One of the most special nites out on the town happend to me last week. I was invited to the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy 5th Annivrsary Gala Dinner at the Shangri-La Hotel and got hijacked by a friend to join her table as her dad was not attending. Next thing you know, I end up at the front table hosted by none other than our Deputy Prime Minister Teo Chee Hean!!! We were feet away from the stage listening to our founding father, Lee Kuan Yew take questions from the audience and his insight on everything from China to the world economic crisis! Amazing!!! And what more, talking to DPM, we realize we are both Man U fan's (he studied in Manchester!) and had similar opinions on the Man U Vs Arsenal match we both caught!!! This was not just small talk but to soccer fans chatting about the Beautiful Game! Only difference is that one fan was a humble manager in a resort...and the other was the Deputy Prime Minister of Singapore!!!!! I could not believe what a night out on the town it turned out to be!!!
