Video: Long One Or Short One?


Which one do you want?

Namewee: Last New Year


Namewee's new year song "Last New Year" reminded me of my own maternal grandparents.

My Ah Gong was already gone way before my birth while Ah Ma followed suit not long after I was born.

The only impression I had of them is through a yellowed photograph which Mum has kept in the photo album.

As I have never experienced being doted on by them, I would be so envious whenever I see my classmates having a Ah Gong or Ah Ma to come pick them up from school.

Isn't it a bliss to have a grandparent to throw little tantrums to?

If your grandparents are still around, do learn to appreciate them before they are gone.

I know I will.

Short Film: Ka Fan 加饭


This is the story of a Mum who single-handedly raises her son by washing laundry for others.

Despite how busy she is, she would always make it a point to have her meals with her son everyday.

All she wants is just being able to spend more time with her son.

"Ka fan"?  she would often ask.

As years gone by, the child grew up.

With work and social life, it became his turn to be so busy that he hardly returns home for dinner.

Mum is then left to have her meals all by herself.

When the son returns home for the Lunar New Year, much to the delight of his Mum, he finally realised the meaning behind "ka fan".

Now, when was the last time you had dinner with your Mum?

永别了,潘安邦!


他走了。

刚从面子书上得悉52岁的潘安邦在今天下午因心脏病而猝逝的消息。

从小听着他的校园民歌长大的我对这突如其来的噩耗感到十分震惊。

在他许多歌中,最耳熟能祥的莫过于这首《外婆的澎湖湾》吧。

希望潘安邦在天之灵能够安息。

Oprah Winfrey Tells You About Puppy Mills


Have you ever been so tempted to bring a puppy home each time you step into a pet store and seeing those rambunctious puppies vying for your attention behind the window?

Sure, puppies are cute but have you ever wonder where they came from or even how their parents were being treated?

Without much further ado, let us meet the parents of those adorable pet store puppies...

Punggol East By-Election

Timelapse of Workers' Party's final rally by Jake Wang

In a couple more hours, the results for the by-election of Punggol East would be revealed. 

Which of the four candidates would emerge victorious after nine days of vigorous campaigning?

Would it be:

a) Koh Poh Koon, "the son of Punggol" from the ruling party People's Action Party (PAP),

b) "Jeya baby" Kenneth Jeyaretnam from the Reform Party (RP),

c) Desmond Lim, former protege of Chiam See Tong from the Singapore Democratic Alliance (SDA), or,

d) Lee Lilian, the sole female contender in this by-election from the Workers' Party (WP)

Whoever it may be, I only hope the residents of Punggol East exercise their voting rights wisely.

That aside, is anyone waiting for Yam Ah Mee tonight? Kee Chiew!

再见,南哥!


今早开启电脑,就惊悉资深艺人“阿南”逝世的消息。

他是因为心脏病在今天凌晨三点五十分在陈笃生医院与世长辞。

“阿南”,原名钟耀南,是一名著名的歌台艺人。

除了在主持界深获好评外,他也曾参与多部本地卖座电影如《钱不够用》,《吓到笑》,《鬼也笑》等等。

他的逝世无疑是本地娱乐界的一大损失!

南哥,永在怀念中!
