Dangerous Motorists - Don't just jail them, cane them too!

Received another comment, so here's sharing with you folks. The New Paper Speak Up January 09, 2008 DANGEROUS MOTORISTS Don't just jail them, cane them too I URGE the authorities to implement stiffer penalties for all dangerous motorists - those involved in drink driving, speeding, hit-and-run cases, driving without licenses or bullying. The number of victims seriously injured and killed by these dangerous motorists has risen despite campaigns to educate and warn motorists. I overheard a man drinking in a pub with his friends saying arrogantly that his 12 months in jail for drink driving was like a holiday camp. I felt he would not be saying that if his 12 months of jail had been changed to 12 strokes of the cane. Here are my recommendations for tackling these offences: # Replace the jail term with caning as it will serve as an effective deterrent. # Impose a minimum fine of $50,000. The authorities can use the money to set up a fund for the victims. # Confiscate their vehicles...

And they love to take photos as much as I do! When the camera flash goes off, he walked forward for me to take a clearer shot! Anyway, if u still can't see him, he's behind the house @ the top right corner of the photo... She's a real beauty! This photo don't do justi...

Why laymen cry foul

Received this long comment after I posted on, " What has the world become ? Take some time & read what this reader has to say... Straits Times Forum December 21, 2007 Crime and punishment: Why laymen cry foul I REFER to the letters on crime and the law in The Straits Times of Dec 19. From these, one can surmise one thing: laymen like us put a high value on human life and safety, whereas the law occasionally values property more than lives, and, at times, does not acknowledge certain acts as being seizable despite obvious harm perceived by the public. This divergence of opinion results in the impression that punishment meted out does not commensurate with the crime, or that the law does not fully protect the public interest. Take the case of the drunk driver who caused the death of a pedestrian ('11 weeks' jail hardly an appropriate sentence'). According to Section 66 (1) of the Road Traffic Act (Chapter 276), any person who causes the death of another by driving re...

News!

Good news for some and bad news for others.. Baby Vios is here to stay for the time being.. Till I can fetch a better price... That is at no loss to sell it away.. Full settlement is at $43,261 now.. No car dealer of the right mind would gives that price.. But keeping the car would mean... Getting prepared to pay the increased insurance premium of $1,600+... And the $400+ road tax... All 2b due in Feb'08... Can only pray $$ fall from the sky lah, hor? If you are a vivid reader of MyPaper... You would not failed to realize that MyPaper is now available in 2 languages! The good thing is you would get to read more news.. However, the downside is, the paper has become so much heavier! Imagine holding a 128 pages of newspaper now... Compared to perhaps a 30 pages one before... MyPaper readers have to start training up their arms strength... In case, Serena still read my blog once in a while.. Help me to wish my dearest god daughter Natalie, "Happy Belated Birthday!". In case, ...

Give me chocolates or cheesecake... They're my HAPPY food! Whenever, I'm feeling down... I find my temporarily happiness by eating them... Tonight, I was down again... However, I was given double the happiness I wanted! Coz it's Chocolate Cheesecake I had! This Chocolate Cheesecake from Rocky Master brought me to Heaven for that moment! =) P/S: And now you readers know why I'm always on a diet, coz alot of ppl likes breaking my diet!

Bike - Car - Car - Bike

From the Yamaha RXZ to a Hyundai Matrix to the current Toyota Vios... I guess pretty soon, I'll be riding on a bike once more.. If etg goes well & as planned... I would be sending Baby Vios off on 11th Feb 08.. Right after my CNY in M'sia... After assessing my own financial.. Selling off the car would lossen my budget by a fair bit... Most impt thing is... The best source of my happiness turned worst source of unhappiness Can finally be eliminated once & for all... Enough is enough for me.. My suffering & struggle inside me all these while... I can finally let go... I no longer want 2b the grumpy bear like Qiqi said... Bro Bear was once the sunshine of people around him.. Now he seemed 2b carrying a dark cloud over him... Everywhere he went, he seemed to bring the cloudy mood along... I want that to stop here & now... Set me free on my bike once more! A place I truly belong... The 1 & only I can truly call MINE!

10 years down the road!

10 years from now, I would be 35 years old... By then, I see myself having a stable career... Still as loving as I am now with my dear... Both of us would be living in a house we call our home... And probably with a small car of our own.. Dear & I like small cars... Mb a Honda Jazz, Hyundai Getz, Mazda 2... But 10 years down the road, alot of new models would be out.. Hand in hand, we can slowly take our time to view them all.. Preferably, being gamblers, we can travel to Las Vegas for our Honeymoon... I would love to see the famous casinos there! Happiness is living in our own world with only U & Me! With so much to achieve tgt, I think it's really time for us to start planning... I guess I need to meet my financial planner very soon... P/S: The lyrics I dedicate to dear in my previous posts caused afew of those who cared, to qns if I argued with dear... Worry not, my dear friends.. This dear of mine never have a single argument with me that can set both of us mad for more...

Zoe's B'day Party!

