    Congrats to all the successful students who wrote the various exams recently … especially to Yana Marisa, who is the daughter of a good friend of mine. I am prou of all of them, their parents and teachers … as a small nation we should do something to make the outstanding students ‘household names’ like we do for other endeavors such as sports … and better yet organise and deliver better awards to them, especially from the government and the private sector.
