  1. Durian lovers, you know of any good stalls in Penang. I am going next week, hope the season is right. Appreciate your recommendation.
  2. KEDAH - Malaysia will enforce a smoking ban on restaurants, coffee shops and hawker stalls nationwide from Jan 1, Sin Chew Daily cited Deputy Health Minister Lee Boon Chye as saying on Thursday (Oct 11). The ban will cover all air-conditioned and non-air-conditioned restaurants, coffee shops, open-air hawker centres and street stalls. Dr Lee announced the mandatory ban while chairing a health forum at the Asian Institute of Medical, Science and Technology in Kedah. Those caught smoking at prohibited areas will be fined RM10,000 (S$3,300) and eateries found not enforcing the ban will be fined RM2,500. The Star newspaper reported in September that the health ministry was pushing to gazette all open-air restaurants as no-smoking areas, according to Dr Lee. The gazettement was not only to encourage smokers to kick the habit, but also to protect non-smokers from second-hand smoke due to tobacco products. "No doubt smokers will say they have the right to smoke, but non-smokers also have the right to have smoke-free areas," Dr Lee had said. The Gopeng MP is also seeking his fellow MPs' support to shut down the smoking room in Parliament by October. He hopes the MPs who smoke will take the opportunity to quit smoking. "This gazettement is Malaysia's commitment as a member state to the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control and adheres to the guidelines under Article 8 of the World Health Organisation," he added. The current Control of Tobacco Product (Amendment) Regulations 2017 prohibits smoking in 21 areas including hospitals, public toilets, lifts, government premises as well as air-conditioned shops and offices.
  3. heng i dun go all the way there to try these overpriced, and now "not so famous after all", hawker food rather go to the original ones also remind me of the famous claypot laksa at depot road last time.... many used "depot road" as their names, misleading the customers The week-old food street at Changi Airport, which was touted as offering 13 popular hawker stalls from different corners of the island, is not what it has been made out to be. The Straits Times has found that of the 13 stalls at the 10,800 sq-ft Singapore Food Street in Terminal 3's transit area, seven bear no direct links to the original famous stalls. Some are new start-ups while others are named after streets or areas well-known for particular dishes but have no connection to the original brands. For instance, Jalan Tua Kong Minced Pork Noodles at the airport food street is not an offshoot of the famed 132 Meepok in Marine Terrace, which was located in Jalan Tua Kong in the 1990s. It is also not related to Jalan Tua Kong Lau Lim Mee Pok Kway Teow Mee in Bedok Road. Instead, it is run by Mr Tan Dee Hond, 33, who told The Straits Times that he had worked at the Lau Lim stall for about two years in the mid-90s. The owners of two popular char kway teow stalls at Old Airport Road, Dong Ji and Lao Fu Zi, said they did not open the Old Airport Road Fried Kway Teow & Carrot Cake stall at Terminal 3. Nor is Mr Elvis Tan, 54, who owns East Coast BBQ Seafood at East Coast Lagoon Food Village, behind the airport's new East Coast Lagoon BBQ Seafood stall. As for the airport's Tiong Bahru Meng Kee Roast Duck, there is no such stall in Tiong Bahru hawker centre. The owner of the airport's Tiong Bahru Meng Kee Roast Duck Mr Wen Yee Thim, 40, said he named the stall after his older brother, and included Tiong Bahru in the name because he learnt his roast meat preparation skills at a stall in Tiong Bahru in the mid 1990s. When asked if naming the stalls after a street or an area that is famed for a particular dish was a misrepresentation, Select Group's executive director Jack Tan, 45, said: "If you use the name of the stall, then you're in trouble, but if you don't use the name and just use the street, it's free for all." He added: "I think there was a miscommunication because there really are some famous hawkers there but maybe not 100 per cent. We just want to associate the street name with our product and our concept of it being a food street." He added: "We can't use specific names because they may be trademarked or registered, that's why we use street names." The airport hawker stall called Changi Village Nasi Lemak is run by someone who once worked at one of Changi Village hawker centre's two famous nasi lemak stalls, Mizzy's Corner and International Muslim Food Nasi Lemak. When asked which stall in Changi Village she had worked for, Mr Tan said: "I don't know which stall, because she didn't mention which stall, but I think it is one of the quite famous ones. I trusted her by doing the food tasting." Only three of the stalls in the food street - Odeon Beef Noodles, Sin Ming Road Rong Cheng Bak Kut Teh, and Kampong Cafe - are directly linked to the original stalls. Changi Airport Group's spokesman Robin Goh said that while some of the stalls may have direct association with the original brands, and others have indirect links in varying degrees, for instance through former chefs or employees, "the operator's naming of the remaining stalls after certain locations may have given the wrong impression that they are directly connected to popular stalls at these locations". He said that the airport would be working with Select to rename stalls that do not have direct association with the original hawker brands. Engineer Kelvin Sng, 25, who dined at the food street last week, was taken aback when a staff at the food stall he was ordering from told him that its name was "borrowed" and that it was "not original". But he said the roast meat rice he had was "good and satisfying". It is a common practice for hawkers to capitalise on the name of a well-known, location-specific type of food such as Katong laksa and Jalan Kayu roti prata. Mr Boo Geok Beng, 63, owner of Kampong Carrot Cake in Tiong Bahru, said: "It is common for people to use the Tiong Bahru name because of the popularity of the hawker centre." But the prevalence of the practice does not make it right, said Mr K.F. Seetoh, 50, street food advocate and founder of street food guide Makansutra. He said: "The new stall will be living off someone else's reputation, someone else's good will. You cannot register a street name and there is no law against it, but it is not right."

