Our combined efforts to deal with the water challenge have turned our vulnerability into a strength,

to see what we can do to keep the numbers down permanently in Singapore.

I hope to bring all Singaporeans together, so that even though we may not all agree on this issue, we understand and respect each other's reasons and concerns, and can close ranks and move ahead.

I am always looking for a new challenge. Syracuse had everything I expected - great water, great facilities and excellent alumni support. It was a great foundation.

I always challenge myself. I get out in deep water and I always try to get back. But I get hung up. The audience never knows, but that's when I smile the most, when I show the most ivory.

But this is the water business. I figure it's always better to have enough water to challenge you than it is not to have enough.
