Re: Empty Giant Shopping Mall - damned Jialat!!!
The paycheck for average folks in Chengdu is about RMB 2500. That's SGD 500. What kind of spending power do you think they have ?
Just because when you are in China, you see lots of people in fast food joints and restaurants does not mean that they have spending power. They eat out probably once a week only and with the huge population (Chengdu population = 10 million), there is the illusion that doing business is easy in China.

Re: Who can better General Giap ? RIP SIR!
Saddened ? Why ? Sounds completely unnecessary.
SINGAPORE: The Singapore government said it is saddened by the death of Vietnam's General Vo Nguyen Giap.
In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said General Giap played a pivotal role in Vietnam's fight for independence.
It added that Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong has written to Vietnam Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung to express his condolences.
General Giap died on October 4, aged 102.

I wish Chairman Mao could have ruled this country till eternity and keep China close and as backward as possible. Every province is trying to outdo each other to boost fake GDP number by building ghost town and train to nowhere. The rise of China economy is nothing but a global environmental disaster!!

Re: Empty Giant Shopping Mall - damned Jialat!!!
Now you know why your masters must have 6.9 million quickly. Thereafter, 10 million. All for greed (and to line their pockets with million dollar pay packets). The day will come when Singaporeans will form less than 30% of the population. 2016 will see the change.

Singaporeans should count their blessings. We must always be grateful to Mother Nature for blessing us with good weather, good location, a peaceful and calm harbour.
Let us all pray and thank Heaven for the blessings and the good things we are enjoying.
Majulah Singapura!!! Long Live Singapore!!! Long Live Singaporeans!!!!

China needs to build in order for money to flow into the pockets of corrupt officials.
Whether the building is actually used or occupied is secondary.

Are you a speckie ???
Singapore, which has one of the world's highest rates of myopia, spends a staggering US$250 million (S$311.5 million) on prescription glasses every year.
The United States, on the other hand, spends US$13.4 billion, 53 times times as much, but for a population 59 times as big as Singapore's 5.4 million.
These figures were highlighted yesterday by Professor Tin Aung, deputy director of the Singapore Eye Research Institute, in a lecture to mark World Sight Day, organised by the Lions Club, one of the world's largest volunteer organisations.
Speaking at a community event in Bedok where residents were given free eye tests, Prof Aung, who is also the head of research at the Singapore National Eye Centre (SNEC), also gave a stark reminder on how myopia can lead to other health issues.
