Fare reduced, min. of 2cents per trip saved

SINGAPORE: Come April, public transport fares may be lower, but commuters have mixed reactions to the changes.

For a group of polytechnic students, they were not expecting any revisions. Hence, the S$2 to S$4 reduction in concession—pass fares was a pleasant surprise.

But they said the changes do not address the issue of polytechnic students paying higher concession pass fares than their counterparts in junior colleges and institutes of technical education (ITEs).

Still, they agreed that the reduction is a good move towards reforming the fare structure system.

Ong Kian Min, the vice—chairman of the Government Parliamentary Committee for Transport, said the fare changes are a good gesture by the transport operators and he is satisfied with the results of the review.

With the revised fares, commuters can save a minimum of 2 cents per trip. But as small as the savings may be, commuters said they will have a maximum impact.

Some commuters said the changes will help to ease the financial burden brought on by the recession. "At least better than nothing," said a commuter.

"Maybe can save more, can do something else. Can buy some books and then can eat better," said another.

But most said the changes are too insignificant to make much of a difference.

"Two cents savings, might as well don’t save. Really rather not save," said a commuter.

"Even if you talk about 50 cents, (when) you want to buy something, I think you can hardly get anything for 50 cents. So two cents is really nothing to me," said another.

"I think, adjust (the fares) up to three cents or five cents (will be) better," said a third commuter.

"If profit margins aren’t so affected, why not reduce more to help more of the public," said a fourth.

Others said they hope to see more reductions at the next fare revision exercise.

— CNA/ir


YEAH~ we gonna save at least 2cents !~! yippie do~! 

okie.. scarasm aside, i really wonder which genius said this line 
"Maybe can save more, can do something else. Can buy some books and then can eat better,"

i would really love to know where i can get books or food tt cost 2cents only

eat better ? the aunt at the stall will shove ur 2cents up ur freaking nose!

imagine 
"Auntie , bar chor mee one"
"Orh"
"Auntie, i give u 2cents more, can i eat better?"
"Orh........ wat?"

Seriously.. this is... ridiculous -_-

sigh... anyway 2cents better then nothing... in a way... 

KillZone2 Ad


Mind you, this is rendered in-game using a ps3

"The idea for the commercial centered on telling the story of war on Helghan - up close and very personal and to use the game's engine to show it. No voodoo, no heavy metal soundtrack: just the true representation of the in-game graphics. The team at Guerrilla embraced the concept and we were on a production rollercoaster ride that produced a piece that will be broadcasted across several networks starting tomorrow."

There will be a "Playable" demo for this scene tt can be downloaded in PSN, which u can control the camera n listen to the director's commentary

WOO HOO !! cant wait for this game !

Public Transport Council expected to decide on new fares soon

SINGAPORE: The Public Transport Council is expected to decide on new fares this week and commuters are hoping for some cuts in bus and train fares, especially with the gloomy economic situation.

However, transport analysts are not expecting dramatic drops and they said fare reductions will probably be in favour of concession groups.

Transport operators SBS Transit and SMRT responded to the Budget announcement last month by saying they would pass on savings from government rebates to commuters.

"If they cut it by 20 cents or 30 cents a day, I think I can save around S$100 a month," one commuter said.

"At the moment, normal fare from one end to the other is about S$2. So 30 per cent is around 60 cents, so that will be good," another added.

"I basically think they should reduce public transport fee by another 20 per cent — back to ’04—’05 levels, before inflation kicks in."

Terence Fan, assistant professor, Management, Singapore Management University (SMU), said: "As the economy is in early stages of slowdown, it’s likely that prices may fall even more later on. So it’s also possible that in the middle of the year or even next year, we’ll see a further reduction."

Transport economists said cuts serve two purposes. One, they help those currently taking public transport, and two, if well—crafted, they could stimulate demand for more trips which could help to stimulate economic activity.

"For example, retirees who would normally be home would now say, ’Hey, hang on a second. I could perhaps use this opportunity to go to that restaurant or kopi tiam to have lunch’, so that might stimulate economic activity," said Professor Fan.

A formal announcement on the new fares is expected soon.

Finally our "World Class" transportation decides to reduce the fares instead of increasing them

Someone drew a penis when he signed off his credit card


Over the past 6 months, I have been playing a fun game with my credit card company. The game finally backfired on me today and led me through the most hilarious moment of my life. Most people would have been embarrassed, but me, I'm a little twisted, so I laughed all the way through it like an asshole.

