How To Force A Kiss to A Girl

A Singaporean navy officer currently training in an Australia academy was found guilty of forcing a kiss out of a fellow female cadet.

However, Benedict Ang Yong Chuean, a trainee at the Australian Defence Force Academy, was cleared on Friday of a second charge of undoing her bra and touching her breast while she slept, according to a report on The Canberra Times.

The Australian news outlet reported that Ang, 22, had entered the female cadet's room in the wee hours of May 6 last year.

He proceeded to lay down on a bed next to the 18-year-old cadet after a night out in town where she had 18 drinks.

Ang, who had five drinks on the same night, was said to have then rubbed her back, before holding her by the jaw and repeatedly trying to kiss her.

The female cadet said she used her teeth to force him to stop before falling back asleep, while Ang said that the kiss was consensual.

He also said that he stopped kissing her after she said: "I can't do this, you're like my bro."

The prosecution team claimed that Ang had an "unrequited love" for the cadet he reportedly refers to as "sis", and also told the court that he admitted to fellow cadets that he "f**ked up" and pleaded with them not to make a report for fear of ruining his career.

Ang maintained his innocence throughout the trial, and refuted the latter suggestion, saying that he was fearful of the ADFA's rules on non-fraternisation instead.

The Straits Times reported that Ang is a Singapore Armed Forces scholar who is studying at the ADFA to study for a degree awarded by the University of New South Wales.

Ang will be sentenced in late May, and is currently out on bail.

The World's Best Taxi Driver

Kind cabby lends passenger $20 because she left her wallet at home 

 
Diane was touched by the kindness shown by a taxi driver, who not only trusted her to pay the $15 fare at a later time when she left her wallet at home, but also lent her $20.

The STOMPer is glad to know such a kind soul still exists today.

She said:

"I called for a cab yesterday (April 4) at 3.20pm to get from Yishun to Compassvale and when I reached Compassvale, I realised I didn't bring my wallet.

"I had absolutely no money on me.

"Andrew (Comfort Delgro SH8729L) not only trusted that I would transfer the fare of $15 when I got home.

"He also gave me another $20 as I didn't have any money on me at all, not even my ez-link card.

"What he did really made my day. Without his help, I probably would have had to cab home to get my wallet and I would miss out on a work assignment.

"Such taxi drivers are a rare find especially when there are so many instances of passengers running off without paying their fares.

"Trust and kindness are traits which are sorely missing nowadays and it is heartening to know it still exists."

Fake Doctor in Singapore - Warning!

Unemployed man jailed for drugging and stealing from 62-year-old victim

Ching Sui Nai



An unemployed man who posed as a doctor and gave sleeping tablets to a woman before stealing her things was jailed for two years on Monday.

Oh Koon Shin, 52, had pleaded guilty to administering a stupefying drug to retiree Ching Sui Nai, 62, with the intent to steal her property amounting to $222 at Jurong Polyclinic at Jurong East Avenue 1 on Dec 29 last year.

A district court heard that Madam Ching was at the polyclinic to see a doctor when Oh approached her and said he was a specialist.

He gave her four blue coloured tablets and convinced her to take them. Oh approached her again when she was queuing to get her medication and offered to pay and collect the medication for her.

He then gave her another four pills. She felt drowsy after taking them. Oh was then seen rummaging through her bag and removing a ring from her finger. A polyclinic staff alerted her colleague about Oh behaving suspiciously.

A day before, there had been an incident where an elderly woman's necklace was stolen by a man after she was given two blue coloured pills to take. Oh was subsequently arrested.

District Judge Eddy Tham, who took a similar charge and one of fraudulent possession into consideration, said Oh administered the stupefying drug with no regard for the possible adverse consequences of the victims.

He said Oh had targeted victims who were elderly, and therefore, vulnerable. A deterrent sentence was called for to protect this group of people, he added.

Singaporean Urban Artist

'Sticker Lady' and accomplice plead guilty

“Sticker Lady” Samantha Lo Xin Min pleaded guilty on Tuesday to seven counts of mischief, while her alleged accomplice Anthony Chong Tze Chen also pleaded guilty to two counts of abetting Lo and one of mischief.

The eight other charges of mischief against Lo and the five other charges against Chong  are being taken into consideration, their lawyers said.

Senior counsel Philip Jeyaretnam proposed for a community service order to be imposed on his client Lo, 26, who is a “first time offender”, Derek Kang, also one of Lo’s lawyers, told Yahoo! Singapore.

