This is Singapore

picked up a copy of newpaper today and got some stuff to share after reading it..

There was a python spotted at e construction site of e circle line, and guess wat? e police was called in and they caught e snake..

hmmm.. there wasnt an whole article on it, but den again.. isnt it amazing wat our police can do..??

oh and then there was e baby bonus issue.. to which i find it troubling.. mayb my mindset will change if im e parent..

there were complaints by soon to be mothers abt e baby bonus excluding them.. there was also this comment that, how can they be forgotten when they are answering to the nation's call for more babies.. (referring to the implementation date of e baby bonus which was initially 1 Jan 09)

from my point of view, shldnt a couple have accessed and plan its financial status and got mentally prepared for responsibility and stuff during their baby-making decision and erm actions?? (unless accident den i gt nth to say..)

from my pt of view, they are treating their baby like a money making opportunity?? its like since they going to have it, shldnt i get it too.. kinda like too money-grabbing.. and some of them are actually regretting that they are giving birth b4 the date of e bonus..

hmm mayb baby bonus shld have a change of name? stop treating babies like commodities.. i mean, baby bonus is a scheme to assist couples in days of rising cost, it shld not be e factor why couples want to make babies..

singaporeans.. we are most affected when money is concerned..
