  • Malaysia’s Church Bombings A Disappointment

    “I think Singaporeans must have a care not to bring problems like this to themselves,” said DPM Wong at a community event in Singapore on Sunday. “We live in an inter—connected world, we cannot be divorced from what happens in other countries. But at the same time we must be rational, and examine: when we…

  • Chow Kit Wet Market, Kuala Lumpur (Pictures)

    Just down the steps from the Chow Kit monorail station. The busy Chow Kit wet market. This photo was also taken in the Chow Kit wet market. The man is using a machine to shred coconut meat. A neighborhood in the Chow Kit area.  The houses seem to be arranged in such a way that…

  • Singapore’s January 15th, 2010 Eclipse

    I was looking forward to this solar eclipse.  I’ve never even seen one before and even though this wasn’t going to be a full solar eclipse it would still have been a first for me. Somehow, I managed to let it slip my mind, and at 4:20 I found myself staring at my computer screen,…

  • Cleaning Up After Yourself At Fast Food Establishments

    The past two years saw a similar campaign for food courts, but they were not well-received.”Encouragement has been done a lot, in schools, in army camps, in polytechnics, in universities, everywhere. But once they go to a food court, they have the habit of just (leaving the trays behind after eating), which I think is…

  • When Dogs Go Wild: A Singapore Misadventure

    The afternoon was pretty much like any other.  I was getting ready to go out to dinner when I realized that I needed to wash a load of laundry.  So, I went down to the laundry area with my basket, sorted the clothes into piles, put in a load and started it up.  When I…

  • Finding Common Ground Through Community Cats in Singapore

    It’s amazing how friendships can start over something small. There’s a cat that lives under a block that we pass by on our way home from the Pasir Ris MRT station.  My wife had found it one day while jogging and since the cat was very friendly she started bringing a small bit of cat…

  • New Year’s Resolutions

    Well, it’s the beginning of a new year, 2010.  This is the time to reflect on the past year, evaluate what you’ve done and then make new resolutions.  My holiday weekend was packed!  I went out to meet friends for dinner, did some shopping, visited Little India and Mustafa for the first time, went to…

  • Singapore’s 2009 New Year’s Eve Fireworks

    Walking through CitiLink Mall to the Esplanade area was a minor nightmare.  The place was jam packed with people.  After we finished our dinner at ‘New York, New York’ we took a break at the restroom and then braved the crowds.  It wasn’t too bad until we got to the escalator that goes down, where…

  • New Year’s Dinner at ‘New York, New York’ at CityLink Mall

    We were running behind when it came time for the fireworks show so we had to haul ass down to the Esplanade area without stopping on the way for dinner. Luckily, there’s a ‘New York, New York’ restaurant in CityLink Mall, which you walk through to get to the Esplanade area. The last time we…

  • Say Cheeze, Tampines 1

    My wife and I finally got around to trying this place out.  I’d actually decided not to eat there because the decor is hideous.  I mean, I want to be nice, but there’s really no excuse for how horribly ugly the place was decorated.  So, I’d written it off.  It didn’t look that appealing.  I…