  4. NTUC now runs hawker stalls ? http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/sin...1204734/1/.html
  5. ST Forum Jun 14, 2011 Reduce rentals to keep food stalls afloat MY HEART goes out to food stall holders who have been caught between their pledge to maintain prices for six months and the rising prices of almost everything. The pledge to hold prices in an uncertain business environment was a brave one, though probably not well thought through. We should go back to the original aim of setting up food centres, which was to provide affordable sustenance. And for this, the rentals should be reduced. The HDB and other government agencies that are landlords, and the private companies that run food centres, should step up and reduce rentals. They too have a duty to the population. They should show they have their hearts in the right place by ensuring the survival of such food centres which have acquired social relevance as well. Murali Sharma

  7. Singapore, April 18, 2010 - When it opened to much fanfare in July last year, the Food Hall at basement 4 of Ion Orchard was packed. Several stalls there had long queues of hungry shoppers and stallholders could barely cope. Now, six of the 34 stalls have closed, the queues are gone and stall assistants at the remaining businesses stand around looking bored.

  8. Hey anyone can recommend me where to get phone from? As most of my phones are from Singtel the shop itself, I don't know where to start looking for one now. I'm looking for Sony Ericsson m600 or w950. Recommendations?
  9. Hi, my family car is an old honda civic. A while ago we were told the carburator(dun know how to spell) was going to spoil already but we didn't pay too much attention to it since we were gonna get a new car anyway. But recently, the car kept stalling and is very jerky.......... I suppose its the carb giving problem but the mechanic actually told my dad that there weren't anymore new carb for my dad's car model....... We aren't interested to get a new one as well cos we are more interested to spend that money on a new car so anyone here can give any advice? Heard that it might be the "butterfly" in the carb giving problem or the nozzle that spray fuel is stuck. Any other recommendations esp to mechanics who can handle this prob?
  10. It's wierd. After cooling down (left for more than 2 hours)....my engine will start at the first crank. Then I drive it (in the carpark - MSCP) and as I drive...within a minute, the engine starts to have fluctuations in the revolutions. It will go above 2000rpm without throttle input, and fall to almost 1000....then rise and fall....gradually bottoming out below 700rpm where the engine proceeds to die. And then it refuses to start! Yesterday..before going to the esplanade, I had to push the car into a lot, so as not to block traffic in the carpark. Thankfully, there was a lot on the level which my car stalled. I then had to keep cranking....for more than 15mins (more than 10s of cranking...then resting it for a minute.) Finally.....I decided to crank for a longer period at least 20-30s. And the engine finally starts! ....and I leave it to run idle for a minute. Then I proceed to switch it off.....and then I restart...and it starts on the first crank. We drive to the esplanade without incident. In fact..the car feels very responsive...and more powerful (I don't know why...) And after seeing the fireworks....the same thing happens ! And with the engine fluctuating again! I pushed the car into the nearest lot (up a slight slope - Marina Sq carpark) After a few more failed attempts...for some wierd reason, I decide to crank it again for as long as it takes to start....and again...around 30 secs of cranking allows the engine to start! With everyone looking at me I decided to rev the engine to see if there was any other problems. Nothing again. And we proceed home without incident....and with the car being very responsive. Anyone saw a Black Presea....intermitently speeding (way above speed limit) last night?... Anyway....I hope that it starts today Anyone with any ideas as to why it behaves like that?? Could it be....too much petrol (the fuel attendant overfilled my tank earlier that day)?
