  1. LEARN TO SURVIVE HIGHWAY THUGS Experts provide tips on how to protect yourself while driving up North By Tan Mae Lynn June 04, 2007 YOU are driving in Malaysia and have to make a pit stop along the highway. A man walks to your car, brandishes a knife and orders you to open the door. What should you do? Judging from the reaction of Singapore motorists involved in recent crimes, few know how to react when faced with such scenarios. Recently, a Malaysian woman, whose husband works in Singapore, opened the car door to an armed man while her husband was at the washroom of a petrol station in Tampoi, Johor. The assailant drove off with her and her young son in the car to a secluded spot where he and an accomplice took turns to rape the 28-year-old pregnant woman. In other cases, Singaporeans were accosted by robbers. Said Mr Lionel de Souza, a former police officer: 'If you're on a highway and being pursued, try and make a dash for a police station or a crowded area. 'If you're outnumbered, just give them what they want. It doesn't feel good to lose something, but your life is more important. You can always earn money back.' He also suggested driving to Malaysia in a convoy. 'At least if one is hijacked, the others can get help,' he said. 'And don't drive a flashy car.' Professional race driver Denis Lian, 35, who drives into Malaysia quite frequently, said the last thing motorists should do is open the door to strangers. He said: 'When you open your car door, or when you just step into your car, you're at your most vulnerable. CHECK MIRROR 'Before you come to a stop, look in your mirrors and see who's around or approaching. If you see anyone around who looks suspicious, or hovering around, or anyone who just makes you feel uncomfortable, drive off.' And never, ever get out of your car when faced with a suspicious situation. 'Your car is your weapon and your only defence. 'It's much safer behind the glass window... It's unlikely the person will smash the window - it's very difficult to do that.' Agreeing, Mr Tan Teng Lip, president of the Singapore Motorsports Association, added: 'Make sure you car is locked from the inside. Never wind down the window to speak to strangers. If you sense trouble, sound your horn to attract attention.' AVOID STOPPING As many Singapore families are expected to head north during the current school holidays, it may be prudent for them to be prepared for overseas road trips. Chief editor of Wheels Asia magazine, Mr Mazlan Samad, advised that even when someone bumps into the back of your car or causes you to hit into their car by braking suddenly, you shouldn't stop the car. He cited these as some of the common tactics robbers use to get motorists to stop their vehicles. 'If you're in foreign territory, alone or don't feel safe enough, take note of the car number but don't get off. Just drive to the nearest police post or petrol station to get help.' He also advised that it would be prudent to note down the telephone number of the traffic police or traffic emergency services in whichever country you'll be driving in. General manager of the Automobile Association of Malaysia, Mr Samuel Saik, added: 'If there's an accident, there's not much you can do anyway. It's better to make the call for the person than to put yourself at risk by getting out of the car.' Also, always keep to the main road and never stop at secluded spots for rest or toilet breaks, especially when driving alone and at night. 'Even Malaysians don't do that,' he said. source: http://newpaper.asia1.com.sg/news/story/0,...,132157,00.html?
  2. Hi, I am married with a wife, no kid. my company are sending me to China (almost certain as nobody else can go as I am one of the partner for this company) for at least 1-2 year. problem is my wife has her own career which pay her quite well and she is almost certain does not want to separate with me for too long. If I am asking her to give up her career and join me in China - she will have to give up everything she built up in her company and restart, even might have to restart again when she come back to Singapore. If she remained in Singapore and I will be in China, this is something she do not want to it to happen. what should I do?? If almost certain I will need to be in China. Should I ? 1)ask her to follow me China and leave her career? 2)ask her to remain in Singapore. I know final decision still within us but I just hope someone can share their experience or idea as I am totally loss now... Thanks

Two men armed with a knife and a wooden club broke into the Bundanoon home in the NSW Southern Highlands last week demanding to speak with the unnamed girl about the cash. The girl had helped her grandmother count her life savings in Sydney when she posted the photo of the undisclosed sum of cash to the social media site. At 11.30pm, seven hours after the photo was uploaded, the men entered the girl

  8. TOKYO (AP) - Japan's beleaguered Mitsubishi Motors Corp. reported its first quarterly profit since 2004 as the weaker yen lifted earnings in the October-December period. Japan's fourth-largest automaker, which has been fighting to regain consumer trust devastated by a recall scandal several years ago, had a net income of 4.3 billion yen (US$35.8 million; euro27.7 million) for the fiscal third quarter. A year ago, it lost 4.3 billion yen. Mitsubishi had reported a loss for every quarter since it began reporting quarterly earnings in 2004, said company official Fumio Nishizaki. The company has not reported an annual profit since the fiscal year that ran through March 2003. Quarterly sales inched up to 538.7 billion yen (US$4.48 billion; euro3.47 billion) from 538.3 billion yen a year earlier. The weak yen and increased sales of so-called built-up vehicles -- units built in one country and shipped to another in one piece for sale -- allowed Mitsubishi to log an increase in sales despite a decline in vehicles sold, the automaker said. The company also reported earnings for the nine-month April-December period, logging a net loss of 11.8 billion yen (US$98.2 million; euro75.98 million), an improvement over the 68.1 billion yen loss for the same period the previous year. Mitsubishi said it stood by its full-year forecasts of net profit of 8 billion yen (US$66.6 million; euro51.53 million) on 2.23 trillion yen (US$18.6 billion (euro14.39 billion) sales. The fiscal year runs through March. In 2000, Mitsubishi Motors admitted it had been covering up auto defects for more than two decades, and announced a string of recalls. In 2004, however, it revealed it had failed to divulge all its problems in 2000 and had more concealed defects. Mitsubishi Motors' sales had been lackluster even before those scandals, and had fallen behind powerful domestic rivals like Toyota Motor Corp. and Honda Motor Co. Mitsubishi suffered earlier scandals since the mid-1990s, including a sexual harassment lawsuit in the United States and arrests of executives on criminal charges in Japan for paying off racketeers tied to gangsters. http://news.moneycentral.msn.com/provider/...0206&ID=6441257
