Ha, Haaa :) Every sane souls are aware that huge bundle are made by them at every turn of the corner. So this project is no exception to that at all. Even our elected Opposition has to turn a blind eye to it for fear of you know who and his henchmen of every description. So what's new in that thought of yours. OK.

to you, my thoughts are nothing new...to many too, my thoughts are nothing new...perhaps almost 40% of singaporeans know what I know. But 60% are still in slumber. So it is good for those of us who know the pap's wiles to bring them up once in a while...by doing so, some of the 60% may get to know the true pap.

Right or not??

yes..also australians pay less than foreigners to enter most attractions

senior citizens sometimes get to go in free or travel free..that's how the australians show and honour their seniors..

the pap has to demonstrate with deeds and show our young how to honour our senior citizens

You are absolutely correct in that thought of yours. It's also very kind of you in trying to wake up the sleeping 60%. Now have you ever thought of waking up Rip Van Winkle? That's the real task, Lady. :-) I wish you best of luck in that effort of yours. In the meanwhile just enjoy walking that golden pavement of GBTB like Dick Wellington did in the City of London, which in any event is our blood and sweat that has contributed in it's existence. Think about it, if that $1B is not expanded on GBTB never mind what it's real cost should have been, can you rule out that $1B may not have been turned into chips for them to roll at our expense. So count ourselves lucky at least there is something that kopiuncle is now enjoying and I hope you do as well. He is being practical and so will you be as well. :)

Uncle, that flower car looks nice and innovative. Will we be seeing it in this little red dot soon? Don't have naughty thought, OK. :-)
