interesting news from singapore…

despite the recession and the 9-11 attacks, singaporeans spent $ 8 billion eating out last year, 1.8 billion meals prepared by the local cooks from over 18,000 food outlets – translated, each person in the island spent $ 2,000 buying food from mostly turo-turo stores. parang kami ni jet, hanggang ngayon take out pa rin dahil wala kaming kasangkapan sa pagluto… hehehe. mahilig talagang kumain ang nga taga rito – at masarap naman ang tsibog, ang ganda ng variety at ang bilis lutuin – malay, indian, chinese, western, thailand, indonesian, japanese, etc. etc. considering that the island is smaller than quezon city – $8B of take out is really huge. kaya pala naka BMW ang mga may-ari ng turo-turo dito.

malaysia wants to renegotiate its deal of supplying water to singapore… at the moment, all our water comes from mainland malaysia. singapore currently pays 3 cents per 100 gallons on a contract that extends till 2061. the malaysians want singapore to pay 60 cents per 100 gallons… and some malaysians are calling their government to shut down the gripo, if singapore does not negotiate. abangan…

na miss ko yung barkada ko. they’ve been more than friends to me – they’re my brothers, really. we’ve been classmates since kindergarten, all through elementary and high school in an all boys school somewhere in Kalookan City. We’ve kept in touch since then and see each other at least once a month. We have out own e-group and we exchange e-mail with the ones that are abroad (like me!). We’ve been kumpare’s many times over to many inaanaks, sometimes do business together, most of the time, we just hang out and visit the different drinking places in QC, mostly we meet at Pepetons where the beer is cheap and the pulutan is excellent…sisig, pusit, tuna belly, tokwa, sizzling bulalo, krispy ulo ng baboy (anong tawag nila doon? hmmmm……teka let me remember…. ahhhh KapalMuks!) hehehe.

one month and a half! that’s been the time i’ve been away from home. somehow, i’ve managed to get used to living here in singapore. somehow, riding a bus from the west coast to the psa building seems so normal. somehow, chicken rice, curry and roti prata tastes ok. somehow living in an HDB Flat is the most natural thing to do inspite of the fact that you feel like you’re in a pigeon hole with a thousand other birds. somehow, singapore feels like home.
