Singapore: West Coast death: Paramedic asked accused repeatedly for help

The businessman accused of causing his father's death in their West Coast Rise house last year had sat in a daze as a paramedic trying to resuscitate the elderly man asked him repeatedly for help.
Mark Tan Peng Liat, 30, was sitting on a chair "in a daze" and seemed "shocked" as Singapore Civil Defence Force paramedic Elroy Chan asked for help to move his father's body.
He did not respond when asked a second time, said Mr Chan, who took the stand on Friday (July 8), the second day of Tan's trial for culpable homicide.
Tan was said to have put his father Mr Tan Kok Keng, 67, in a headlock and chokehold after a quarrel on Feb 10. The older man was sent to hospital and later pronounced dead.

ON THE NEW COLOURS & LOGO FOR CROSS RIVER STATE NIGERIA

Image
Cross River State Logo As part of the celebration of the State’s 50th anniversary, the Governor and his Executive Council have decided to deprive the State of her famed brand identities namely- the colours, motto and logo. A government official told pressmen that the State colours will be changed in the next few days. It is said the colours of red and white will replace the colours of blue and white. The new red and white logo also has a bull in the middle signifying the ‘energy’ behind the activities in the State and the 18 stars encircling the logo represent the 18 local governments of Cross River State. •Analyzing the changes and the reasons for them, one will see that the State Executive Council has no compelling reason to change the State logo. They are simply looking for mundane undertakings just to lay claim to having marked the State’s golden jubilee. How can they change the State logo which is unique in all its ways into that new thing that looks like the ...

Ken Aklah's Framework; A Solution To Nigeria's Divestment Situation And Economic Down-turn

Image
Ken Aklah's opinion to the current divestment situation (a situation where investment index is low) in the Country as the result of the method adopted by this present administration to fight corruption is that, Globally, corruption remains a laid-back-nature of frontier societies mostly at the Southern hemisphere. This goes further to establish that corruption is not a function of genetic peculiarity, but of gross underdevelopment and poverty in material existence because the advanced societies had been in heigthened state of corruption in their formative stage, but became gradually refined, as they made tremendous economic improvements. However, this is not to say that those societies are free of corruption. Hopefully, third world countries shall progress to that stage with time. The methods of tackling corruption are varied and it is quite worrisome that the method adopted by Nigeria, in this present administration has plunged the country into an embarrassing...
