Goh Pei Ming's son finishes PSLE, but has to solve 'final Math question' to unlock laptop
The Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE) might be over, but this Primary 6 student had one final Math question to solve — this time, to unlock his laptop. Senior Minister of State for Social and Family Development Goh Pei Ming posed the challenge to his son in a heartfelt letter which was shared to social media on Wednesday (Sept 30)."You've earned a good break and your laptop back. Just one small problem. It has a six-digit PIN," Goh said in the note.To obtain the password to his laptop, the boy had to complete the Math problem, which was inspired by one of this year's PSLE Mathematics question — a reference that parents of Primary 6 children would likely recognise.Goh, who is MP for Marine Parade-Braddell Heights, explained in his post that he was unable to be there in person when his son sat for his final paper as he had to leave on a work trip.Hence, he decided to leave his son a little something to remember the occasion by.But beyond the playful challenge was a heartfelt message from Goh, who wanted his son to know that his efforts had not gone unnoticed.
