chambudzi,

Yes, I agree with you. I remember reading it in The Straits Times way back in the 1980s when he was PM then and threathening the pilots about closing down SIA and starting a new airline and re-employing the ones who kow tow (bow down) to his majesty.

He made a remark that the pilots were only 'O' levels and many owned flats at Marine Vista.

Shows that he looks down on pilot's academic qualifications.

i will sort this out....playground antics for 5 year olds !!!!!<<<

Yes, I agree with you. The silly SM is behaving worse than a 5-year old. No wonder, why many people are calling him "senile".
I can't imagine a Queen's Scholar, who holds a Law double-first from Cambridge Univerisity behaving like this! What a waste of taxpayers money to send him to Cambridge. Should have sent to Hell, for all I care.