Image
Zoe's 40th birthday held at InterContinental Hotel! Dear & I were among the lucky fews to attend. Saw Ah-Jie in real person, got to shake her hands, take photos & the nice food... Though it was abit unorganized, dear & I enjoyed ourselves. =) Before the party starts... Dear! Me! Ah-Jie with Zhiyong from Fm93.3! Look at their happy smiles! Ah-Jie is so humorous, cracked afew jokes... Make everyone burst out laughing.. Dear with her fave DJ - Cruz Teng! She said he's humorous... 1 of the b'day prez from her Fan Club! Some magazine covers of Zoe Tay! Zoe & Serene! Zoe & Ivan! My Queen of Gamblers! The food was ok lah.. But it was not an open buffet style... Waiter & waitress were serving the food & drinks.. So, I guessed that's y most ppl don't dare to eat too much ba.. The party was abit rush as the traffic was heavy... And Zoe have to go for another autograph session @ Bugis Junction... But all in all, being able to see her makes everythin...

"Linger"

Image
It had been a long time since Dear won anything. I was very happy for her when she won the pair of movie tixs to "Linger". It's a show directed by Johnnie To & the main cast are Vic Zhou + Li Bing Bing. For a few times, we got the front row seats.. It was a torture to watch movies sitting at the front.. However, this is the 1st time we found benefit 2b given the front row seats... Especially for dear ba. Coz she immediately became a F4 fan when he walked in... She passed her hp to me & said, "Dear, help me take his photos! I'm shy, don't dare to take." But as we didn't expected his appearance, we didn't bring our camera. So, just make do with these few blur pics lah. =) Vic & the host, Liyi from FM93.3. As for the show, the plot was kind of expected. I wouldn't recommend it for a weekend movie... And definitely not after a long day of work... U'll probably fall aslp 1/2 way through.. Undeniable though, Vic's acting skills ...

What has the world become?

Not so long ago, there was a robber who robbed 2 old women of their valuables. He was caught & sentenced to 10yrs of jail & 3 whips of the cane. (If I didn't rem the verdict wrongly) Just b'coz he was armed @ the time of robbery. And now, the verdict's finally out for a cabby... Who knocked down a guy who had a bright future... The young guy passed away on Mother's Day in 07... Can u imagine the hurt his mum felt on that dreadful day? Yet, this cabby merely got a 1 yr sentence.. Just because his lawyer pleaded for him... With the excuse that the cabby was old & in poor health.. Maybe his poor health is with his brain/thinking.. Did he even think twice before he step on the accelerator? Was he even abit remorseful when he heard the news of the guy's departure? So, being old gives you the right to be rash in taking away one's life? Well, it may be true that even if he has served a heavier sentence.. The life of the guy would still be lost.. But, should...

Simple Countdown to 2008!

Image
Well, self-admitting being old, I choose to stay away from the crowd this year. When I was still self-considered young... With either a shaved head or colorful dyed hair, I was out partying every year... Waiting for the countdown with the crowd... 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR! All that was in the past... I've been there & done that... Though if given a chance, I would still love to get a job... That allows me to have all kind of daring hairstyles... Yet gets a good decent pay... Heez =P So, techno Uncle Ivan chooses to stay at home this time round... Counting down with Gurmit & Michelle on Chn 5... Listening to the neighbours from my & other blocks shouting... "HAPPY NEW YEAR!" Heard the fireworks go off at Causeway Point... Mum & dear were with me at our 4-room HDB flat... Having a simple yet just as meaningful New Year celebration... With booze, bread, soup, tibits... Kind of weird, but who cares? We enjoyed ourselves still! We get to ...

And a little something for my readers in the new year... 一眼瞬间 又是一年 回首人生 默数成败 双手十指 绰绰有余 错过的人 早已远去 是喜是悲 仅是抉择 命运之权 掌握于己 明智之举 鲜明可见 期许来年 一切顺心 No matter where you are or who you are with... On the last day of Year 2007 counting down to 2008... I wish for happiness & health to be with you, my dear readers! Happy New Year! Have Fun!

《甄萱桦 - 真喧哗》 - 鹰艾文

Sometime ago, I took part in HIM's song composing competition. 1 of the rules was the composed song should not be published before. Since I didn't win for my entry, I guess it's ok for me to post my song here now. =) 《甄萱桦 - 真喧哗》 - 鹰艾文 来自不同世界 我们有不同的性格 你我 相遇 相识 相知 那是多么自然的过程 有笑 有哭 有泪 有汗 有了你们 谁还需要那无畏的承诺 当他转身离去 我以为我什么都没有 黑暗 绝望 失落 伤感 像恶魔般占据了心灵 阳光 希望 鼓励 欢笑 我的朋友 你们是我生命中的天使 真喧哗 世界不停转动 真喧哗 烦恼老缠着我 真喧哗 让我好想好想 这一秒这一刻逃离地球 真喧哗 好复杂的生活 真喧哗 思绪拼拼凑凑 真喧哗 生命中有你们 让我爱上真喧哗的人生 旅程里的点点滴滴 很高兴与你们分享 那些美好回忆 早已深深烙印在我心底

I can proudly say I've achieved all my resolutions made this year! 1) I want to have better money sense! - Manage a balance income VS expenditure budget. - Not have impulsive purchases. - No unnecessary expenses to be incurred.
