    Rezwan, thanks for mentioning me but I am sorry to inform you that you got information wrong. It is not the president but the development minister, Khaw. Please do the necessary correction.

    Rezwan, I am happy to share with you that the post went viral in Singapore and I received over 100000 views over night. It triggered discussions on many forums and mainstream media. Should we call it the dawn of social media?
