　　資深新聞工作者鄭明杉在2021年推出了《頭家青春夢》，為108位「頭家」記錄少年織夢、壯年追夢、中年圓夢的心路歷程，引起了廣泛關注，也受到了各行業老闆的歡迎。不過，本地青少年卻沒機會閱讀這本大型書籍。

　　為了讓青少年尤其是中學生有機會了解新加坡老闆們如何一步一腳印實現自己的理想，玲子傳媒特別從這108位「頭家」中，精選出各行業老闆的20篇創業和守業故事，並重新改寫和修訂，出版成學生讀本《老闆青春夢》，希望家長和老師們可以推薦給孩子和學生，作為華文課外。

　　出版社與作者在編選20位老闆的故事時，並不著重在老闆們的事業版圖或公司規模，而是遴選較有故事性、更有勵志性的故事，或者是學生可能認識、熟悉的本地品牌，希望能以此吸引更多學生閱讀，也希望孩子們在閱讀本書後，能向書中追求自己的理想事業。

　　尤今慣常以如刃的目光讀大地，以細膩的心思讀生活，再以璀璨的筆桿，，寫繽紛的世界。

　　她說：「小時看漫畫，常常看到牧牛的童子坐在牛背上吹笛子，因此把牛目為浪漫的象徵；年齡稍長，讀及牛的頌詩，又把牛當成是勞動的楷模。成長之後，背著行囊，足履四海，才發現牛和世間萬物一樣，沒有一個固定不變的『模式』。

　　同樣是雲，卻美醜不一。同樣是河，卻有悲有喜。同樣是泥，卻大好大壞。把囿限於模子之內的目光看世界，不但辜負了大地，也糟蹋了萬物。 」

　　《傷心的水》一書內收了一百篇袖珍小品，敘述了一百則喜怒哀樂的故事。人間有愛，萬物有情，即使是一滴水珠、一片樹葉，也有感覺，只要用心眼去體會，便能通過它們，聽到一條河、一棵樹的故事；而當小河匯人大海、小樹紮根於大地時，我們便也同時能夠聽到驚濤拍岸的澎湃、小樹紮根於大地時，我們便也同時能夠聽到驚濤拍岸的澎湃、根鬚入土的呢喃。

　　Modern Singapore was forged in the flames of a volatile past. Different groups fought to tear Singapore apart during our early years of nation building.

　　This five-book series traces those turbulent years and tell the stories of the people who witnessed history up close. Written in a clear and down-to-earth way, packed with photographs and with pages of graphic novel storytelling, these booklets will appeal to students, young people and anyone looking for a vivid and concise overview of Singapore’s turbulent years.

The five titles in the series are:

• Battle for Hearts and Minds: Fighting the Communist Threat, 1948-1963 The fight against the communist threat in Singapore and Malaya in the years immediately after World War II. (76 pages)
  
  
• The Undeclared War: Konfrontasi Indonesia’s Konfrontasi (Confrontation) campaign against Malaysia and Singapore in the 1960s, including the 1965 bombing of MacDonald House in Orchard Road that killed three innocent people. (64 pages)
  
  
• Into The Fire: 1964 Racial Riots The deadly racial riots of July and September 1964 that took place against a backdrop of growing political tension in Singapore and Malaysia. (52 pages)
  
  
• Singapore Is Out: Separation and Independence The fight for merger and the issues that led to political tension between Singapore and Malaysia and, eventually, to independence for Singapore. (48 pages)

　　After Japan was hit by a triple disaster — an earthquake, a tsunami, and a nuclear meltdown — in 2011, Singapore raised about S$35.7 million, one of its largest contributions for disaster relief in another country.

　　In 2023, the year after Japan had relaxed border measures implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic that erupted in 2020, 591,267 travellers from Singapore visited Japan. This was equivalent to almost 15 per cent of Singapore’s resident population. In 2024, this number grew further by 16.9 per cent to 691,100.

　　The people of Singapore have shown strong support for Japan, even though Japan had occupied their home from 1942 to 1945, during the Second World War.

　　Things improved later. After Singapore became independent in 1965, Japan established diplomatic relations with it in 1966 and contributed significantly to its development. Both countries have also since cooperated in various areas, including the economic, defence, and security spheres.

　　The Land of the Rising Sun and the Lion City: The Story of Japan and Singapore illustrates the growing ties between both countries through their people’s experiences. The collection of 68 essays is contributed by more than 80 writers from various walks of life, including government officials, entrepreneurs, artists, academics, and journalists.

　　They include Singapore’s Permanent Secretary for Home Affairs Pang Kin Keong and Japan’s former Special Advisor on National Security Miyagawa Makio, who led the negotiations for the 2002 Japan–Singapore Economic Partnership Agreement; former Permanent Secretary for Foreign Affairs Tan Chin Tiong and Bilahari Kausikan; Nippon Paint Chairman Goh Hup Jin; Albirex Niigata President Korenaga Daisuke; TungLok Group President Andrew Tjioe; chef Willin Low; Enshu Sado School’s Grand Master Kobori Sojitsu; World Toilet Organization founder Jack Sim; Japan National Tourism Organization (JNTO) Singapore Office’s Executive Director Shiraishi Takuya; Gardens by the Bay Chief Executive Felix Loh; Japan Creative Centre Director Kawabe Akiko; Singapore Film Society Chairman Kenneth Tan; Artistic Director of the Singapore Biennale 2006 and 2008, Nanjo Fumio; National Gallery Singapore’s Assistant Chief Executive Aun Koh; Cultural Medallion winners Iskandar Jalil, Dick Lee, and Eric Khoo; YouTuber Ghib Ojisan; and journalists Walter Sim and Michiyo Ishida. Singapore’s Minister for Foreign Affairs Vivian Balakrishnan and Japan’s former Minister for Digital Transformation Kono Taro penned the forewords.

　　生活圓融和諧，全因處處有愛。鑲嵌著「愛」的日子，不論是酸、甜、苦、辣、鹹，各有牽動人心處，就算是淡吧，也是足堪咀嚼的好滋味。

　　尤今以「愛心、耐心、恆心、信心」為原料，搓成堅韌亮麗的金絲銀線，以它們繡出一幅又一幅雋永的「文字圖畫」。

　　浮現在這幅色彩斑斕圖畫裡的，是觸動人心而又恆遠常新的親情、友情、愛情、師生情、主僱情、夫妻情、兩代情。本書總共收集了十三篇小說，包括了千來字的微型小說、三四千字的短篇小說和四萬餘字的中篇小說。

　　尤今以書中的小說來「練武習藝」，在創作方式和技巧上，在素材的選取和剪裁上，作了多種不同的嘗試，為她個人的小說創作開拓了一個新的面貌。

　　本書收錄了作者從80年代末至2011年創作的微型小說精選作品共48篇，反映了作者在不同的人生成長階段中對事物的不同體會和感受，其中大部分反映了現今社會中父母與子女之間親情密度的有待考量，人情的冷漠、社會的光怪百態。

　　同時附上四篇來自中國和本地作家、學者的評論，希望讀者們能從中對作品有更深一層的認識與了解。

　　快樂，是有聲音、有形狀的；它無所不在；但是啊，許多人卻置若罔聞、視而不見！尤今相信，心裡有桃源，處處是桃源；而心中的桃源，來自人生的頓悟。借助《釋放快樂》這部小品文集，她希望能在各個不同的層面與廣大的讀者分享她個人釋放快樂之道。

　　本書宣揚真情、誠懇以及正面的處世待人態度。作品的特色是文字淺白，內容深入淺出，不說教，而是用故事啟發智慧，適合青少年閱讀。
