  SINGAPORE: Senior Minister of State for Law and Home Affairs, Associate Professor Ho Peng Kee announced he will be retiring from politics at the end of this term.
  
  In a statement to the media, he said he would have completed four terms by then.
  
  Associate Professor Ho said it has been a very fulfilling and satisfying time for him, both on the ground in Nee Soon East as well as in the many offices he has held.
  
  He said he informed the Prime Minister that he would like to retire from politics some time last year.
  
  And he said he is glad that the Prime Minister has agreed.
  
  While he has no intentions to become a missionary after leaving politics, Associate Professor Ho said he would certainly be more active in Church as an elder.
  
  He does not intend to return to teach full-time at the NUS Law Faculty, but hope to do some part-time teaching there.
  
  Associate Professor Ho said he would also continue to support important causes like promoting sports, nurturing voluntarism and helping youths to realise their potential, all of which he said he had espoused consistently all these 20 years in public service.

  Another one bites the dust. Another one bites the dust. And another one gone and another one gone. Another one bites the dust. Hey I'm gonna get you too. Another one bites the dust.

  Abandon Ship!

  The S.S. Nvrsnks is going down, and who is always first off a sinking ship?  The rats!

  Abandon Ship is the new game in which you play to move your group of rats off the ship before the rising water drowns your furry friends. The Nvrsnks is also loaded with valuable points-earning cheese, but don’t let desire for that lovely food send your rats to the watery depths. The water level is rising, get to the boats!

  In Abandon Ship, your opponents may also share some of the rats in your group, making for exciting decisions as they may want to move the rats in a different manner than you.  Will their plan send yours into the drink?  With easy rules and strategic gameplay, Abandon Ship is a great new game for the whole family!

  Age 10+
  Players 3-7
  Duration 30-45 Minutes

  Finally served my terms and got my pension, caught the huge pay increase and 12 month bonus payout.

  Time for me to shake leg as a non-executive director before they expend all the money.
