Not for love of money, but of Humanity. "Greater is he who works for the good of all, then he who works for the good of himself only" ~ Matthew 25:40: "The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'"- (NIV). I live in Singapore where the Emperor must not be disturbed.

In the context of Justice in Singapore, it seems much the case of 'might makes right'.

In the context of Justice in Singapore, it seems much the case of 'might makes right'.

Those who can afford it don't hesitate to hire legal muscles to prove their might whilst Lawyers and Judges simply revel at the attention and superfluous profit from the conduct of such court room wayang shows. See: 'DOC AND EX-GF IN LEGAL FIGHT OVER PET DOG': [19 May 2010, SOURCE: The Straits Times]
BTW, has anyone heard of mediation; oh its now passé in 'fast n modern' Singapore?- sorry to offend, I meekly retract my suggestion.
The importance of wealth and prestige amongst Singaporeans cannot be overemphasized: ['Why pay must go up': ST 23Mar2007 (pict) ].
In Singapore, when 'leaders' demand perks and privileges, their decision is final, no correspondence would be entertained.
Singapore must be a police state ruled by 'anarcho-capitalists' with the judiciary being just as complicit.

(in return for) a temporary blanket of security and what turned out to be an illusory prosperity" [The Times, 7Sept2009]
