However, it can be used to relieve the pain and sufferings of the cancer patients, which is normally prescribed by the patients' doctor at the advanced stage of the illness. <BR/><BR/>So, wouldn't this so-called "poisonous" drug has turned into a "medicinal drug" when it is deemed appropriate at times?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5539995.post-1138339265747047542006-01-27T13:21:00.000+08:002006-01-27T13:21:00.000+08:00I like your blogs, you share my sentiments.I like your blogs, you share my sentiments.Calvin aka Yamada Shun 山田駿https://www.blogger.com/profile/18032994547363233561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5539995.post-1138248540856882542006-01-26T12:09:00.000+08:002006-01-26T12:09:00.000+08:00It is sad that the government usually refers to th...It is sad that the government usually refers to the minority as 'minority problem' etc. As the largest ethnic group would not it be easier for us to try to incorporate the minority than to ask the minority to try to integrate into the majority? Human nature is such that you feel secure when you are with your own kind. Therefore it is always easier for the majority to integrate the minority than the other way round.Wormiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13177889519248808487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5539995.post-1138244072510130282006-01-26T10:54:00.000+08:002006-01-26T10:54:00.000+08:00I don't agree with the word 'time bombs' & 'poison...I don't agree with the word 'time bombs' & 'poison in a concoction of medicine'. It assumes that the minorities must always be viewed with suspicions. Why is there a need for racial integration only in HDB flats? There is no such bias in private estates. Is that because those living in the private estates are more socially integrated than the hdb dwellers?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5539995.post-1138208260480378822006-01-26T00:57:00.000+08:002006-01-26T00:57:00.000+08:00Obviously the WP has made a real bummer of a miani...Obviously the WP has made a real bummer of a mianifesto. Just because SG appears to be integrated now doesn't mean it will remain the same in the future, and apparently they appear to favour segregation.. Even my father, never the most gregarious PAP supporter, agree with them on this.<BR/><BR/>What if next time Block A's residents meet at, say, the soccer field to fight Block B's residents. How, woot ah? Ohh the WP President can be the referee.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
