but it was LKY who started wearing pink for important public speeches , how do you explain that ?WHY ? Because he is a CAQ.
A Malay or Muslim business person even if he doesn’t step on MIW tail would be targeted nevertheless ...there was case of a Malay contractor successful overseas got whacked ...LKY had his law office in Chulia Street in his younger days when the entire street had Indian Muslim businessmen ...and he had realized what such economical muscle can achieve politically ...he wiped out the entire street and till today these people have absolutely no political representation in Sinkie
Jumabhoys are Shia muslims and PAP tend to leave them alone as such business families are quite apolitical ..but were they Sunni business family ,they would have been kaput .,,just look at the businesses these Sunni families controlled in Sinkie prior to PAP , will shock you further ..all shipping related and transportation and ship chandlling businesses , pharmaceutical and hospital supplies , school uniforms and books , paper for printing industries and stationaries, live stocks , publishing and media related ,Jewellers , spices and many many more.not to mention huge huge stretch of properties the Arab sunnis owned , whose names are just street these daysWow! Tats something new i learn today. I heard jumabhoy family shld have won the tender for present hotel marriot (formerly known as Dynasty hotel) site. But it was awarded to Tang family.

now , the centre of business in those days revolves around Clifford pier area ,...the entire Battery Road were these business people ...and so were in the market street ..in fact . there is a mosque right below UOB building
even if you look at our Chinatown area , there is 3 ancient Mosques ,1 built just 6years after Raffles landing and 2 Hindu Temples but only 1 chinese temple .,does it make any sense ?
even the street names are Realating Indian in the heart of Chinatown .,,except like Hokkien street and such bordering outside the Chinatown of today
that one quite abandoned for a long time along telok ayer street ,isn't that a mosque? ..that's the one built just a few years after Raffles landing ...now I think is some sort of exhibition hall2 mosque? Tot only 1 mosque around chinatown? Masjid Jamae.
Haha...imagine a Mosque at a basement of a bldg?

the mosque below UOB already existed there way way before ...not too sure about the story ...but when UOB was about to be built ,the preference was a mosque in the same place instead of a piece of land else where ...of course ,my story hear say only lah ,perhaps some other can give a more accurate version
yes ,that's one of it telok ayer street ,but I was talking about this one built in 1828Its Masjid Moulana Mohd Ali. Why would any Muslim wish for a Mosque to be underground (UOB Bldg) is beyond me.
Yes, below Masjid Al Abrar. At Telok Street near Shenton way. Its not abandon. Its fully utilised especially during Friday.

The girls wear shorts underneath or zaogeng at that age?Because he's a proud Nanyang girl.
Wear blue - look like they are WP
Wear red - like TCB's chosen colours
Wear white - too severe.
My recommendation - wear lime green, at least it will complement the clownish comments they make.
Also first time I found out Jumabhoy is shia. Thought they didn't exist here.Wow! Tats something new i learn today. I heard jumabhoy family shld have won the tender for present hotel marriot (formerly known as Dynasty hotel) site. But it was awarded to Tang family.
