February 4, 2012 in Committee, Hall, Uncategorized

Written by Loh Soon Hui I like to think of myself as a kind-hearted person. I donate to street beggars, feed the strays at my block, and I’ve ever stopped to administer first aid to a woman who collapsed by the side of the street.  But really, just like most of you reading this, I’m [...]
