Yes, you missed any actual evidence. Everything you mention there is merely unsupported allegations, supposition, or non-evidentiary documentation. Not only is it decidedly not "overwhelming evidence" against Joe Biden - it's not any kind of evidence against him.
-
If Joe Biden is guilty of such "mega dishonesty," why is is that the House Oversight Committee, (with its broad jurisdictional and legislative authority and under the chairmanship of James Comer, who has made it his mission to unearth any wrongdoing by the President) has been unable to find a single shred of actual evidence against him?

I think you've actually got the situation reversed - while what you say may have been true back in the 60's, when the government started to encourage the teaching of English, the concern more recently was that English was becoming too dominant and that many Singaporeans were not achieving a good grasp of their mother tongue. Hence why the Ministry of Education has made it mandatory for all pupils to learn a mother tongue language (MTL) at school (unless they're of foreign heritage when they can choose a different second language). The MoE points out that it is important for students to learn an MTL so they can: There's a difference between the language of instruction for classes being English and pupils being banned from speaking any language other than English while at school. If you think they are banned from speaking other languages while at school, perhaps you can explain how they can learn an MTL in school without speaking it. Or even better, perhaps you could provide a link to that report saying other languages are banned at school.

It's not even true anyway, schoolchildren are not restricted to speaking only English in Singapore schools. In fact it's compulsory for schoolchildren there to learn (and therefore speak) a second "mother tongue" language in school, as shown in the link below. Learning a Mother Tongue Language in school

Even if true, that still wouldn't make it the official language. However I don't think it's true, given that Singapore's Ministry of Education official website says that it's compulsory for all students to learn a "mother tongue" language as part of their school studies. That would be a little tricky to manage, if they're not allowed to speak any of those languages on school property. Learning a Mother Tongue Language in school And as the article goes on to say:

OK, false alarm - at least as far the passport numbers go. I just realized I had a script blocker running in my browser designed to prevent malicious websites running code. After I changed the script blocker to allow all scripts on the immigration website, it stopped asking for passport numbers for people who are British citizens. However it does still say that it wants the names of all my wife's family members living in the UK including all in-laws, which is a new requirement as far as I'm aware.

I believe it's up to a year, actually. However that wouldn't save you from the fine for driving on an expired license if you get stopped.

Well, if the individual in question works for Grab for instance, it could be the case. Grab provides both food delivery and motorcycle taxi services. So a food delivery driver working for them, could also be taking paying passengers. Food delivery drivers working for other companies may possibly do the same.

My wife is filling in her application for a UK visit visa. This year they're asking for info about all family she has in the UK, including her in-laws. Altogether, with my four siblings, their spouses and my parents, it comes to ten people. All of them are British citizens, but the form seems to be designed for non-Brits as it asks about their "permission to be in the UK." Does anyone know if my wife really has to list all ten of her in-laws in the UK and supply all their passport numbers? (My parents, for instance, who are in their 90's, don't have current passports). Did anyone else's Thai partner, when filling out the application, supply this info about all their British in-laws?

In Hua Hin, it used to be 500 Baht and you got it straight away. Now it's free, but you have to wait three days. There was no mention of an option to pay and get it quicker. I would have taken that if available as I was renewing my driver's licence which had already expired and I didn't want to be driving around on an expired licence any longer than I had to.

If it was "orchestrated with the aim of price hike," then why, when the milk reappeared after a few days' absence was it either exactly the same price as before or even slightly cheaper for some brands?

Trump charged with four counts over 2020 election

As far as I'm aware, every article that was written about the Biden classified documents supports this. Here's the info from just one source, ABC News. Firstly, for the documents found at the Penn Center. Biden leaves questions unanswered on classified documents And for those found at his home in Wilmington: Classified documents found at Biden's Wilmington home -

Well, can one ever "know" anything? However I rather suspect that those parts that are based on actual documentary evidence in the possession of the prosecutors, and verbatim quotes given by witnesses under oath before the grand jury will indeed turn out to be facts.
