  • National Day Babies: Four Families Welcomed 3 Boys and 1 Girl

    National Day Babies: Four Families Welcomed 3 Boys and 1 Girl

    SINGAPORE- Singaporeans may be getting ready for a big national day party, but several families started celebrations early.

    At least four mothers gave birth to their new babies at midnight Saturday, marking the start of Singapore’s 49th birthday.

    Mrs Melissa Fathie was one of them. She gave birth to Elijah Fathie, a 2.9kg baby boy. “I was shocked, we thought he would be born maybe 10 or 11pm or Aug 8,” she said. Her labour contractions started at about 9pm, when she was rushed to Thomson Medical Centre. She had been given a pill to induce the birth earlier in the day as the baby was growing quite heavy in her tummy. Any bigger and the it would be “difficult for the mother to push”, said husband Muhamad Fathie, 37.

    At Parkway East, Mrs Suhailah Said gave birth to her first baby girl 20 seconds after midnight. At Mount Alvernia Hospital, lucky baby boy Logan was born to parents Brandon and Emmeline Lim. At Raffles Hospital, a 2.95kg bundle of joy, Akif Rifqy Fadzil, was born to parents Amirah Mazlan and Fadzil Sultan.

    Mrs Fathie has given birth to two daughters seven-year-old Deirdra and a four-year-old Isabelle. But Elijah’s was the hardest so far, she said. “I wanted an epidural but there was no time for that,” the property agent said. Still, when she heard son’s first cry, she was overwhelmed with joy. “It always feels like the first time,” the 35-year-old said.

    The Fathie family will be catching the National Day Parade tonight at the ward in Thomson Medical Centre. Said Mr Fathie: “My son will know that there will be fireworks to celebrate his birthday every year. It could not be more fantastic.”

  • Sekolah Larang Pakai Hijab Pada Sambutan Hari Kebangsaan Walaupun Tidak Beruniform

    Sekolah Larang Pakai Hijab Pada Sambutan Hari Kebangsaan Walaupun Tidak Beruniform

    singapore national day

    Assalamu’alaikum…. haaaahhh…. hari ni saya nak luahkan perasaan sedih… Hari ni adalah hari sambutan hari kebangsaan singapura (sengaja xmo letak caps) di semua sekolah.

    So, hari ini semua pelajar boleh pakai fesyen apa sahaja asalkan merah dan putih. So anak saya pakai lah T shirt merah dan putih berserta seluar panjang putih dan tudung putih. Masa assembly, ada satu teacher cina tu, suruh dia bukak tudung dgn alasan tudung tak dibenarkan di sekolah.

    Persoalannya, saya faham, tudung is not part of the school uniform. Anak saya tak pakai school uniform pun… baju luar… merah dan putih… Free Fashion…. tahun lepas pun sama tapi tak ada masalah pun… form teacher pun tak suruh bukak…

    Saya dah email pada sch principal mintak teacher ni difahamkan … saya tanya sekali.. ni teacher ada masalah ke dengan Malay Muslim…

    Saya harap perkara ni dapat diselesaikan dengan tenang… saya cuma curhat je di sini… tak paham ah bangsa mereka ni… Free Fashion pun nak control ke???

    The sch name is Zhenghua Primary… En Zainal MP dah bantu saya speak to VP. VP was not aware of this… saya reply, saya tak kisah lah kalau sekolah tu bagi surat, bagitau dgn parents no head gears is allowed. ok fine… anak saya pakai uniform je kalau gitu kan… mcm nurse … saya dulu pun gitu, gi sekolah bertudung sampai sekolah bukak lah pakai uniform… tak der masalah pun… saja je teacher bangang agaknya.

    VP baru call… dia apologize.. kisahnya sebenar, this Mdm Teng Litan ni, waktu she demanded my daughter to take off her tudung, ada satu lagi teacher intervene asking her to refer to Mr Faisal sbb Mr Faisal ni is the in charge of the Muslim Affair student kt sklh tu… but she did not do that… so bila MP called to inform the school, she peng story kata, she tak demand cuma request je… i snubbed back la… kalau request, suara tak kan tegas garang sampai budak tu takut lalu bukak tudung… I asked the VP, so if Insyirah did not take off her tudung, will Mdm Teng take disciplinary action against her? That was the implication she gave to my daughter… The VP apologize banyak banyak kali.

    I also mentioned that kalau tak mo bagi pakai head gear, then tulis surat clearly state that no head gears are allowed. Saya akan suruh anak saya pakai uniform je… lagipun saya cakap, head gears utk anak saya tu, sbb kan dia suka fesyen bertudung… tak der kena mengena dgn agama pun… saya galakkan je lah.. lagipun dah kebetulan satu tuntutan agama… so tak payahlah saya nak nasihat kan dia suruh pakai tudung kan…
