got married and have their own families. Of course, there are some special cases. But for most, it’s unlikely for us to share the same kind of bond like when we were young. We cared and shared then but now can’t say the same.


I have observed for most cases that I know, it’s usually the spouse of the siblings that caused the ‘drift’. Kinship sometimes is so fragile.

For year 1 and 2, its part of HCL.
For year 3 onwards, its seperate, optional.

Hi daisy,

Curious to know what's covered in Chinese Lit, maybe you could provide some highlights here. My dd is also taking HCL but I have yet heard her mentioning anything about literature.

Thanks.

Not 马来糕 but the traditional 鸡蛋糕, anyone can share the recipes? TIA.

There should not even be new IP schools. IP is for students who are predicted to pass \"O\" levels with flying colours. This lets them use the time for studying to do more meaningful stuff. Schools like neighbourhood schools etc etc should not even have IP, if you have an average of B4 for the majority of th students in the school, they should not deserve the IP status. Having IP status for too many schools will result in a mass drop in the standard of education in singapore.


If the students are admitted into JC and they fail \"A\" levels, their highest education standard would be at PSLE level, causing them to lose out. \"O\" levels are there to help students who cannot or may not pass the \"A\" levels, not to burden them.

I sort of agree with you. With so many IP schools in the near future, what's so special about IP anymore?

you need to nominate your friend as you nominee first, then redeem accordingly

If I nominate a friend as my nominee, does he have the authority to get ticket for someone else?

No. you have to log in your account to redeem the ticket for your friend/nominee. The ticket will be issued based on your nominee registered on SQ website

you are still in control of the account, not your nominee

there is a need to pay for the tax and surcharges too.........[/quote]Verykiasu2010, thank you very much.

You can use to redeem either child / adult tickets - same mileage required though child ticket is about 2/3 or 3/4 adult ticket price. However, take note that if SIA has promotion, it is usually on adult ticket, and not child ticket (sometimes up to 50% off). Also, if you are buying child ticket separately, you cannot buy online (as child will need accompanying adult), so you need to get from SIA office. Tell them which flight youhave redeem for and get the child ticket for same flight. If you book early, should not have issue of no seat.

Is it possible to redeem air ticket for an overseas friend to fly into S'pore?

TIA

Tried using minced meat readily bought from supermarket but results were unsatisfactory. Did the fault lie with the meat processing or was it the fire control. Any tips are welcomed as my family really loves this simple dish. Thks.

I supposed those offered a place in IP schools still need to fulfill the required T-score for their PSLE. May I know how much?

Visiting Cameron this June and would like to visit its tea plantation. There are a few of them, anyone knows which is the popular one?


TIA
