Was reading Ed's blog regarding Prof Lee Wei Ling's rebuttal. Which prompted me to visit the
url he provided: http://www.todayonline.com/articles/170703.asp
The Paragraph below is my personal favourite taken from the above article.
"Lt-Gen Lim goes on to ask: "Why must it be that Singaporeans cannot be world-beaters?" My answer to that is: Singaporeans can be world-beaters — if Singapore has the appropriate research strategy and concentrates effort and resources on the areas where we have a competitive advantage. The Singapore Olympic Council seems to understand this simple concept which escapes the highly intellectual officials determining the direction of Singapore's research strategy."
I must say I really admire how she throws them off the hook regarding those biomedical research issues.