Jeyeratnam said that Lo is “remorseful” and had “no ill intent” behind her actions, and pointed out that “full restitution has been made”, said Kang.

Lawyer Kenneth Pereira, who is representing 30-year-old Chong, confirmed that he had also applied to court for a community service order to be imposed on his client. Pereira said that Chong has “no risk of re-offending” and “has a talent for art” which he used in positive ways such as holding art workshops.

The court will assess suitable community service orders for the both of them.

The next court hearing is scheduled on 8 May this year.

Lo and Chong are allegedly behind the "My Grandfather Road" series of street signs and stickers that were found painted on sections of Robinson and Maxwell roads in May last year.

Circular stickers printed with various captions were also found on a pavement near Lau Pa Sat. Captions included taglines such as “Press once can already” and “Anyhow paste kena fine”. It's understood that these stickers were also found on other road traffic signs across Singapore.

Sticker lady, urban artists the next wave of Singapore masters?

Local artists colouring beyond the lines — both literally and figuratively -- has raised much controversy of late.

Remember Samantha Lo, otherwise known by her moniker SKL0 or — more infamously — as the 'Sticker Lady'?

Her transgression: vandalism, all in the name of art. Lo, 25, was the brainchild behind a spate of quirky and humorous slogans, using the mediums of spray-painting and stickers, placed in the public sphere earlier in the year.

While detractors question her efforts to make her voice heard and her art appreciated in a manner that seemingly disregards the law, supporters have also been vocal in decrying the hoopla surrounding the case. Let artists foster their creativity without constraints, they say — particularly when the 'crime' itself seems minimal to most.

While the gauntlet has yet to fall, SKL0 and other urban artists had the chance to showcase their works recently, as part of a showcase, 'Singapore's Finest'.

The exhibition was held at gallery 28th Février, owned by Dominic Khoo, a strong supporter of the urban arts. A photographer himself, he says he brought a band of local street artists together in an effort to "send the elevator back down", in order that no man is left behind in the march towards artistic progress on the local front.

Khoo says the urban arts is the next wave, and should be allowed the opportunity to develop organically, as well as given the attention it deserves. He believes there should be a focus on collecting and archiving the works of what he terms as "tomorrow's masters". This, especially on the back of the criticism street artists face from some quarters, in their quest to express themselves.

"I think as an artist you always look for what is real, what is true to yourself. And graffiti artists are very much like that. In fact, they have got a quality that almost no other artist has: they spend their time training in secrecy or learning their techniques very quietly. They have exhibitions way before any other artists do, but all their exhibitions are free. They experience ridicule and persecution as well. For many years, most people have just seen their art as vandalism."

'Singapore's Finest' included a stable of artists aside from SKL0, such as Trase, Antz, Zero, Jaba and Slacsatu. Khoo's focus is not to highlight the more controversial aspects; rather, he wants to rally support for what has been an underground movement for the most part. To him, the impermanence of graffiti art — by its very nature transient — must be addressed, so that local talent are afforded the critical opportunity to have their works recorded for posterity.

"How do you define something that is slightly rebellious, but yet is in the confines of fine art? You talk about shades of grey when you talk about Rembrandt. Today, we are talking about guys who come with spray cans and think about distance from the wall, amount of drip, stencils, designing... all this with their hearts pounding, spraying and running off, you know? It's a very different thing altogether. I think the very least I could do is to provide a space for these artists, for them to display their art on canvas. So that they can say hey, I can be proud of my work."

The dichotomy that exists seems to be tied to bringing a sense of balance to art forms that are viewed as being on the fringes of the art world, and do not have the support or acceptance that more traditional forms garner. But for the arts scene to flourish truly, then perhaps the dampers need to come off so that obstacles aren't quite so insurmountable for those who express themselves through street art.

To Khoo, putting things in perspective is important when it comes to the issue of self-expression without borders. Seeing this as an opportunity to course-correct, the gallery owner says rather than focusing on the supposed transgressions of SKL0 and others in the same boat, it is more important to look at the intention behind such works.

"I think they understand that yes, they could get into trouble. That is something they know and accept, but it doesn't make them bad people, right? And intent is very important. Sometimes, proving intent could be one of the toughest things ever. But to understand them as characters, you need to really understand what they do and how you speak for them."

He stresses though, these are not closet recalcitrants — they are artists expressing themselves through mediums that resonate best with them.

