Can Spore men be house husbands?
No they can't
This is just the fact that Singaporean men lose life skills as they are pampered and spoiled by having maids when they themselves were children. This is due to Singapore's lowest fertility rate. Women Rights group AWARE is calling for government to support gender equality and 2 weeks paternity leave. Personally, I feel that husbands or fathers should have some time of paternity to use it to take care of their children so that they will be able to help their mothers to nurture and take care of their children when they are much younger.

Rising from the Ashes
It is about how Indonesian villagers try to rebuild their homes after Mount Merapi erupted last October. It recounts their experiences and the troubles they have to go through. I hope many people living around the world will be able to help donate and help this people return back to their normal lives even after eruption devastatated their homes and many of their livelihood(crops).

Where Next?
After Tunisia and Egypt, mass protests have erupted in Algeria causing politicians in the region the jitters. The Tunisia rebellion that happened on January 14 which led to President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali's fight from power was set off after Mohamed Bouazizi burned himself to death to protest being humiliated by police. Egypt continue to face protests where protesters vowed to stay camped in central Cairo Square until their demands for democracy will be met.

Looking at the world in ruins, I really do hope and pray that it will get better soon.Signing Off, Caleb
