USA media is free not like Singapore media controlled by government.
The media can even dig up president's dirty secrets.
Obama is 100 times more powerful than Nathan but lowly paid.
Dun make life difficult for the press.
How to write anything on some one who do nothing ?
I guess he will be selling his book in aug when he retired on what he is doing for his 12 years in position.
Some one already came out to make some noise so that he can sell his new book.
Dun these millionaire have better things to do than to sell their life on a book ?
The next book should be: "More Goh Years" ?
the president should visit more nursing homes to ensure the old folks are not mistreated...

Can't believe he could be quiet when he visited so many different countries. May be he is quiet only when visited old folks home. He saw what the shouldn't see so keep quiet. Do we need a president??

Even if nathan visits he may not see the ugly side. Usually organisations are informed in advance about the VIPs' visit. They have sufficient time to prepare wayang wayang.
Media does expose the Presidents' secrets... selectively... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devan_Nair
On March 28, 1985, Nair resigned in unclear circumstances. Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew stated in Parliament that Nair resigned to get treatment for alcoholism, a charge Nair hotly denied. According to Nair's counterclaim, he resigned under pressure when their political views came into conflict and Lee threatened to seek a motion in parliament to oust him as president. Nair also alleged that he was fed drugs to make him appear disoriented, and rumours were spread about his personal life in an attempt to discredit him. In 1999, an article about the case in the Canadian newspaper Globe and Mail resulted in a libel suit by Lee.[1] The suit was thrown out of court after Nair's counterclaim.[2]

He is now trying hard to eat wind with our money before he ORD.
He is travelling around the globe for meaningless task now.
Do you expect a ORD man to care about the issues on the nursing home ?
If he is really doing any work, he will not be so eng to attend Stars Awards every year.
Please direct your concern on the nursing home to the millonsters in charge.
He is too high ranking to care about such issues cos he is busy at the moment in collecting scrap medal.

President job is to safeguard reserves.

He retire open prata shop good.
I think he should not contest the coming presidential elections.
In the spirit of constant political renewal (as what the people at the top always claim they want), they should try to get someone younger to run for the position.
Over 80 is really too old imho.
over 80 and too fat
is too much imho
Can't imagine how much he grab at the buffet to be this size...
