Neutral Wrist and Forearm Position: The Swiftpoint Pen-Grip Series' ergonomic design naturally aligns the wrist, arm, and shoulder by promoting a neutral wrist and forearm position, which reduces strain on the tendons and muscles of the hand, wrist, and forearm. The pen-like grip encourages a more natural grip position, with the fingers extended and the wrist in a more neutral position, helping to prevent the wrist from bending at an awkward angle, which can lead to strain and discomfort over time.

[4] [5] The story tells of a love affair taking place around the time of the Japanese invasion of Singapore. It stars Luke Treadaway, David Morrissey and Elizabeth Tan. Walter, still reeling from recent news, struggles to face the harsh truth. Matthew hears devastating news about Vera and races to save her from danger.

From the moment the trailer appeared, the drama was mired in controversy. The British and south-east Asian advocacy organisation Beats issued a damning statement criticising the series’ “harmful non-representation” of Asian characters and its “breezy and inconsequential” approach to a traumatic period in country’s history.