"You know, there is actually a lot of integrity with those who are true artists — you can see what they do and what they stand for. I think if you have a particular artist who always speaks about love, you're not going to get some teddy bear killer. I'll be shocked if I find out that he had a stash of dismembered teddy bears in his closet!"

Understanding and embracing street art and the artists behind the movement would likely go a long way towards fostering a truly evolved artistic local landscape. Only then can creativity and freedom of expression have true opportunity to intersect with talent, when barriers to entry and success are diminished or eradicated entirely.

How To Watch Porn On Public

2 Uncles Fight On The MRT Over PORNOGRAPHIC MATERIALS

A fight erupted on a train approaching Sembawang MRT station earlier in January this year, after a woman scolded a man for watching porn with the volume turned on loudly in public.

According to a report in Shin Min Daily, the incident took place on the at 12.30am and was filmed by a commuter who also uploaded the clip online.

The man in the striped shirt had been watching porn on his laptop on the train, with the volume turned on loudly.

A middle-aged woman seated diagonally across him called him "Siao!" (meaning crazy in Hokkien), to which he argued back.

The woman's husband then came at the man and punched him in the left cheek, causing him to fall against the train's window and his laptop to drop onto the ground.

A few other men, supposedly the husband's friends, then started attacking the man.

According to the video's caption, they 'started raining heavy blows on the man's head, body. Lots of kicking and punching were involved.'

Some commuters went over to stop the fight and the man in the striped shirt said he wanted to call the police.

Upon hearing this, a man in a yellow shirt then charged towards the man so as to 'teach him a lesson', but was pulled away by friends.

The man in the striped shirt called the police and said that he had been attacked on the train.

The woman's husband then continued spewing vulgarities and replied that he did not mind waiting for police to arrive. He also called the man a 'sissy'.

The Secret Phrases Every Child Must Hear

8 phrases every child needs to hear

Singapore students are ranked as one of the best in math, science and reading literacy.
Through my work, I get to interact with lots of youths and young adults. It’s fun but challenging work!
As you might expect, youths face stress in many different areas: academics, co-curricular activities, career planning, dating, etc.
But their most common source of frustration is their relationship with their parents.
Parents have excellent intentions, but they don’t always express their love in the best possible way.
Youths often perceive their parents as being naggy, impatient, irritating or overbearing. If you’re a parent, I’m sure you don’t want your children to think about you that way!
On the contrary, I’m certain that you want to be a caring, encouraging, loving and competent parent.
I’ve come up with a list of eight simple phrases you can use, which will help you to become that kind of parent:
1. “I believe in you”
As children grow up, they look to others for approval and validation. When you show your children that you genuinely believe in them, they’re more likely to become secure and self-confident.
2. “Thank you”
I know many parents who refuse to thank their children for anything. These parents believe that their children are indebted to them because of all the parental sacrifices they’ve made.
I believe, however, that saying “thank you” to your children is a basic way of teaching them to be appreciative.
3. “Please”
You can teach your children to be polite by first being polite to them. Just because you’re an authority figure in their life doesn’t mean that you need to continually speak to them as if you’re their boss or supervisor.
4. “I’m proud of you”
Some parents never say this to their children. As a result, these children may constantly question their self-worth. In severe cases, they may spend much of their lives trying to prove themselves to their parents or to the world.
5. “Good effort!”
As a parent, praise your children for their effort and hard work, instead of the results they achieve. In this way, your children will understand that the goal is always to be the best they can be, not to be better than other people.
The results you get are merely feedback about how you can do things differently in the future. It’s not what defines you as an individual.
6. “What do you think?”
Many children feel as if their opinions don’t matter, because their parents usually make decisions on their behalf. By asking your children “What do you think?” you demonstrate that their thoughts and opinions count.
7. “I trust you”
When you say this to your children, they’ll start to take full responsibility for their choices and their lives, because they'll believe that they can be trusted to make their own decisions. Their parents no longer need to “baby” them.
8. “My love for you is unconditional”
Some parents make it seem like they love their children more when their children behave well, get good grades or work at a “prestigious” company.
Sure, you might be more pleased with your children when they do something well, but you need to make it clear that you love them exactly the same, no matter how many (or how few) accomplishments they rack up.
In closing…
These eight phrases are simple but powerful. Focus on using just one phrase each week—or even each month—and turn it into a habit.
Slowly but surely, your home will become a place of love, encouragement and support—one day at a time, one phrase at a time. Let’s get started today!
