When Harry Redknapp took over at my beloved Tottenham Hotspur (Spurs to the rest of you who know very little about Barclays Premier League), in the autimn of 2008, it was not the most popular choice but was better than anything as we were rock bottom, with 2 points from 8 games and definitely staring relegation at the end of a 9 month season. This was not good. There was a lukewarm reception from us Spurs fans about Harry’s appointment.

Communications in Asia is a tricky business, just ask any expatriate living in Asia, and you will hear their comical
News reports over a last 5 days (and counting) have been reporting on the late Mrs Kwa Geok Choo. Many are surprised by the love she shared with Minister Mentor. The couple have been together and supported each other for 63 years. So why the surprise?! Just when I thought the news once again was going to be another solemn affair, I was thrilled to read that Singapore had won two more medals in the Commonwealth Games 2010. Congratulations to the winners!
Singapore may be a small country, but the communications landscape is a broad and diverse one.
One must remember when practicing public relations that the political, economical and social impact of their practices should always be considered.
