Yo! My team is at Funan Digital Life Mall , competing in Inter-school E-Gaming Challenge , Defence of The Ancients ( DotA ).I've been playing this game for quite long...and it is rather a competitive game, Strategic and very popular among teens now.It requires alot of skill and Team-Play in this game to be Victorious. Most importantly, TeamWork and Team Spirit. This is one of the pictures taken by the Photographer there...I just wana share abit of myself in this blog. My team got into the DotA semi-finals but lost... We had to fight for 3rd and 4th placing. GMSS Vs Yishun JC Unfortunately, lost too. My team members are XiZhe(Gek), Eugene(Gwee), Leroy , ZiXiang(SiAo) and Zhi Xiong(Sky.Chord), though there were to rewards for getting 4th..but we were really happy as we are the only Secondary School that got into the semi-finals!Let's add in more life into this Blog...it's rather inactive now.

Hi Hope 3-1A. Can you please do your corrections at home so that we don't have to waste time copying in class.
Answers to Assignment 2.1 - Governance in Singapore.
Study 1. Source A. What does the source tell you about the benefits of having a set of principles in governments? [5]
Source A tells me that having a set of principles would, …enable a government's effectiveness (Inference) This is evident in Source A, which states that “Successful governance must have at its core a set of principles or values that are enduring and relevant to the people living in that society.” (Support) This implies that if a government follows an infallible set of guidelines, it will not fail at performing its duties. (Explanation)
Source A also tells me that having a set of principles would help the government to make right decisions at all times (Inference). This is evident in Source A, which states that “Strategies and tactics may change, but principles are anchors that give governments a firm footing even in uncertain or turbulent times.”(Support) This means that as long as the government abides to a set of good guidelines it sets for itself, it would be able to serve the nation well in whatever situation/ regardless of the situation.(Explanation)
2. Study Source B. What does the source tell you about the qualities of leadership that a country should look for? [5]
Source B tells me that a country should look for leaders who have foresight and can encourage and move Singaporeans into success. (Inference)This is evident in Source B, which states that “a convincing vision that will inspire Singaporeans and mobilise them to achieve their best for the country.” (Support)This means that a country may lack behind in terms of development when they lack a visionary leader. (Explanation)
Source B also tells me that a country should look for upright and righteous leaders who are willing to admit their mistakes and stay relevant to society. (Inference)This is evident in Source B, which states that "We need leaders who will do what is right, and not necessarily what is popular. They must have the moral courage and integrity to acknowledge and correct past mistakes, and recognise when an existing policy has outlived its usefulness and must be discarded or changed." (Support) This means that leaders must be willing to make changes and keep up with the times. (Explanation)
3. Study Source B. In your opinion, what are the consequences if ‘good leadership’ is absent in a country? Explain your answer. [5]
In my opinion, the country will certainly not progress far. A good leader must have the moral courage and integrity to make the right decisions. Without which, there will be instability and corruption. Secondly, good leaders must anticipate change and stay relevant in society. An absence of the quality may also result in the country becoming backward and lacking behind others. Next, a good government rewards people according to their hard work regardless of race, language and religion. If not, there may be inequality and injustice. Finally, the country will not be effective if the government do not make the people feel a sense of belonging to the country.
