Among the more rewarding aspects of foreign travel is the time and opportunity one gets to peruse newspapers of different countries.Having read and heard many a choice insult in my time, my attention was grabbed by the headline "Worst Insult Possible" on the front page of The Straits Times when I transited through Singapore yesterday.
The news item quoted Singapore High Court Justice Judith Prakash as saying that the conduct of three men who wore T-shirts depicting a kangaroo dressed in judges' robes at a High Court hearing last November, implying that the court system in Singapore was a "kangaroo court", was the worst form of insult to the judiciary.
