Pse, u think they won't make special concession for a champion Olympian? Probably make him coach soldiers to swim and/or continue training as part of his national service.

nixorn Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 From wiki : Quote Lloyd Oscar Valberg (14 April 1922 – 26 March 1997) was the first ever representative from Singapore to compete at the Olympics when he went to the 1948 Summer Olympic Games held in London, United Kingdom. He took up the high jump when he was 17, and in 1947 he broke the Singapore record with a jump of 1.87m. He qualified for the high jump final at the 1948 Summer Olympics where he finally finished 14th. Representing Malaya, he finished seventh in the 1950 British Empire Games 120 yards hurdles and eleventh in the high jump. He finished third in the 110 metres hurdles at the 1951 Asian Games, while representing Singapore. He is also Grand-Uncle to Singapore's first Olympic Gold medallist Joseph Schooling who beat Michael Phelps in the 100m Butterfly in the 2016 Rio Olympics. It was Lloyd who inspired Joseph Schooling to compete in the Olympics. http://eresources.nlb.gov.sg/history/events/98db39fe-8238-4e69-aca7-21eeda58dc59 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His mum May is a singaporean Pr, a Chinese Malaysian; while his dad Colin, was born in Singapore and educated at Raffles Institution.

Because the cost of screening Olympics year after year is higher and higher and higher, like cost of living. Broadcaster is not someone we can control, and maybe they asked for more than expected and keep raising the price because they know Singapore got money to spend.

The shortest individual race in Phelps’s Olympic program has always been his toughest. His three consecutive victories, starting at the 2004 Games in Athens, came by a total margin of 28-hundredths of a second. In his previous three finals, Phelps had never been better than fifth after the first 50. In Friday night’s final, he turned sixth, more than a half-second behind the leader, Joseph Schooling of Singapore, a rising junior and all-American swimmer at Texas. Phelps chased Schooling in the last 50, but Schooling could not be caught. He clocked a 50.39, faster than Phelps swam in any of his Olympic victories. Continue reading the main story Photo CreditJames Hill for The New York Times “As a kid I wanted to be like him,” said Schooling, who got his photograph taken with Phelps before his eight-gold-medal performance at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing. “It’s crazy to think of what happens in eight years,” Schooling said, adding: “A lot of this is because of Michael. He’s the reason I wanted to be a better swimmer.” Phelps tied for second with Laszlo Cseh and Chad le Clos in 51.14. How fitting. Phelps has been racing against the 30-year-old Cseh for over a decade. His rivalry with le Clos, while shorter in duration, has been more intense. Le Clos handed Phelps his first butterfly defeat at the Olympics in the 200 in 2012. Continue reading the main story Photo Michael Phelps. CreditDoug Mills/The New York Times At le Clos’s suggestion, the silver medalists interlocked hands and raised their arms like relay members as they stepped to the medals podium. “I think it was a great thing because we are good friends and we have a long history together,” Cseh said. “It was right to do that.” The degree of difficulty for Phelps, 31, as he tried to win a fourth consecutive Olympic title was compounded by the cumulative fatigue from his gold medal turns this week in two relays, the 200 butterfly and the 200 individual medley. His legs felt leaden, but his heart was light. After two years of hard labor in the pool and harder self-reflective work out of it, Phelps said, “I’m enjoying the sport like I did when I was an 18-year-old.” Continue reading the main story Photo CreditDoug Mills/The New York Times Photo CreditFrancois-Xavier Marit/Agence France-Presse — Getty Images. Continue reading the main story Photo CreditAthit Perawongmetha/Reuters He brought to the two-lap race, his 62nd swim in Olympic competition and his last in an individual event, an appetite for the fight and an acceptance of whatever outcome was in the stars. Phelps took comfort in knowing he had put in the work and prepared well, in contrast with his haphazard, halfhearted approach to the 2012 London Games, where he relied on guile and guts to win six medals, including four golds. “I’ve been able to stand on the block and say I’ve done everything I could to prepare myself, and that’s all that matters,” Phelps said.

Animations show freestyle stroke for clarity. By MILES PEYTON and DEREK WATKINS Length 1 of 2 At the postrace news conference, Phelps sat next to Schooling. After answering several questions directed at him, Phelps playfully protested. “Joe should be getting most of the questions,” he said. “He just won a gold medal.” Phelps said he was proud of Schooling. Seeing his time gave Phelps permission to retire. The next generation is all right. “Being able to close the door on the sport the way I wanted to, that’s why I’m happy right now,” he said. After his 200 I.M. final/100 butterfly semifinal Thursday, Phelps said: “I kind of knew when I first started coming back that it wasn’t going to be an easy process. I was going to have to force myself to go through pain that maybe I really didn’t want to do. I was at a point in my life where I was ready to do that, and willing to do that.” Continue reading the main story Photo CreditJames Hill for The New York Times With 26 Olympic medals, including 22 golds, Phelps stepped on the blocks knowing that win or lose, he had achieved more than would have seemed possible in 2000, when he was a lantern-jawed 15-year-old finishing fifth in his first Olympic final. “I think the biggest thing for me is I’ve kind of been able to finish the way I wanted to,” he said. “I’ve been able to come back, and I’ve been able to accomplish things that I just dreamt of.” The appreciative crowd at Olympic Aquatics Stadium, which greeted him with sustained applause, included Phelps’s fiancée, Nicole Johnson, and the couple’s 3-month-old, Boomer, who was somehow able to sleep despite the din.

Willy Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 SINGAPORE: Newly crowned Olympic champion Joseph Schooling will arrive in Singapore on Monday morning (Aug 15). According to officials from the Singapore National Olympic Council (SNOC), Schooling will be travelling via Singapore Airlines and is set to touch down at about 5.30am. The 21-year-old Singaporean clinched gold in the 100m butterfly event after touching the wall in 50.39s, nearly one second ahead of an extraordinary joint-silver finish of 51.14s shared by American great Michael Phelps, South Africa's Chad le Clos and Hungarian Laszlo Cseh. This is the first time at Rio 2016 that Phelps, who won the 100m butterfly at the past three Olympics, has been beaten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wah... made me so proud. Not that I want to politicize this, but I really wonder what does Grace Fu have to say for now after this? http://www.straitstimes.com/sport/olympics-minister-fu-says-decision-to-not-telecast-live-action-from-rio-is-commercial-one As the Minister for Culture, Community and Youth, she couldn't even be bothered to fight for the rights to have this broadcast live in Singapore at the beginning. She instead took the fxxking easy way out to say "it's a commercial negotiation." And now, we managed to watch Joseph Schooling take the OLYMPICS GOLD MEDAL live on stage which made the entire nation proud, I really wonder what she has to say now? I only wish none of those MIW go to Changi Airport to pose for picture with Schooling when he returns, just to pretend as if they did something big for him to make him the pride of our nation, when they didn't even want to step in to let the entire nation watch Schooling win the Gold medal live at the beginning.

Not to mention his efforts put in also far exceeds any other NSF/reservist. He has brought far more pride to the nation than any other NSFs had.
