My old mini-compo

Wife was doing some culling and packing, and I was reminded of this hifi set. This box is 22 years old. The hifi is gone but the box remains.

The JVC UX-V10GN was a major part of our home in the early days of our marriage. I think I got the mini-compo free by redeeming some points from my credit card or something. Oh, I remember now. I redeemed it with my Shell points saved up from pumping petrol back in the days I had a car.

It was very fancy for its time. The compact disc loaded vertically. Sound was decent too. Auto Reverse cassette deck leh.
The box now holds our winter clothes, which has not seen action for more than 2 years now.

My wife is so gonna scold me for showing the messy bits of our home.

Keynote at SPED Learning Festival 2021

I was very honoured to give the keynote at the SPED Learning Festival 2021 on the 21st of November 2021, and sharing the stage with MOS Sun Xueling and DSEN Lucy Toh.

It was a meaningful time sharing my journey as a parent of a special needs child, and discussing SPED issues with the 3,000 online participants from the education and SPED fraternity.

Thank you all for having me today. May we create a future of hope and love for our special needs students together.
