I think that JR Tolkien's estate will be suing prata man for copyright infringement soon. He thinks he is an apuneh Hobbit. Well, he has the same short height, the same appetite for food, and the same hairy stinky feet. He should be called Nathan the Hobbit from now on. I wonder whether the NLB will ban this pagan book about a Tamil Hobbit too?

SINGAPORE - A Tamil-language version of former President S R Nathan's memoirs was launched at the Sri Srinivasa Perumal Temple in Little India on Saturday morning. The translation of the English publication - first released in 2011 and titled "An Unexpected Journey: Path to the Presidency" - was a result of a year-long effort undertaken by Mr A Palaniappan, the Head Specialist (English/Tamil) at the Language Services Department in Parliament. The event was attended by more than 300 guests, which included Minister for Foreign Affairs and Minister for Law K Shanmugam. Tamil Murasu, the Tamil-language daily of Singapore Press Holdings, sponsored the translating and publishing costs, as a gift for the Tamil community. - See more at: http://www.straitstimes.com/news/sin....ykbdhAgo.dpuf
