Sun we are proud of you!

Hi guys!

I'm sure you have all heard Sun's latest English single "Chinawine". Personally, i find that it is a great song to listen to, and i believe that you will like it as well.

I just want to comment in response to the uncomplimentary remarks made by the "newpaper "and "Wanpao" last week. Firstly, as a recording artiste, i do not feel that she is inappropriately dressed. In all our judgments, we should always consider the context of which the situation is based upon. I mean, you will get one tight slap from your teacher if you wore that to school, however, this is not a school, nor is it a nursery where everything is so sanitized that it smells of teletubbies. Let's just grow up and understand that it is appropriate for the culture in U.S.

Secondly, you should look beyond the superficial and listen to the message. Chinawine is a song about how girls should not cheapen themselves and engage in promiscuous acts.

Thirdly, instead of celebrating her success as the ONLY ASIAN to really have success in Hollywood. Remember how Rain, Coco Lee, Fann Wong, and to an extent, Jackie Chan faired there? SUN is the only artiste to top the U.S. billboard charts. Instead of applauding her for her achievements, critics are just only too eager to sharpen their forked tongues and slam her just because she strive for excellence on the international arena?

How long do we Singaporeans want to be stuck in our mud of mediocrity and look through our myopic scope from within our tiny wells? Instead let us start to think global, for the world is too big for us to dream for peanuts all the time. The sky is our limit. And it certainly lies beyond Changi Airport.

In the meantime, enjoy her song. Critics, eat your heart out!
