National paddler Li Jiawei gives birth to baby boy
SINGAPORE : National paddler Li Jiawei gave birth to a baby boy on Tuesday.
Tian Rui was born at 9.22am in Thomson Medical Centre to proud parents Jiawei and her businessman husband Li Chao.
The table tennis player was married to Li Chao last September, and they had planned to have a baby before the next Olympics in 2012.
The name "Tian Rui", which loosely means "astute and far-sighted", reflects the parents' desire for their son to grow up bright and intelligent. And the couple have decided that their child will be a Singapore citizen.
Li Chao said: "Jiawei and I have a good impression of Singapore. Of course, Jiawei is also a Singapore citizen and hopes for the baby to be one too."
While the parents have not decided where their son will go to school, Jiawei already has her preference.
She said: "I hope he can be here in Singapore. I am going to return to table tennis training next year and I would like him to be with me. It is also good that Singapore has a bilingual education system."
In addition, the father hopes for his son to be exposed to more education systems, and not limited to those of China or Singapore.
And as for the couple's next bundle of joy, they said this will probably have to wait till after the 2012 Olympics.- CNA/ms

I thought she wanted to retire back to China with her hubby?Come back all the way here just to give birth?
Didn't know our citizenship is so enticing to them.They not scared the motherland get angry with them ah?Considering her hubby rice bowl is there one.
Still plenty of time for them and their son to decide whether he should/wants to do NS or not.
This month very happening.First we got a PR go back to serve motherland army,now we got one of them coming back to give birth...song boh?
