Celebrate Borneo Motors’ 100 years with complimentary servicing for pre-owned Toyota & Lexus bought from Sgcarmart. Enjoy authorised distributor care.
If you think Singapore has been around longer than Borneo Motors, you might be surprised to learn it's actually the other way around. While Singapore gained independence in 1965, Borneo Motors opened its first showroom in Singapore back in 1925, located along Orchard Road.
Having been in Singapore for a century, Borneo Motors - which
High-tech and stylish electric vehicles doesn’t have to be expensive and inaccessible - the JMEV ELIGHT, which offers all you want in an affordable package, is now available in Singapore.
Singapore’s car industry has never seen so many new brands within a given time span since forever - I can easily count more than 10 EV brands that has entered the market within the last couple of years.
And it is a great phenomenon for car buyers - whether you are someone that’s intending to buy your
Trust Hong Seh to revolutionise your business with cost-saving and sustainable fully electric commercial vehicles and you'll never look back.
You don’t need me to tell you this: The time is now. Yes, I’m talking about switching to an Electric Vehicle. EVs have been making up a huge part of new car sales in recent times with - over 40% in Q1 this year.
Technology has improved, making EVs more efficient and accessible. Chargers are also easy to find with tens of thousands of EV charging
I first came across the first-ever Far Cry game in the now-popular series back in 2004, the year of its launch. I was eight and wandering around the “Toys & Games” section in a department store (I believe it was Takashimaya) and the cover caught my eye. I’ve always been drawn towards First-person Shooter (FPS) games, and I thought I’d give it a try. Thus, I got my parents to buy it for me, and the second we got home, I loaded it up.
Back in the day, CDs were still very much the norm, an
When Pong was introduced in 1972, one wonders if anyone ever envisioned video games as more than just a source of entertainment.
Today, the industry it is credited with establishing is worth USD$184.3bn as of 2024, and while Pong has been immortalised in museums, will we be able to say the same of modern games?
Do video games even count as art worthy of sitting alongside relics and paintings?
WHAT CRITICS SAY
In 2005, film critic Roger Ebert gave the opinion that video
Earlier today, it rained so heavily that when looking out the pantry windows at lunch, it almost felt as if I was witnessing snow falling.
It’s both an intriguing yet also slightly scary thought – the fantasy of snowflakes descending upon Singapore. Just imagine the Singapore River frozen over, with the foreground of MBS covered over with a blanket of snow.
While the image of our tropical city-state cloaked in a delicate layer of white first evoked images of enchantment, it immediately
We've all been affected by rising, consistently high temperatures in Singapore. Unless you live in an air-conditioned bubble that you never leave, the torrid heat is inescapable. It – along with the humidity – envelops you and refuses to let go.
Thus, the pertinent question: How much water do we need to drink daily?
According to Health Hub, we should consume two litres of water a day. However, in my experience, this is only the minimum amount. Water loss occurs even if you're indoors,
What is it about pandas that makes them so endearing to us? Is it their distinctive black-and-white markings? Is it how they're so clumsy that you could accuse them of being drunk? Could it be because both adults and cubs look so cuddly?
Whatever the reasons, pandas are popular. So popular than when countries accept pandas on loan from China that this is referred to as 'panda diplomacy'.
But we all know that pandas are also endangered and need our help to propagate themselves. Apart fr
By all accounts, restaurants are a high-stress environment built around accuracy and precision. This impression is formed through a combination of stories from chef friends, watching too much restauranteur/food content on youtube, and The Bear.
So of course, trust Japan to be like, yeah screw that. Introducing: The Restaurant of Mistaken Orders.
The concept is centred around a pop-up restaurant where all the wait staff are people living with dementia. Basically, there's a g
Ok this is going to be a fast one, but you’re in for a fun time, I promise.
Remember the Ever Given? No? Maybe this image might jolt your memory:
Yeah its a satellite image, excuse the quality
Ok if you're still drawing a blank, it's the ship that clogged the Suez Canal in 2021.
We’re more familiar with land-based transportation, for sure, but I guarantee, this video is hilarious. And you’re gonna get a nice breakdown about just one of the craziest stories that happened
The BYD SEALION 6 is the carmaker's spanking new SUV. Here's what you need to know about it.
Following the increasing popular BYD SEALION 7 that was launched at the Singapore Motor Show early this year, the leading carmaker in Singapore just pulled the covers off yet another new five-seater SUV. Dubbed the BYD SEALION 6, the SUV goes up against the likes of the Jaecoo J7 as well as the Toyota Harrier. Here are six things you should know about the SEALION 6.

