The biography sheds light on the life and times of famed gynecologist and nationalist Dr Charles Paglar (1894-1954). Hailed as a benefactor by many and blamed by some for leading members of the Eurasian community to Bahau in Negri Sembilan, Malaysia, during the Japanese Occupation, he remains an enigmatic figure in the long gaze of history.

The MOE Bridging Programme 2009 was conducted over 4 weeks, from 24 Nov to 18 Dec. There were 15 host schools evenly spread out in different areas of Singapore for the convenience of the students. This year, the SHGs expanded the Bridging Programme to reach out to more pre-school children from lower-income families who have not attended pre-school education or not being ready for Primary education with the necessary school readiness skills. Based on the recommendations from the Kindergartens, there were 277 students who participated in the programme, of which 3 were Eurasian students.
