Jack Neo vs Patricia Mok Saga
Patricia Mok honestly remarked that she left Jack Neo's JTeam only because they did not fulfill their promises to her. She continued and said that she was very unhappy back then when Neo arranged for her to appear as a cheerleader in variety show, Top Fun. Neo strongly answered, "I only had good intentions!"
After a "forced confession" from hosts Quan Yifeng and Guo Liang of variety show CelebriTea Break, Mok clarified that it was not her diva attitude that caused JTeam to stop their contract with her.
She said, "I was not trying to be a diva. At that point of time in 2004 and 2005 when my contract with JTeam was coming to an end, I was very unhappy because I felt that the company did not fulfill their promises to me."

I think Jack Neo is right. To be a host is not easy. Look at Taiwanese hosts, not only do they have a good sense of humor, they also possess quick reflexes, are knowledgable and multi-talented.
Patricia Mok is good as a supporting cast but as a host, there are other candidates. However, I agree that the cheerleader part is really stupid, no wonder Patricia Mok is angry.

Let's Celebrate Racial Harmony Day

Singapore celebrates its Racial Harmony Day annually on 21 July. This is a special day because many years ago, racial riots broke out and resulted in massive damages to properties and loss of lives.
We need to remember this day because the peace which come from racial harmony should not be taken for granted. There are ethnic tensions and killings in other parts of the world but Chinese, Malays, Indians and other races can live and work together in Singapore.
Singapore is an economically competitive place which attracts businesses and talents all over the world. Sinagpore is also a beautiful and green island.
More importantly, Singapore is our home where our children can experience different food and culture of the different races!
As a small nation, we could be easily gobbled up if Singaporeans are disunited and torn apart by racial feuds.
While we still need more time to forge a national identity, we can give ourselves a pat on the back for our decades-long efforts in preserving racial harmony.
Let's celebrate and treasure our racial harmony.
