Who cares about the humble living? As a President, Halimah Yacob should accept all the good and bad that goes along with the job, including moving out of her jumbo flat. Who can afford 'humble living' in a penthouse anyway?

In an interview with the media after Joseph Schooling's historic Olympic gold medal win in the 100m butterfly event, Colin Schooling, the father of Joseph expressed his joy at Joseph's win but struck a humble tone and insisted his boy had nothing special about him and he was just a boy interested in sports.

I visited one of the pap's Marine Parade branches in MacPherson and was taken aback to see a queue of about a hundred forming after 6pm. When it came to the turn of a young man around my age to see a grassroots leader to type the case, I was then shocked to see the grassroots leader who was wearing his party shirt, taunting the young guy whom he accused of being a WP member, saying he had photos to prove so. What about the conduct letter pm Lee issued to all his MPs 'reminding' them to be 'humble' in victory?

I would like to commend MP, Teo Ser Luck. He is a MP who is humble and has a genuine heart for serving the people. I am very happy to see his appointment as Minister of State, Manpower in the new cabinet 2015.

Ringgit falls to record Low. One SGD is now 3 RM. There are just so many things going on that it really reflected quite badly on us Singaporeans as a group. Our SGD$1 could buy a plate of food there. Their RM1 can barely buy a pack of Bee Bee from our HDB mama store. Just don't be a dick about it. Humble yourself before you step into the country. It's no wonder they resort to aiming our people if we are boorish there, as they struggle daily to feed their family.

Opposition parties need to first sort out the friendly-fire and now all parties are going through difficult but crucial horsetrading talks. However, the aftermath of the confidential meetings do not paint a rosy picture and the Worker's Party's rigidity on their area of contest is now a thorny issue to settle. I feel all parties should take a step back and WP in particular should show Singaporeans the grace of a true leader.

Known for his unusual frankness, fiery oration and bold leadership to turn ideas into action, the 78-year-old leader possesses and practices the very characteristics that many world leaders fail to emulate. He has also garnered international acclaim for his progressive policies, down-to-earth personality and simplepresentation, which has earned him a reputation as "the world's poorest president."
