Were you born in Singapore? My Father was born in Pattani and he said that in those days probably till the present day people who lived along the border of Thailand and Malaysia had the right to dual citizenship. -

You remember the horror movie' It's Alive' when it screened in Singapore so many people pingsan in the theater and at least two people died of heart attack.Those days it was too frightening but today it is really like cartoon.The part when the milkman was attacked by the whatever creature that was in the baby pram.....and the milk from the broken bottles got mixed with blood to form a stream of pink river.Sianz -
