Streaker keeps study grant THE A*Star scholarship holder convicted earlier this year of strolling through Holland Village stark naked will get to keep her study grant. Ms Eng Kai Er, 24, will continue her studies at the Karolinska Institutet in Sweden, after the Agency for Science, Technology and Research let her off with a warning. 'We have reviewed her case with her, and have issued her a warning for her indiscretion,' it said.
