I just came back from a trip to Hong Kong and I met up with some representatives from SOCO, and they told me about Homeless FC. Visited your website now that I’m back in Singapore, and I will like to commend you for some fabulous films and documentaries you have done! Oh, and some of the writing in your blogs is beautiful, you really have an ability to tell a story. Keep up the good work, maybe one day, we will be able to work on a project together.

Thanks, Ian. It was a real privilege making Homeless FC. The social workers at SoCO were truly inspiring. Glad you got to meet them.

Hi Lynn and James,
I just about your unfortunate incident with the Internal Investigations and i have to say i am both appalled and am not surprised that something like this is happening.It sounds like a sad case of bullying a person into “confessing” to a “crime” they didn’t do and tat it looks like the case of guilty until proven guilty.I know if it were me,i’d be seriously traumatized,especially where they asked for your password to your email account,just wondering,do they have ANY legal right to ask it at all?Its sad that journalism in Singapore has been so heavily..censored.

Dear Lynn,
It is awful how some people have to act like animals preying to make a meal out of others. Well, they have the big white baboon to thank. In addition, they have committed a great sacrilege in the form of unwholesome act of not having a Right Livelihood and according to Karma is set bound or Avici Hell. And that’s no designer paradise.
So stay brave, though these are words, but there are still a lot of decent moral people here and around the world who has enough decency and hopefully influence to stop police intimidation and brutality, which work to only keep some inhumane tyrannosauruses in power.

I just stumbled upon your site, and I got to say, that is some good read.
I like your blogs, personally, I feel the contents are right on point.
Anyway, nice documentaries. Kept me occupied during the hazy weekends.
