On the news:
I don't see what's wrong if you scrimped up and invest you and your family to a nice holiday in France. And so the news of Civil Servant who spent about 45K for his family to get a nice holiday sparked a big uproar. Although i was never much of the 'Home' section person in The Straits Times, i had to see it for myself about the big controversy about this Civil Servant who sent his family on a nice learning cooking trip over to Le Corden Blue, renown cooking school establishing it in parts of the world. I don't see why people made a big uproar about it. Afterall it's HIS family, it's HIS hard earned money which he chose to save, it's HIS life & it's HIS happiness. What's WRONG with spending your hard earned money to treat your family to a spanky holiday. I think people who made a big uproar are jealous. Really. I mean boo hoo you can't afford it but why get jealous and start spiting the poor fella for treating his own loved ones? And what about this putting the money into good use? Why not putting money where your mouth is? Not as if none of us ever did a good share bit of charity work and shun away people who ask for donations. Bloody Hell.
