SMRT was fined for causing a 7 hour service disruption on 21st January 2008. Someone wrote in to the Straits Times forum stating that LTA should not consider the appeal. Now that the writer’s wish come true, one can’t but wonder who will eventually pay for the fine. Hmm… THE Land Transport Authority (LTA) has ...

I am now suffering from "Whose ping is it anyway?" withdrawal syndrome. Every time I look at a post now, I can’t help but read the title and abstract and guessing who the author is. If only every post is now a "Whose ping is it anyway?" question. Argh! Whenever I look at Chinese posts, ...

Have you eaten dog meat? Do you know that besides Korea, dogs are also an alternative source of meat in times of emergencies? In the Arctic and Antarctic where meat is scarce, or for that matter, where food is scarce, sled dogs - yes, the cute ones which pull your sleds in the snow, are ...

Blog2U relaunched their new website today. As such, it is important for all current Blog2U registered members to re-register again! Apparently, it’s now much easier to have ads on your blog… or at least they’ll make tracking your ads much more easier. Does that mean the end of cut-and-paste ad scripts? Well, I am not ...

Should LTA decide to take the "wrong-way" approach, it’s going to be very interesting. What happens is that buses will get their own lane (or lanes) on an opposite-moving direction. If we look at at from a broader perspective, it is essentially a 2-way street, assuming a single-direction road, with buses occupying the lane moving ...

Yes, it may soon cost more than just the season parking for residents to drive out. Start from (next?) Monday, it’ll cost drivers an additional $1 to drive out of their domiciles if they start anywhere near the new ERP gantries at Upper Bukit Timah Road, Toa Payoh Lorong 6, Upper Boon Keng Road, Geylang ...

It’s the end of the financial year (yes, Simply Jean does have a financial year) and there’s going to be some changes in which the blog will be run. Starting from today, only the latest entry will be available via browser. This is because of a Loof Virus that’s spreading around on the host server ...

Simply Jean was there when they were testing out the F1 car. I have only one word to describe it. Noisy! If I have to use 2 words to describe it… it’d be…

Hailstones! Lots of it! In Singapore! I knew that there will be hailstones in Singapore this year given the extremely cold weather in March this year and that the weather everywhere had been going haywired recently. Indeed, hailstones have been spotted in central Singapore, in areas such as Bishan, Braddell and Toa Payoh. The hailstones ...

For everyone who’s been reading my blog, they’d know that I almost never delete any comments unless they are spam and even when people advertise their blogs in the comments form, I usually keep one eye close unless it’s very outright. However some proclaimed "anti-terrorist" took a step too far that I just couldn’t stand ...

Are you thinking of bringing in that DVD from that… ahem, shop across the causeway? Are you thinking of bringing in just a packet of cigarettes that’s almost 1/2 the price in Singapore? Are you eyeing on that packet of weed that you had been dying to try and perhaps grow in your backyard? Well… ...

Some are worth more than its face value (the ones with special numbers, or well preserved old notes), some are worth what they are while others… are not worth a single cent at all. The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) has clarified that some of the notes which ...

Mas Selamat has wrecked havoc after his escape from the detention center. It was a non-tested method but it worked and caught the national security off-guard totally. They were probably expecting him to bomb a building, hold an important person hostage (having said that, there’s a chance that the important person might be left to ...
