ISSUE I

Ladies and gentlemen, the truth is out! Veritas Post, the highly-anticipated blog, is finally ready. Veritas, the motto of Harvard University, is latin for truth. In this blog, the truth is considered as a sacred entity, and the chief editor will try his best to write the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

But of course, the truth cannot be complete all the time, even in a courtroom. In order to protect the identity of some people, pseudonyms will be used occasionally. Such pseudonyms obviously should refer to some specific individuals, but the chief editor is advising all readers not to jump to conclusions. The chief editor must emphasize once again that Chapter IV of the Constitution of Singapore declares and guarantees the entitlement of freedom of speech and opinion to the citizens of Singapore. A resident attorney-at-law will be employed to advise the chief editor on legal matters, so as to avoid unnecessary complications or lawsuits. Our maxim is that everyone is entitled his or her freedom to read what he or she wants, and in so doing, should not be offended by what he or she chooses to read. Censorship is an insult to man's intelligence, so DO NOT expect the chief editor to censor the articles and conceal the truth. While this blog MAY incur the wrath of various individuals, please rest assured that slanderous or derogatory remarks which are not based on evidence will not be used to lampoon or ridicule any individual. Any offensive remarks will be backed by evidence and the truth.

This blog will reflect on social happenings, school life, current affairs, history, and any other issues worth reflecting upon. This blog will include thorough examinations of specific individuals. The chief editor may, from time to time, add in tidbits of his personal life into this blog. The chief editor also warmly welcomes any comments on this blog.

Once again, welcome to Veritas Post. Veritas vos liberabit!
