  1. "Car-loving creature trying to "monitor" engine problems from the inside" No tall 'tail': Large lizard found under car bonnet A video of men trying to yank a monitor lizard from one man's car engine has gone viral. The driver, Thum Wai Loong, shared with Channel NewsAsia, his close encounter with the scaly kind. Screengrab from a video of a monitor lizard stuck in a car bonnet (Image: Thum Wai Loong's Facebook page) PENANG: He left for a short business trip, and when he returned, found a nasty surprise in his car - a monitor lizard, wedged in the bonnet. Mr Thum Wai Loong, a Malaysian, posted a video of his scaly find on Facebook, and it has since gone viral, with over 6,500 likes as of Tuesday (Sep 9). The Assistant Sales Manager for Winston Engineering Corporation told Channel NewsAsia he had a business appointment on the island of Langkawi on Sep 3, and so drove from Penang where he lives, to Kuala Kedah Jetty. "I parked my car at an open car park exactly in front of the jetty entrance and boarded the ferry. I stayed one night and came back the next day (Sep 4) at about 2:30pm." The first sign of trouble came about five minutes after he drove off. "After passing two traffic lights, I heard a short tapping sound coming from the engine area," he related. He stopped by the roadside, and popped the bonnet open to check - then came the "surprise", he said. Mr Thum said he let go of the bonnet and stepped away as a natural reflex. "I could only see a big fat tail slithering. I didn't see the whole lizard." He called a friend for help, who in turn contacted RELA Corps - a volunteer community service group. Despite much tugging by two men, the reptile stayed stubbornly inside the hood. "The whole process took about 10 minutes. They couldn't pull it out, so finally they let go and it crawled underneath the car and quickly went into a big drain just beside the car," Mr Thum said. It moved so fast, he was unable to get a clear shot, but he estimated the lizard to be around 1.5 metres. "The tail itself was 2.5 feet (70 cm)." No word on how the lizard came to be in the bonnet, and where it slithered off to. However, netizens had a field day cracking jokes about the car-loving creature, with some saying it was simply trying to "monitor" engine problems from the inside. - CNA/ly (Source: http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/asiapacific/no-tall-tail-large-lizard/1354148.html )
  2. Planning to get a resale flat near Dawson, where the highest floor is 40. Wonder how is it like living in a place with several tall blocks & large number of apt units? Appreciate your kind feedback on the pros and cons. Thanks very much

  4. http://www.asiaone.com/News/AsiaOne%2BNews...629-151644.html Dog's hind leg chopped off Graphic pictures of a dog with its hind leg severed have been posted on citizen journalism website, STOMP. The mongrel, named Kiwi, is possibly a victim of animal abuse. It was rescued by STOMPer Wendy, with its hind paw severed and its leg stripped of flesh and skin, leaving its bone clearly exposed. Wendy said: "A couple of stray dogs have been rescued recently with unimaginable injuries. "You may feel uncomfortable looking at them, but this is what really happened to our fellow local dogs in Singapore. "Being strays are never easy, it is even worse if there are such losers out there, targeting at these helpless animals. "We call this girl Kiwi. "No one could imagine the ordeal this helpless girl has to go through." Ms Deidre Moss of the Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA), told The Straits Times that its vet had looked at the pictures, but could not ascertain the cause of the dog's injury. Ms Moss said it could have been a fracture due to a road accident. Other possible causes could be abuse. "Now we just hope that Kiwi can survive this hell."
  5. I am sure most of you would have read about the ang moh riding around town in that silly bicyle in the papers and in Stomp. This guy is an accident waiting to happen. Just drove past him last night and he experienced side wind and almost crashed into me. Why arent the police doing anything?