With any story, there is a setup process. Here is the setup to this story. About 6 months ago, I was making a purchase with my credit card and when I went to sign the electronic signature machine, it was broken. By broken, I mean that when I touched the pen to the machine, it went crazy and didn't look anything like my signature. It looked like a drunk 4 year old signed my name for me. It accepted the signature without any problems. So this really made me wonder what I could do to give my credit card company something to laugh about. I mean, they obviously don't review the signatures since they never called me or declined a purchase. For ****s sake, it could have been a stolen card.

I started out modest by signing with a line or an "X". Occasionally I would do last name first. After a couple of months, I became bolder. I wrote goofy ****, drew pictures, etc. Here's a list of some of my favorite signatures over the past few months:

I AM NOT KINGPIN
I STOLE THIS
**** OFF
**** YOU
WALMART SUCKS
CALL ME
CROTCHY CROTCHINGTON
MY BALLS ITCH
911
I'M A CRIMINAL
THANKS FOR THE STUFF

Today I went the extra mile. When it came time to sign my name, a thought popped in my head. I should draw a picture. But what picture should I draw? I smirked as something completely juvenile came to me. This is a rough drawing of the signature that I provided:


Yes, I know, it's not my best artwork, but I didn't have the time to be elaborate with the drawing. I had to look like I was providing a signature. Right after I hit "OK", there was a pause. The register then said "COMPARE SIGNATURE ON SLIP TO CARD." One thought popped in my head: "OH ****!" It then printed the receipt and there in black and white was my ****ty drawing of cock and balls. The lady at the register didn't immediately look at it. She asked for the card. I handed her the card and she flipped it over. Then she brought up the receipt and she smirked, but then took a stern tone and said "These signatures don't match."

At this point I was in tears from trying to hold back my laughter. I tried to explain to her why I had done it, but it didn't matter. I probably didn't make sense as I laughed hysterically through the explanation. She then paged the manager and I erupted in laughter. The guy behind me in line got a glimpse of my signature on the receipt and began laughing. The manager comes up and the woman from the register begins whispering to him. I then hear a few words "he drew a penis..." as she holds up the receipt. The manager blurts out a short laugh and then controls it. He turns to me and I'm out of breath from laughing and I'm still giggling like a schoolgirl.

Manager: Sir, your signature...heh...umm...doesn't match the signature on your card.
Kingpin: I know and there is a good reason for that.
Manager: (quietly) You drew a penis on my credit card machine.
**The guy behind me bursts into laughter.**
Kingpin: Yeah, I didn't think this would happen. I've been trying to see how far I could go with my signature before the credit card company did something about it.
Manager: I guess you learned your lesson.
Kingpin: Yeah, the credit card doesn't accept penis.
**The guy behind me now can't stop laughing.**
Manager: OK, I'm going to decline the signature and have you sign it again.
Kingpin: Fair enough.
Manager: This time, really sign it.

So I had to sign it again and they wouldn't let me keep my artwork. Those *******s. I had singlehandedly broken up the monotony of their daily routine and given them something that they will be talking about for years to come and they wouldn't let me keep it. They will tell their grandchildren about the guy that drew cock and balls as his credit card signature.

So I have a plan now. I'm going to get a new credit card and sign the back with my cock and balls drawing. Then I will consistently use that as the signature. That way, if I ever get caught in the same situation, the signatures will match. That will really **** with them.

JB nursing homes draw some S'poreans

Melissa Sim

WHEN civil servant Gordon Yong, 39, needed to find a nursing home for his mother following her stroke, he found the ones in Singapore too expensive.

They were charging between $1,200 and $1,800 a month - far more than he could afford on his salary of under $4,000, which also supports his three-child family. His working wife also has to look after her parents.

He did the next best thing and got his mother a place in a home in Johor Baru (JB) for $600 a month. This is how Madam Leong Mew Peng, 80, came to live in Spring Valley Homecare, less than half an hour's drive from the Causeway.

Fellow Singaporean Alison Low, 58, checked herself into Spring Valley over two years ago - also for cost reasons.

The three-year-old home has 11 Singaporeans, making up one in five residents there. Of the 10 other homes The Straits Times inquired at in JB, eight said they had between one and 10 Singaporeans.

Checks with their kin showed cost savings to be the main draw of these homes.

A plug for these homes came in Parliament on Monday from Health Minister Khaw Boon Wan, who said Singaporeans could save money by using JB nursing homes. For what it costs to board someone in a private nursing home here, 'you can stretch it easily to pay for at least 21/2 months of nursing home care in Johor Baru', he said. The facilities there typically charge between $450 and $1,000 a month, compared to those here which ask for between $1,000 and $4,000.

Mr Khaw said another perk is that JB is 'near enough for relatives to visit'.

