read all ur respond.
so funny.
August 25th, 2009 at 10:41 pm
Most nuffnang bloggers are of the English speaking background. Perhaps the sponsor is looking at the wrong avenue for such a programme.
On the other hand such language requirements are quite common in the private sector when looking for jobs, so we should not act all surprised.
August 26th, 2009 at 10:12 pm
Oh? no age limit? er… YAY~
BUT… the prob IS… I CANT SKIP SPM >
August 27th, 2009 at 3:24 pm
WOW! How I wish I can, too bad I have classes to attend twice a week else I will be able to commit to it. Unless I’m allowed to come back to my hometown twice a week to attend my classes since it’s only about 1 hour and 5 minutes flight from my home to Singapore and there are plenty of flight coming in and out everyday and traveling to the airport doesn’t take much time also.
