- Give every child in lower secondary school a National Library card - I received the NLB card (my first ever card with my name printed on it) in primary 2 when my form teacher took the effort to provide the entire class with it. From then on I pestered my mum to bring me there every weekend, and eventually camped inside AMK library everyday after school.
- Make them love the library - My primary 4 English teacher brings us to the school library everyday after the exams, and we played word games, run amok, read, clean, dust and organise the books there, making it our sanctuary from the dreary classroom.
- Give book prizes - I got a 3-in-1 Agatha Christie mystery stories tome in P5 I think. It's a big book for a primary school student to read, but that challenge made me who I am today.
- Provide a variety for reading - everything from popular science, fiction, poetry, magazines.
So 'The Departed' won its director an Oscar, while 'Infernal Affairs' didn't even make it for the running when it was out. Shame on the Western world for valuing a pirated movie. Is it cos the leads in 'The Departed' got blond hair?
"The Naked Truth about Nudes"
The government deemed it inappropriate for an art gallery to show a nude painting out in the open, gallery withdrew it, ST then writes an article about it and splashes 2 full broadsheets of nude paintings right in the middle of Lifestyle, for everyone big and small in the household to appreciate. Maybe ST should be fined big time for wilfully showing pornography?
