.... first their plane was hit by Russia. Now they are having a conflict with North Korea. I feel sorry for Malaysia. Seems out of nowhere they get into trouble.

One thing I'll say is that I am IMPRESSED with Malaysia's backbone. As a foreign friend of Malaysia I admire their push back against the DPRK (and of course China). This singular event has brought Malaysians together in a way I've not seen before.
I not lawyer/teacher/CPA.
You've been arrested? Law Society of Singapore can provide referrals.
You want an International School job? School website or

Your rugrat needs a School? Avoid for profit schools
You need Tax advice? Ask a CPA
You ran away without doing NS? Shame on you!

Didn't know until now that there exist an official account which explicitly accused the "Russian" for shooting down the MH17 ?
Perhaps N Korean may *try* to make another MH flight disappeared again, mid-lfight...literally.

I think views differ on the cause, depending on whether you are Russian or the rest of the world.
