  1. Friends, It's been more than two years since our last meet up, and with the re-opening, how about a meet up? for old friends to catch up, make new friends? Exchange tips and maybe even shake hands or bump fists... I suggest the Pasir Panjang Hawker Centre: - plenty of parking - stalls open late - MRT if someone wishes to choose that instead - open air with plenty of spacing in between - Muslim + Chinese offerings that taste good We can meet after dinner on SUNDAY 15th May - those who wish to eat can come earlier too. Say 7.30 pm onwards? https://eatbook.sg/pasir-panjang-food-centre/ https://www.google.com/maps/uv?pb=!1s0x31da1bbbed2e767f%3A0xad9207ba4ac53000!3m1!7e115!4s%2Fmaps%2Fplace%2FPasir%2BPanjang%2BHawker%2BCentre%2F%401.2761955%2C103.79133%2C3a%2C75y%2C198.97h%2C90t%2Fdata%3D*213m4*211e1*213m2*211s6X8W05KCbCSgMRZxzXtosw*212e0*214m2*213m1*211s0x31da1bbbed2e767f%3A0xad9207ba4ac53000%3Fsa%3DX!5sPasir Panjang Hawker Centre - Google Search!15sCgIgAQ&imagekey=!1e10!2sAF1QipO13XUCSJ-FX-hlulpYYNuzmG8sJpnXGvCMgjuk&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwi-7trd1r_3AhXsyzgGHStIB6oQpx96BAhcEAg https://johorkaki.blogspot.com/2017/08/hua-kee-at-pasir-panjang-seafood-plus.html Huat ah! BUT some ground rules: - please don't come if you have some active infection, not just C+, but flu, or something like that ok? - masks are optional, but the last thing we want is to be a super spreader event haha @BabyBlade maybe you can give out some decals?
  2. Muayhahaha... anyway she got to where she is now because she had a break by dating Larry Page for a while Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer was criticized for her presentation at the annual Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity last week. Her presentation to the advertising community was panned for being too canned and inauthentic. It got worse Mayer though. After we wrote about her presentation, one attendee at Cannes Lions, who asked to remain anonymous, said Mayer, in a series of events, managed to rub several company executives the wrong way. Here’s what our source told us: First, she bombed at the Palais as she basically read her entire presentation from teleprompter screens. Was stiff, forced and it showed as she tried to pander to the crowd. Then she went to WPP’s Stream conference, where she was grilled by Sir Martin Sorrell, CEO of WPP. After giving another canned presentation, Sorrell hammered her. First he asked her what it would take for her to return an email. When she responded she returns every email, he stated that she hadn’t returned his, that Sheryl Sandberg returns his instantly and should he take it personally that she doesnt. Then he asked her what her relationship with Dan Loeb was. When she responded “very good,” Sorrell chimed in, “That’s not what Dan tells me.” This is front of every key WPP executive and many of her peers. But she saved the best for last. That night, Yahoo had scheduled a very intimate dinner with the giant ad agency IPG. It included every top exec at IPG and at Yahoo. Mayer insisted the dinner be at 8:30 sharp. Everyone rearranged busy schedules including IPG CEO Michael Roth. Mayer ends up standing the group up and shows 90 minutes late. Roth was leaving as she walked in. Her excuse…”I’m sorry, i fell asleep,” to which Roth continued walking. We’ve been trying to confirm this story by reaching out to the major ad agencies. However, Suzanne Vranica The Wall Street Journal offers a similar story, which seems to corroborate our source. Vranica reports that Mayer was late for a meeting and told people she had fallen asleep.
