Mr Khaw Boon Wan Has Become A Vegetable...

...sourcing agent. For no apparent reason, the National Development Minister decides to take over the role of Mr Lim Swee Say, who's trademark byline is: "We will diversify our sources...". This is quite a pivot from his earlier "My priority is to protect our babies" from wild boars.

In the meantime, much closer home to his responsibilities as National Development Minister, another Indonesian maid has lost her life after falling out of a window from a flat. It may not be too long before another child decides to climb out of a window and suffer the same fate. Strangely, Mr khaw has chosen to remain silent on this.

In other news, the lawyer Mr Ravi, the perpetual thorn in the side of the government, has been declared unfit to practice by his psychiatrist in a case mired in controversy (See today's forum letter by Mr Young Pak Nang). I wonder what would it take to declare a minister unfit for duty?

Would we have to wait for a diplomatic incident where a minister fondles a foreign dignitary's wife in an inappropriate manner (not that there's ever an appropriate manner) before any action is taken?
