Its good to be a woman in Singapore

Was reading article on Ma Ying Jeoh's wife when I came across this in the article.

"By some measures of social status, Taiwanese women rank second in Asia, behind only Singapore, according to a recent government study on the number of female lawmakers, administrators, managers and professional workers as well as women's share of earned income."

Oh I forget the Westerners dubbed Ho Ching the MOST powerful (important) woman in Asia or something like that. Mistress of the universe.

Yah lah.. at the expense of her family and children lor.

Got anyone do survey on which Asia country has the highest count of latch key babies ?

I bet 100 lollar.. Singapore come out TOP of the list.

Ho Ching also sibeh suay lah.. married our LHL.

She may be the most powerful. but too bad not the richest leh.

like i said.. there is always a price in everything. U work , less time on family n kids. All that so called 'equality' .

My parents are both professionals. Technically my mum will be more 'powerful' in terms of status . All that $$$ . I admire thier ethics , professionalism and dedication to thier work and loyalty to thier own family.But thier marriage and parenting life will not be a role model for us .lol.. glad i turned out .. o.k.

there is a very interesting quote by Lee Ang's wife recently, she said to know if the man has got the substance, you only need to look at his wife. she was obviously commenting and approving Ma- Ingjeu's winning the ticket to lead Taiwan.

Here, you take one look at Ho Ching.......sibeh sianz.......

Ho Ching is Ivy league educated in finance and law and worked at a multinational commerical bank, rising to high post before becoming Temasek chairwoman, right?

Happy Ap... oh wait too late.

this country really should hv men's charter. all e kenasai things come 2 men n men still hv so few rights.

the pain of childbirth has really been overcompensated for. n so many dun even wanna hv kids they jus continue to eat the pills. get all e benefits n practically none of the disadvantages.
