Math Kaki

The name of the K–12 Singapore math project that aims to help students who are struggling with school math but can’t afford private tuition, or to prevent the unmotivated ones from dropping the world’s most disliked school subject because they are allergic to the teaching style of their teacher or tutor—“kaki” is the Singlish word to describe a close friend or a buddy.

Unlike teachers employed by self-help groups, who tend to be of the same race as that of the students, volunteers from Math Kaki come from all racial groups and economic backgrounds, who have a heart to raise the mathematical proficiency level of those under their charge, regardless of their race, religion, or orientation.

Mask the Math

When rogue, inept, or corrupt opportunistic politicians downplay the high number of infections and fatalities plaguing their countries, by giving an oft-innumerate or gullible public a faux sense of security, who often loosely follow the health measures in place.

Fake right-wing “leaders” from the United States, Brazil, and India notoriously share a number of common denominators: use race or religion as a trump card, mask the math, and refuse to make social distancing or mask wearing mandatory.
