WHY NOT S'PORE?: On April 21, the Olympic torch was passed to Malaysia's astronaut Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor in Kuala Lumpur. It went on to Indonesia, bypassing Singapore. -- PHOTO: REUTERS

I AM very proud that Singapore has achieved much and were chosen to host the Youth Olympics. But sadly, Singaporeans must travel to Kuala Lumpur to welcome the Olympic torch.
What a shame. Can the Singapore National Olympic Council explain why the torch is travelling from Bangkok to Kuala Lumpur and on to Indonesia, bypassing Singapore?
