Well, I made frontpage of today's mah pew poh. (Did notice that an earlier copy Shin Min Daily News was without the 4D results and another that was bought later did.)

The headline appears a little sensational - "Ex-P Gives up $8k Pay, Rather Earn $300" - but I am happy with the lovely report inside about the concept of Pauseability. I could never have said it all in Chinese as well as Pauline the journalist did. The photographer also took some really flattering photos, camera-shy as I am.

Today, a mother came in with her 5-year old daughter because the daughter recognised my face in the papers and asked to come in to do some art. That came as a surprise and that was also when I realised that the article has been published.
Media exposure to create some awareness of Pauseability is really much needed at this point. This came at a point when I thought I have tried to get some media interest to no avail. Am thankful.

Great to hear from you Winnie. I wish you all the best with your PSLE and it will be a new chapter for you as you move on to secondary school.
Hi Mr Sia,
I have worked for you before...your gift is in your writing. Why not consider generating some more content in your blog and build up a steady stream of readers? then advertisers' $$ will flow in.
I really enjoy your writing. Hope to see more pieces.
