Cool Mum Super Dad

I was in Singapore on 31st October 2009 to run two programmes. One at Kg Siglap Mosque (in the morning) and another at MPH Raffles City (in the afternoon).  Although Singapore is just next to Malaysia and we share many similar concerns, I could tell that the issues are not exactly the same.  The pressure for students to excel in academics is greater in Singapore and the  government provides incentives for students to achieve their best. Allocations are made to allow deserving students to have overseas trips.  Ahmad Fakhri came along and had his say during the event at Kg Siglap and the organisers found  this interesting indeed.  It’s the first time they ever had a husband and wife team handling a workshop together.  As much as possible, I try to rope in Ahmad Fakhri because fathers, I believe, play a unique role in child rearing.