  3. THE Land Transport Authority (LTA) is calling a surprise industry-wide meeting with motor traders today, sparking speculation that it will announce more changes to the certificate of entitlement (COE) system. The authority - which refused to comment on the meeting - is expected to release details on the next six-monthly supply of COEs mid-January. Observers said the number of COEs is expected to fall by double-digit levels across the car categories, with supply already at its lowest since the system started in 1990. This will mean premiums - hovering between $72,000 and $80,000 now - could go higher before settling down in the latter half of the year, when the quota is expected to expand appreciably. Motor Traders Association president Glenn Tan said: "I would think that they (the LTA) are worried that COE prices will shoot up further, especially with the smaller supply expected in the next six months." Observers said if premiums approach or breach $100,000 - which Mr Tan does not rule out - it will prompt the authorities to take action. The last time premiums inched towards this psychological barrier - in January last year - the Monetary Authority of Singapore promptly announced a drastic cap on car loans in February. The cap restricts car loans to 60 per cent of purchase price and tenure to five years. This cooled COE premiums down to around $60,000-plus. But premiums soon headed north again, with Category B - for cars above 1,600cc - at just under $80,000 now. "They may be wondering why COEs are not coming down," Mr Tan said. "And they want to find out from us." Other industry players, however, expect the authority to announce more changes to the system, which was tweaked just last year. Singapore Vehicle Traders Association secretary Raymond Tang said: "They might split Category C (for commercial vehicles) into two - one for big vehicles and one for small." This will address longstanding criticism that the current categorisation for commercial vehicles is inequitable. "It can't be that big trucks and buses compete with small panel vans," said Mr Tang, adding that the LTA had already addressed a similar inequity in Category A, which is for cars up to 1,600cc. After a long review, the authority announced last September that cars qualifying for Category A must not produce more than 130bhp in engine power, on top of the existing cap on engine size. This removes premium brands like Mercedes and BMW from Category A, and reinstates a more level playing field for mass-market brands. Other traders said commercial vehicles might even be removed from the current COE supply formula, which is based on the number of vehicles scrapped in the preceding six months, as well as an allowable annual growth rate of 0.5 per cent. Having a separate formula for commercial vehicles will also immediately mean more COEs for businesses, as the category no longer has to contribute part of its allocation to the Open category. Yet, others speculate that the LTA will do away with Open COEs altogether. Although Open COEs are meant to add flexibility to the system as they can be used for any vehicle type, they mostly end up exclusively for bigger cars. There is also talk that the LTA will put off a clawback of COEs oversupplied in 2008 to 2009, to ease the immediate crunch. Meanwhile, there have been calls from quarters such as the Automobile Association of Singapore and transport academics for a top-to-bottom overhaul of the COE system. Indeed, some have questioned if the system is still relevant. Mr Tang said: "If we go for zero growth rate, why would we still need COEs? It'll simply be a replacement system - one new car for every car scrapped." But Transport Minister Lui Tuck Yew said in an interview with Bloomberg on Wednesday that Singapore will still need the quota system for the "short and medium term".

  4. Just recieved an SMS from an old friend asking to meet for supper on Thursday night. We used to be very close when younger but grew apart when he climbed the corporate ladder very aggressively (and I got left behind). To be honest I am not sure if I want to meet up also because when I try to arrange a meetup at other times of the year, I get ignored. When he asks me out there is usually a hidden agenda and I will end up paying for supper. You guys have friends like this?
  5. Hmmmm.......... just as bad as Taiwan assembly meeting. link: http://sg.news.yahoo.com/video/temper-tant...-181813021.html
  6. Hi guys, I have a problem here. My partner's parents are presurring me to meet up with them, but the thing is, we are barely officially together for 2 weeks and I am not even sure if the r/s will end up well. In short, experimenting stage. Her parents from what I heard is the very old fashion kind and any meet ups will imply that we are heading towrads something very serious like marriage. That scares me. but i understand from their view point as well cos my partner is not young anymore (30 this year). I also do not want to put my partner in a spot be it now or if it doesnt work out in the future yet how do i tell her that? cos you know, women are very sensitive one. 1 If the meet up really take place, does that mean closing the exit door if it ever happens 2 Any bros here kena like dat before and how to siam thanks

  9. The last time we drove one of Lexus' new HS 250h hybrid sedans, we found the experience to be about what you might expect. That is to say, eminently usable and well-designed with reasonable driving dynamics. We liked it, though we pointed out that the styling is pretty bland and performance is merely adequate. We can't say for certain whether that staid styling or its lack of driving emotion may be holding it back in the marketplace, but Wards Auto reports that the HS 250h is failing to live up to the sales volume projections set out by Lexus when the car was introduced late last year. Since initially going on sale last August, Lexus has sold 11,228 HS hybrids. Last month, Toyota's luxury division moved just 1,076 units, which makes for a grand total of 4,529 since 2010 kicked off five months ago. A quick calculation tells us that full-year sales, assuming they remain at something resembling a steady pace, will be under 14,000 units. Lexus had previously set a target of 20,000-22,000 HS 250h sales in America
