There was a typo in post #1012.

"nan fang zhou kan is one the better periodicals that offer well researched, insightful articles."

 

It should be Nan Fang Zhou Mo, a weekly newspaper, also known as Southern Weekly or Southern Weekend.

The New York Times has described the Southern Weekend as "China's most influential liberal newspaper"

Anyway for the record, on 14th Jan 2013, as the MPs welcomed Madam Halimah to be elected as the 9th Speaker of Parliament.

 

MInister of State for Finance and Transport, Josephine Teo, also highlighted how Madam Halimah has made a difference not only in Singapore, but abroad as well.

 

Mrs Teo said: "In the international labour movement, Madam Halimah is a well-known and well-respected advocate of workers' interests. Singapore's unique brand of tripartism has drawn its share of criticisms over the years.

 

"However, through the active representation of our union leaders like Madam Halimah, we have won over our detractors. There is no one at the International Labour Organisation (ILO) who doesn't know her.

 

"Even after Madam Halimah was appointed Minister of State, she offered to return to the ILC to finish the challenging task she had started in 2010 to have the ILO adopt a new convention and recommendation aimed at improving the working conditions of domestic workers worldwide."

Very insightful comments from Minister of State, Josephine Teo.

I find the Tim Cook apology to Chinese on support/ service contract a well written one.

Not sure about his followup action.

 

Wonder whether our SMRT ceo or pr department will write anything of such and follow up when we have some serious service disruptions.

 

致尊敬的中国消费者：

 

在过去的两周里，我们收到了许多关于 Apple 在中国维修和保修政策的反馈。我们不仅对这些意见进行了深刻的反思，与相关部门一起仔细研究了