But 57-year-old supervisor Mohamed Waris, whose father is at Spring Valley, said he has problems finding a cab to go there. Nonetheless, he makes the journey every two to three weeks.

Those who check out JB homes are also finding some with facilities that are comparable to those here.

Spring Valley, for example, follows Singapore regulations and provides one toilet for every four beds. Its high ceilings and large windows make its rooms airy.

China Healthcare, previously known as Econ Healthcare, will open a 200-bed home in JB within two years, following its 100-bed facility in Kuala Lumpur. Its chairman, Mr Ong Chu Poh, said a home in JB would appeal to Singaporeans due to their familiarity with the town, its proximity to Singapore and the lower fees.

Mr Yong would agree that JB is still the best choice for him now for those reasons. 'I'm just unable to afford the rates here. But I do wish I was able to bring my mother back.'

simlinoi@sph.com.sg

This story was first published in The Straits Times.

Let's face it, u put ur aging parents at nursing home in JB, u sure u can visit them every wk? if not once per mth? after awhile dun even feel like visiting them coz of the distance. 1/2hr trip? tt's if there's no farking jam in the 1st place

Marley & Me by John Gorgan


Just finish reading this book n it’s a pretty good book i must say, it really tugs at ur heartstrings at the end

i think this author (John Gorgan) is wicked n evil actually, initially he talks abt how spastic marley is, he makes u laugh at his antics n stupidity (which i really laughed out loud sometimes)

At the end of the novel, he reminds u of the same things tt marley did at the start of the book but this time, u wun be laughing out loud, u might be shedding tears this time

The way John gorgan narrates what marley might be thinking at certain times in the book is also cleverly done, it seems that tt’s wat marley was really trying to say.

While reading the book , u will keep thinking how come there’s such a crazy dog which is like the all the screws in his head are loose, but yet so lovable n adorable, he runs around, crashing into stuff, destroying items,  but when something terrible happened to john n his wife, he stops his craziness, put his head on their lap n offered a hug, it’s all this crazy n surprising things he do, that makes u shed tears at the end of the book 

Animal lovers beware, if u shedded tears at the movie Quilt, u might shed again for this book

n yes i admit i did shed tears -_-





....shut up n stop laughing at me -_-

The Mom Song

Remember the time when ur mom would nag n nag at u when u were a child (or maybe now still nagging), well, now there’s a song for it with lyrics !!

The Rise of the Drug-Running Remote-Controlled Semi-Submarines


Drug lords have been using homemade subs to ferry cocaine to the US from Columbia for a few years but the machines are getting more sophisticated, sometimes employing remote control systems.

The subs aren't really subs, they always have a portion of the ship above water. But at less than 18 inches of height above sea level, they're hard to detect using radar, despite being anywhere from 40-80 feet, carrying from 4-12 tons of the white stuff and 4 people. (Or none if being remote controlled!) They are reported to go slow and steady using diesel engines and up to 1500 gallons of fuel. They can make the trip at 6-12 knots in a single tank. As if they could refuel anywhere. The ships take over a year to make from fiberglass/wood or steel, and cost $2m. Not a whole lot of money since one load can take almost $200m of cargo from Ecuador to San Diego.
Here's a worrying thought:"...if you can move that much cocaine, what else can you put in that semi-submersible. Can you put a weapon of mass destruction in it?" Navy Adm. Jim Stavridis, Commander, U.S. Southern Command

Hong Kong airport fury makes online hit

HONG KONG (AFP) - - A video of a hysterical passenger screaming at airline staff and writhing on the floor after missing a flight at Hong Kong airport has become a YouTube hit.
ADVERTISEMENT
By Sunday, the three-minute clip of the furious woman had racked up close to 40,000 hits in three days on the video-sharing site.
The video starts with the screaming woman running towards the departure gate and bouncing off a female security guard, after she learned that her flight has been closed.
She then starts banging a desk before collapsing to the floor and rolling around, while maintaining a high-pitched wail.
A man unsuccessfully tries to comfort her and get her off the floor, but the shrill screaming continues.
The footage, entitled "A woman missed her flight at the boarding gate HKIA" appears to have been shot with a mobile phone from behind the staff desk.
The woman was travelling on a Cathay Pacific flight to San Francisco on February 4, a Cathay spokeswoman told AFP.
"All passenger doors had already been closed and the crew was preparing the flight for departure," she said.
"As the passengers had failed to show up on time, we had already offloaded their checked baggage to comply with the security requirements."
The spokeswoman said the woman had been able to take a flight a few hours later, adding passengers are always advised to arrive at the gate no later than 20 minutes before the scheduled departure time.
"We do not know who shot the video or who posted it on the web," she said.
