Blame Mas Selamat for Traffic in Singapore

March 31, 2008

I have maids who enter Malaysia complaining about the long queue of buses at the Causeway. One maid even cried saying they were asked to walk all the way from Singapore to Johor Bahru. Not that its that far its just a bridge away.

Who to blame(this is Singlish)? No other than MAS SELAMAT.

I havent seen a concerted effort this big in Singapore…searching high and low from rivers, hills and small forests of Singapore just for one man…..cathcing MAS SELAMAT who escaped from detention a month ago.

the result….a  lot of illegal immigrants were caught and the traffic jam at the Causeway is terrible. I hope they find him soon.

Heres a funny video from the opposition(who else). I hope this wont be banned in my blog.

PS. Sa Pinas pag nakatakas ang bilango sigurado papatayin yon. Sa Singapore pag nakatakas ang bilango patay ang Chief of Police .

 

 

Yesterday we waited for the bus coming from the Causeway interchange for about 30 minutes…Thanks you MAS SELAMAT po!!!!

 

 

 

iPhone Coming to Singapore in Sept 08

March 19, 2008

Today they announced that the iPhone launched in the USA in June 2007 will finally be coming to SIngapore in September 2008 and the price is estimated to be S$690.

Currently iPhones sell at US$399 plus taxes of 7.25% it sells for about US$425 or about S$500.

We have just unlocked our pair of iPhone . Together with the S$67 unlocking device we purchased online ,our brand new units costs us S$632.

 

If Singtel will sell each unit for S$699 most probably each consumer will have to sign a two year contract for each unit.

I am now using my unlocked iPhone unit and I think the screen is wonderfully clear,the hand scrolling and magnifyin functions is excellent.However I still have to master using the sms or texting since everytime I write my messages I tend to touch the wrong letters(maybe I should have slimmer fingers).

But all in all I am fascinated by my new iPhone.

Another SIngapore IT Show Opens

March 6, 2008

This is the annual event that my husband eagerly awaits. This year however he is not so excited to go because he has just received his new laptop from his office. That makes us own a total of 4 laptops at home. One for each one of us, myself, hubby and for my two sons.

However, the IT Show is always a treasure show of surprises. You can specially look for good bargains at the first day and certainly on the last day.

The show is on from March 6(today) till Sunday March 9. Unfortunately we will be in Bintan on Saturday and Sunday. So no last minute IT bargains for us.
