Monitor those Italians in Singapore

[allanlee]

What these Italians pay is irrelevant to me. What I really want to know is why SLA let an asset like this sit vacant for 7 years? Even if they rent it put for $20K a month, they would have earned over $1.6 million in 7 years.

Because nobody from that agency dare to "disturb" the the place after previous tenants / visitors reported strange unnatural happenings..... Bomohs and SPI ghostbusters were called in to investigate the place....... confirmed "dirty".

I doubt these Italians can make the place successful unless they have very powerful exorcist

Another hang out for the Rich and Elite. Normal sinkies just visit Kopitiam, drink cheap Kopi of 90 cents or tiger beer at $4.20 per bottle.

Never heard of this mansion.

Has this place got some kind of interesting history, such as Japanese committing massacres there

Aiyah, there is nothing wrong with this place. Ihave attended a wedding there before. Nothing happened. If got ghost, the Italians will import the Pope to exorcist it, and nothing is more powerful than him.

Curious about why the Capitol Theatre has remained vacant for so many years, Its only now that they have decided to do something with it.

They stole that place over 10+ years ago from shaw. Obviously the abuse of the land acquisition act. Long time since there have been any farmers in Spore but it hasn't stopped them from abusing the law

Of course this is abuse. If I recall, there was nothing wrong with the Capitol theatre. Yes, it was an older building, but not unsafe. The architecture is really nice, and given that we have so little land, to not utilize a building like that is a total waste. This fuckers just go round and grab everything they can. It is really inefficient.

The pool at Bukit Merah is currently being utilised as an aquatic and fitness centre by a private operator.
The Singapore Sports Council (SSC) has received proposals from several national sports associations and private organisations to use the facilities for various sports and recreational programmes.
However, the SSC deemed these proposals as unsuitable and two of the swimming complexes - Pandan Gardens and Yan Kit - will be returned to the State.
