The Postman’s gentle reminder

Dear all,

While the Internet is a democratic medium, there are still certain rules that needs to be followed. At tnppostman.com, we have just a few:

1. Please do not write or do anything that will contravene the laws of the Republic of Singapore. E.g. Defamation Act

2. Please refrain from making personal attacks to anyone on this website. Making snide remarks about a person’s appearance constitutes to a “personal attack”. This is a forum for intelligent discussion of matters related to sport, so let’s try to keep it that way.

Cheers,

Paralympics & Awards Cut Posers (See today’s New Paper 18 Sep) (Ernest co-hosts Paralympians on Razor.TV next day)

Hi all,

Pick up a copy of The New Paper today, to see the context behind the questions we’re asking you here.

1. Should Paralympians who win medals for Singapore get more in terms of monetary recognition, and why? (Eg. There’s $1 million for an Olympic individual gold medal, but just $100,000 for Yip Pin Xiu, who won a Paralympic gold medal on Monday in swimming)

2. What do you think of the 20 per cent cut for the Asian Games & Commonwealth Games monetary awards (for able-bodied athletes)? (Eg. Individual gold (before cut)=$250,000 but after cut=$200,000)

3. Also the new incentives for athletes who only break the Games records in the Asian and SEA Games ($50,000 and $5,000 respectively), and not at other events like the Olympics?

Cheers

IF I had a reputation I do believe I would ride on it. I was once told my by a wise old sage (no don’t be ridiculous it wasn’t Budgie) that there are three phases to your career: first you are paid to do, then you are paid to think and finally in the latter stages of your career you are paid simply for who you are.
