A pinched nerve between the 6th & 7th vertebrate due to an altercation between me and my mountain bike and a slope at MacRitchie back when I was in my mid 50's now limits my neck movement. Especially that little side to side movement. :lol:

Was never any good at it anyway. Too jerky looking. Like the old saying, White boys can't dance or play basketball. :lol:

Think of it like this. Get the boy's father to pay for good education in the Philippines. Refocus your motherly love on getting your child to excel in this environment, and then leverage this performance to see about coming to Singapore later.

When I migrated back home, after my studies, at my first work place, my then boss, who studied in Imperial College London, and very much English that the English ... noticed how i shook my head when I answered his questions .. being a very hands on boss, he pulled me aside and asked me .. "in my country, and where I did my studies, and wherever I travelled, shaking the head from left to right is NO, and Up and down is YES, now what the hell is shaking your head all over the place supposed to mean ??? "

I tried to tell him that a mix of up+down+left+right = maybe .. or "I AM LISTENING" .. (or so I think .. )

Got it, and had to unlearn my 'shakes' .. and now I see somebody's head going 360 degree, I feel more than a bit awed at the talent ..





PS: of course, my then boss word was sprinkled with a wee bit of French, he being a former ship captain and all .. his exact words are unprintable ..

I had response from ......... You must satisfy below conditions

Citizenship by descent

A person born outside Singapore on or after 15 May 2004, with at least one parent who is a Singaporean citizen, is a Singaporean citizen by descent. If the parent from whom the child derives citizenship is a Singaporean citizen by descent, the parent must have been resident in Singapore for a total of at least four years before the child's birth or a total of at least one year out of the five years immediately preceding the child's birth.[4]

A person born outside Singapore before 15 May 2004 will be a Singaporean citizen by descent only if his or her father was a Singaporean citizen by birth or by registration at the time of birth.

In all cases, children of Singaporean citizens born overseas will be granted Singaporean citizenship by descent only if they do not acquire citizenship of the country of their birth.

Are there any countries at all that don't grant citizenship to children born there when at least one of the parents are already citizens?

Sounds like the kid is out of luck:

Me thinks you are a bit sensitive .. when zz said 'out of luck' he didn't mean to call your child as 'unlucky'

Take it more like "no chance there" .. !!

Take it easy ..
