Give MSW 09 Ris Low a break
-
This poor girl deserve a break. I am no fan of hers and in no way I condone her action. I think she must have suffered a lot and enough, being blasted for her lousy english and now offences. She is even dignosed with bipolar disorder.
Anyway she is just 19 years old and her halting english speaks so much of her maturity, her words are taken out of context due to her poor diction and articulation and such I do empathised with her, and I think I do understand why she said it took her a lot of courage to let go of her past and chase her dream to start a new life.
-
Who ask her to go and cheat?
Haven earn money, already involved in credit card fraud. Go buy LV or Prada is it?
-
its called karma.
-
well. at least for me. i do believe in it. haha.
cheat money, considered a sin. so punished lo.
-
agree with OP. stop shooting her just because we have nothing better to do. not everyone in singapore can speak queen's english, and as OP said, courageous of her to try doing something worthwhile.
-
I agree, she deserves to be given a break because she is still young and she tries her best.
-
Give her a break for her english - Yes.
Give her a break for breaking the law? - I don't think so.
She being blasted on forums like these for flouting the law is understandable. Any common criminal will know that their acts are unacceptable, and these "blastings" are just the tip of the iceberg. Sad truth is that, her case is publicized due to the fact that she is a public figure - even more so as a Miss Universe contestant. And she knows it.
But the controversy lies within the fact that she was convicted BEFORE attaining the title; shouldn't she have known that as a person with a criminal record is not allowed to take part in the competition?
Hmm...
-
I reckon that she listen to this, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMvrNO9fUM0
-
i don't even think she is pretty..
i seriously think all the judge is BLIND!
-
I believe nobody thinks she is pretty either. moreover, she is two-dimensional from my opinion...
The judges... Rumors has it that they were somehow under a certain form of pressure asserted from someone powerful in the pagaent who is believed to be related to Boomz.
Well, have a boomsful day guys...
-
I bet that seancannot is either Ris Low or someone that knows her
-
But she has pretty leopard preens :(

whats leopard preens?just because TS english is better than her it doesn't mean that she can't ask someone to type for her or use the spelling function in Microsoft Word to correct it first before copy and paste into sgforum

Thats a good one!
Leopard preens is a (sub)meme, because of what she said during a fashion interview.

Go watch that interview again.
Out of curiousity, I googled the word "boomz". My oh my, try that out and you'll see.
-
Nobody would have chastised her if not for the fact that she IS a representative of Singapore. Do you want someone of dubious character to represent you?
I hope people think before jumping on the 'act hero' bandwagon and defend senselessly.
Sure, we are all humans and we make mistakes too (some of us grevious ones) but we didn't join MSW, no?

hmm. but even ex drug addicts, ex prisoners, ex murders, ex rapist etc are given a second chance so why can't we give Ris Low a second chance?

well.. from what i think...
rapist/drug addict/prisoner.. they are a disgrace towards themselves and their family.
But Ris Low case, she is considered a disgrace to sg. As it impacts more ppl, the repercussions are harsher.

chinese got a saying meaning, u know this day will come, then why u do it?
since she know she cheated, why she still go join the competition? why still get famous? so she is already prepared for all these... so dun defend her...
-
