... written on Dec 19 2016Donald Trump will not become the 45th President of the United States until Friday, January 20, 2017, in Washington, D.C. That’s more than a month away. But the staffs he’s hiring have raised more eyebrows than his stunning victory. And he’s enjoying every moment of providing the same kind of entertainment he provided on his […]
... written on Dec 15 2016Trump makes comment. Mainstream media goes bonkers. Later, Trump is to be proven right. And the cycle repeats.

... written on Dec 10 2016This is indeed very embarrassing to two nations that were supposed to be Muslim brothers.

Above all, you’ll be paid a mind-boggling S$20,000 (US$14,000; £11,300; RM62,000) for a 4-hour work. That’s easily one of the best jobs, if not the […]
