Great Stuff, its heart rendering to see that miss dotty is writing alongside Darkness. I never thought, I’ve live to see this day.
My hope for 2009, is we can see more the other ladies writing as well. I agree with Darkness take on “the evil power of one.” We should all be mindful of pledging allegiance to the idea of supporting ONLY one site, one party, one logic or one anything.
As Tan Kin lian rightly said, the key is diversification. More the merrier. Or what Darkness refers too as keeping it a multiplayer game.
Its great to see the Singapore Daily and Tomorrow SG carrying material that is different from the run of the mill stuff when we have been reading all these years.
Although, I have always been a regular reader of the online citizen. This article about the power of one has jolted me out of my reverie. I now see the world very differently. For one since I gone out from the single lane mindset of TOC, I have noticed there are so many good blogs out there, like Mr Wang, Yawning Bread, Molly Meek and even some new ones such as Mathias. Its important to support these writers as well. Otherwise there is a real danger we will end up with a one blog blogosphere. And we all know that serves the interest of no one except a few who believe they are the masters of the universe.
Thanks Singapore Daily for brightening our days. Thanks also for offering much more than the evil power of one can even do!

I would also like to politely ask whether Darkness 2009 and the lovely Miss Dotty would be interested in lending help to the retail industry in Singapore?
I happen to be a businessman and I am quiet free now, due to circumstances which I rather keep private.
I believe as some of you know Tang has gone virtual. I have consulted many in this industry and the name Darkness, keeps cropping up again and again in different circles.
I would very much appreciate it, if the webmaster here can give me a contact number or address to further my discussion with Mr Darkness 2009.
I assure you. I can make it worth your while.
I am very sure, given his wide knowledge of online affairs and indepth knowledge of the virtual domain. He would be able to add value to our retail industry in difficult times like this.
Many thanks/
Your very Sincerely

Pls note this is a sincere offer and I will follow up accordingly. I dont wish to come across as forward, but from my limited discussion with my daughters. I gather Darkness likes money. Please tell him, we will make it worth his while. I promise you all. Many thanks and sorry for breaking the discussion.

Those guys will never ever deal with strangers.
Never! They are the most inflexible human beings on this planet. If you think PAP is inflexible take the bro and multiply it a few billion times and you get the general idea, there is little point talking to stones.
You need someone who knows them well enough, like perhaps Inspirid, the site owner here or one of them to vouch or stand as guarantor for you.
Then they will cut a deal.
