The New Face of Unaccredited Degree in Singapore

Just last month, I took down my Degree Mill site that I started more than a decade ago citing reasons that it was outdated plus the fact that I have not been maintaining it for some time. But in the recent months there were many discussions about degree mills and the unaccredited degrees. For the least I am glad that my fellow citizens in Singapore are beginning to be aware that there is such a thing call an unaccredited degree that equates to a worthless piece of paper.

Scouring through my old documents in my computer, I found an article from the now defunct "Project EyeBall" paper in 2001 about an article about unaccredited degree. The paper cited by website hosted at Pacific Internet. Another search on my page returns a list of results, many of which relates to the recent "PhD" holders from questionable universities that was listed in my "degree mill" sites. The forums hosted by Straits Times and respondents are actively contributing and denouncing the use of such degree that is not worth the paper it prints on. Sadly said that highly respected businessman and entrepreneur are flaunting their paper as if it would make their parents proud. Many throw parties bigger than their wedding day for their new piece of paper on their wall to show their education. I have greater respect for these enterprising men and women without their paper.

For this, I am starting this blog to bring back my site...