I don't know if its the visual comedy of it, but there's something quite fascinating to me about pocketbikes - basically, full size humans race on pocket size motorbikes. It looks absurd and hilarious, and I desperately want to try one.
And we've all probably grown up playing a mini version of some sport or another. Remember those plastic bowling pins or little football goals you could buy at a mamak shop?
Well, recently I have been made aware of another mini creation - tiny tennis:
When you hear the words 'toxic person', what images come to mind?
Most of us imagine the stereotypical toxic person: He or she gets on everyone's nerves with their negativity, short temper and biting comments. This person micromanages subordinates, interferes with other projects, endlessly toots their own horn, and gaslights others.
However, there is another form of toxicity that is infinitely more harmful.
Covert ops
If you haven't guessed it, the worst toxicity is the insid
First things first, lets talk about a film that merges pulsating action with a touch of science fiction: War of the Worlds (2005). Starring Tom Cruise and Dakota Fanning, this Steven Spielberg-directed spectacle (adapted from H. G. Wells’ classic novel) sees aliens returning to Earth and rising out of the ground in machines buried thousands of years ago.
One thing to note is that the realism of the alien machines and their menacing presence set the tone for an intense cinematic journey. Des
Having followed this club for more than 20 years, I'm well aware that a promising transfer window does not directly equate to an improved season. Forwards Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo, as well as Diego Leon, the young Paraguayan wing-back, have been Manchester United's signings for the 2025 summer transfer window so far. On paper, this team should have no problem challenging for silverware. On the pitch, the current crop of players finished 15th last season.
While both Cunha and Mbeumo ha
Singapore is known to be a melting pot of different cultures, races, people and of course, cuisines from all over the world.
You can probably find food from most places here in Singapore, but we also have some dishes that we like to think of as our national dish - okay, google says there isn't an officially declared national dish, but Chicken Rice is one of those that's often mentioned.
Yes, we all love Chicken Rice, but it isn't really unique to Singapore....

I've often wondered: How much work would get done today if offices were not air-conditioned? What if the only air-con we could enjoy was only in shopping malls and supermarkets?
Images of stuffy offices fill my mind. Despite the availability of fans to circulate air, the oppressive heat and humidity will lower our productivity. Many of my colleagues and I experienced this in our previous office, where the ancient air-conditioning system would have a monthly breakdown.
For two days, the
Sometimes, the key to spicing up your life can take a very simple and mundane form. Or in the case of a challenge I embarked on in early-July, a bland and literally tasteless one.
Feeling sometime in mid-June that I had been swept up too mindlessly by the push-and-pull of the everyday, and seeing that I *had* to reclaim some sense of agency with the way I lived, I eventually decided: I would allow myself only water as a drink.
I'm pretty sure Yakun and Toast Box lost a fair bit o
As your all-in-one mobile e-wallet, having Dash on hand makes topping up your TNG eWallet more secure and seamless - with competitive rates to boot too!
Within the short span of a few years, road trips up into Malaysia have taken on a more tech-centric guise.
We're talking, of course, about the rise and the omnipresence of the all-powerful Touch 'n Go eWallet (TNG eWallet).
With most merchants in Malaysia now accepting cashless payments via the TNG eWallet, you could effectively g
You might have seen this viral clip on social media:

This might be one of the greatest, funniest things I've seen in quite a long while.
Put simply, its horse-racing, minus the horses.
And look, of course it's all a bit of fun (clearly a stunt to gain social media attention, but it also raised money for charity). I think it might be best described as 'doing the thing, minus the thing'. And we've seen plenty of gimmicky conceits (I for one am quite a sucker
As my JC classmates suddenly made plans this year to have an NDP watch-party (this is likely our first in the 12 years we’ve known each other), I found myself falling into a state of nostalgia again: This time, thinking about how NDP songs have evolved over the years.
It’s not a stretch to say that each NDP song - from the inception of the idea of an NDP song back in 1984 - has woven itself somewhat into the fabric of our collective memories. Whether you were singing along loudly in primary
Wimbledon just concluded yesterday (congrats Sinner!), and it's a reminder of how much I enjoy tennis as a sport. I used to play it some (wasn't particularly good), and still tangentially follow it nowadays (the Roland Garros final this year between Alcaraz and Sinner is an all-time classic).
There's something intrinsically mesmerising about the sport, I think even for spectators who have never picked up a racquet. At first glance, it may seem like just two people (or four, but doubles is
Income Insurance's eDrivo Car Insurance provides coverage that's tailored to the unique characteristics of electric cars.
As Singapore shifts towards sustainable forms of transportation, electric vehicles (EVs) are continually growing in popularity with more and more drivers switching from internal combustion engine (ICE) cars to fully electric.
EVs contribute positively not only to individual users but also to the environment, and society. Apart from a smoother and quieter ride, they
"Scientists Just Discovered a Creature That Breaks the Rules of Life". I mean, that's quite the headline.
Sukunaarchaeum mirabile is also quite the name to pronounce. But yes, that's the name of a recently discovered organism that apparently challenges the traditional scientific definition of 'life'.
There's a fair bit of scientific jargon to sieve through, but the quick summary is this: Cells are considered "alive" because of their ability to self-replicate and reproduce, whereas vi
When one thinks of Godzilla movies, one imagines an oversized amphibious dinosaur generating a terrifying heat ray from its mouth and fighting with other oversized monsters. Meh, nothing special, right? Wrong. Here’s why Godzilla Minus One should be an action movie you should definitely catch.
In this version, the timeless clash between monster and man is once again set against the tumultuous backdrop of post-war Japan. But, unlike typical action films that dive headfirst into destruction a
