POSTED: 27 Aug 2015 21:15 UPDATED: 27 Aug 2015 22:45 PHOTOS Two snakes were seen duelling at the NTU campus on Thursday (Aug 27). (Photo: Abhishek Ambede) ENLARGE CAPTION 3716 15 0 Email More A A SINGAPORE: Two snakes, believed to be a reticulated python and a king cobra, were seen "fighting" each other on the street near Nanyang Technological University's (NTU) Research Techno Plaza (RTP) at noon on Thursday (Aug 27). PhD student Abhishek Ambede shared pictures of the incident and told Channel NewsAsia the snakes were wrestling on the road beside a forested area. "Some of us working at RTP can see the site from our office. When we spotted the incident, I went down and noticed that the python had constricted around the cobra's head. ADVERTISING The tussle, witnessed by a large crowd, lasted for about 30 minutes before the snakes separated. "The cobra escaped to the bushes, leaving the python moving slowly on its own along the road." Mr Abhishek said he and other bystanders alerted NTU's pest control, as well as the Animal Concerns Research and Society (ACRES). Pest control officers removed the python, but were unable to locate the cobra. After 4pm, the cobra reappeared briefly. "It was about that time that ACRES appeared but by the time they arrived, the snake had disappeared again into one of the drainage holes," Mr Abhishek said. "ACRES told us they could not catch the snake if they could not see it. All we know is that there is no immediate danger. The only worry is that if it reappears on the road, there is a chance it might get run over," he added. Mr Satish Digen, a technical officer at NTU, said pest control officers put sulfur powder down the drains in an attempt to draw it out. The reptile eventually emerged from its hiding place at about 10pm on Thursday and was taken away in a bag by the pest control team. The NTU Graduate Student Council earlier urged those on campus to be on alert for the cobra. "Please be careful when you take the sidewalk near to bushes. Night researchers and night runners, please be extra vigilant," it said in a post on Facebook. - CNA/hs

Hi all I need feedback pertaining to The Children's Campus (Childcare centre) at Almond Cres. (Bt Panjang). Any comments? Greatly appreciated :>

saw this today... http://www.todayonline.com/articles/211122.asp Letter from Tricia Tong THE National University of Singapore's (NUS) Bukit Timah campus has imposed a $1 charge for vehicles entering the campus through Kheam Hock Road and exiting at Cluny Road. The charge applies from Monday to Friday, 8am to 9am, and there is no grace period. NUS signs (pictures) on site state that the charge is to help regulate traffic. Motorists have been using that route for a long time, even when the Singapore Management University occupied the premises. There was no charge for through traffic until NUS took over. Why is the regulation of traffic on that route any of its concern? Although there are times when the route can get busy, the vehicles are unlikely to cause any disruption to NUS' operations. Motorists who use the route are used to queueing patiently to get onto Cluny Road. And classes do not even start until 9am. I find it objectionable that NUS is allowed to impose its own little "ERP". I would like to know on what basis it purports to impose the charge and to whom the revenue goes.

just watched the campus superstar...witnessed how the 3rd judge harshly criticise the 3rd contestant...words like 'should thank the gods that you are still around in this competition'....'don't have worth will not get respect'...etc...etc...really feel sorry for the poor fellow...the judge criticism is too much...getting too personal...and in national tv somemore...this is harsh on the contestant self-esteem...the contestant is in the competition due to public votes...judges should not be personal...go ahead and criticise the singing but not personal attacks...just feels pissed when contestant get bullied...
