Wendy Lui

Wendy Lui is in town today. She called to talk. Unfortunately, she is very busy and we cannot meet as she need to do the necessary networking. She is a great gal trying to get pregnant and unsuccessful as she is hardly home. In the last three weeks, she was in California, Sydney, China and now Singapore. She is based in Hong Kong. She may fly as often as a Singapore Girl.

Talking about Singapore Girl, she has been in the news recently. She has to get rid of her colonial past, today she is a Global Girl, she should not be demure, she should be demure, it is hard. I think everyone is pulling her in different directions. I wonder what will have if Singapore Airlines adopt the same rules as Nordstrom. From Boh Tong, the uncle with all the interesting SQ girls stories, we know SQ has about a hundred and one rules including what the girls can eat. Poor girl, it is hard to be a Singapore Girl with all the feminine qualities, tight sarong kebaya to accentuate their physical attributes, perpetual smiles and thank yous and certainlys for all a monthly paycheck. It is still a glamorous job.

Maybe we should write to CEO Singapore Airlines - just one rule is needed for the Singapore Girl "Use your good judgement in all situations. There are no other rules."
