Worst Sugarcane Drink ever drank !!!

Yesterday, I visited the Geylang Serai area and soaked in the festive mood of Hari Raya Puasa amidst the dazzling arrays of lighting.

Thereafter, I proceeded to have dinner at the popular Haig Road market that was when my lovely night-out was botched.

I ordered splendid dishes for dinner and to accompany the food, I ordered a sugarcane drink from a stall located near to the edge of the market, which displayed some cut-sugarcanes soaked in a pail in front of the stall. The stall also sold an assortment of other drinks. Thinking the stall sells natural sugarcane drink, I ordered one cup for $1.50. A decent price for a wholesome natural sugarcane drink, I thought.

When the drink came, I immediately set upon it and to my utmost disgust, the sugarcane drink was hardly any sugarcane juice as promised! It was hardly even a diluted form of sugarcane drink! The colour of the drink was yellow, I observed and it was not even any drink that I could think of from the flavour that I have absorbed!

I felt horribly disgusted and my poor girlfriend with me developed such a terrible stomache after just a sip of the digusting liquid that she has to visit a loo soon after our dinner (in fact, she did not have much dinner as her appetite was spoilt after drinking that filthy liquid!).

I am not a confrontational person and I did not want to go up to the stall and asked them what this drink was really. To me, it was the WORST RUBBISH SEWAGE FLITHY LIQUID DISGUISED AS THE POPULAR SUGARCANE JUICE ! To pay $1.50 for such sewage water is madness, is a total waste of money!

I walked up to the stall again and took down the name of the stall. This drink stall would be BANNED for me. I could give the name of the stall to the relevant authorities to look into, but I do not want to tarnish their stupid business as people still have to earn a living no matter what and consumers would never go back to the stall if they experience similar encounter as me, "once bitten, twice shy" mentality.

What I could do is to sound an alert to those reading this post.

Vernon Leong Jun Wei

What happens to the 31 year old bride groom, Vernon Leong Jun Wei? As the news of this latest unnatural and bizzare death developed, it seemed that Vernon did not jump from the 24th storey of Hilton Hotel as was believed earlier. There were 3 video camera footages which might prove otherwises for the cause of Vernon's death. The first video footage showed Vernon at the 24th storey, making his way hurriedly into the fire escape staircase. The next video footage showed Vernon at the 2nd storey which also holds some shops and the final footage showed an unconscious Vernon motionless at the ground of the hotel. Vernon was cladded casually in a T-shirt and pants and have left his hotel room while his wife was taking a shower. It seemed that he might be escaping from something or somebody or that he might be chasing after something or somebody. What did Vernon see and experience at his last moments? The police is still investigating the case. It is really a very tragical and sad

Kampong Lorong Buangkok

Amidst the blazing afternoon sun today, my Dear and I made our way to Kampong Lorong Buangkok. The visit was a timely one as there is such a high buzz being generated over the last kampong in modern Singapore. After alighting from Bus 854 from Eunos, it was not difficult to find our way to the kampong. The entrance of the kampong was distinct as you could see from the picture: the 'ulu-ness' (rural charm) is evident from the attap-roofed buildings and more unkempt conditions. A signboard with hand-written text welcome my Dear and I to the last kampong in Singapore: As we entered the kampong, I spotted a middle-aged woman talking to an old man. I had seen the old woman before on TV. She was none other than the owner of the kampong land. In the documentary, I learnt that the whole kampong land was passed to her by her late father. She has kept the land and have not gone on to sell the land to the government. If she were to sell the land, she would be an instant multi-millionair

Performance Bonus

It is the time of the year civil servants receive their performance bonuses (PBs). In the coming two weeks, civil servants will not only receive their performance bonuses, special ‘growth bonuses’, would also await them for the very first time. These PBs and growth bonuses are only applicable to performers, defined as officers with assessed performance gradings above the ‘D’ grade. Typically, civil servants receive their performance bonuses in March, a 0.5 month of bonus in July and a 13th month plus AVC in December. Are all the bonuses good? To be frank, the bonuses dished out in Civil Service are averages at best. With the various bonuses being given out in these months: July, December and March, a civil servant who would like to quit would most likely try to find a ‘suitable’ month to quit so as not to forfeit his bonuses. The December bonus is generally the most generous portion. To quantify for this bonus, an officer would have to be in service till the end of January ne
