at last we have a Singapore-born winner
Well, not really "at last".
She is Singapore's most be-medalled Olympian - she has 3 bronzes and a silver to her name, 2 bronzes from the last para-olympics.
Well Done!!!!
I feel prouder with Laurentia's achievements than the table tennis medal we paid for
Go Girl ! You really made us proud !!

I like this quote from the President of the Society for Physically Disabled:
If we persist in having two different standards, we reinforce the erroneous perception that disabled people are different, and strengthen the barriers against building an inclusive society. We cannot build a gracious inclusive society if we continue to deny the achievements of those perceived to be different and less able than we.
The feeling is just different just as u copied and scored 100 marks vs you study and scored 100 marks. You reach the same objective but the feeling is different.
sounds so wrong. you make it seem like the new citizens cheated.
i would feel that in any case, SINGAPORE won the medal.
because after all, we're Singaporeans helping our country to win the gold, new citizens or not
New citizens did not cheat.
Singapore did.
New citizens did not cheat.
Singapore did.
