its given by TP themselves!
I think stomp better appologise... If this small matter they want to make a big deal, later they mall all small maters into big deals... You jay walk later kena saman...

that is not a junction, that is a pedestrian crossing. so you are not suppose to be in that yellow box. it is there for buses to exit onto the main road from the bus stop.
i read the comment from TP and cant help but laugh.
u try this during ur TP test during ur class 3, confirm immediate failure.
get used to it, this is the singapore spirit.
Arguement pending until I get the Advance Theory of Driving Book...
Anyway, Don't you find it a little too funny the way "Police" replied to stomp...? I starting to thing that the "police" here is fiction or stomp decided to ommit a few thing from their response...

See all the comments from this article, all of them hate police so much, they don't believe the police is telling the truth...
I'm now reading The New Highway Code Book 1: Basic Theory of Driving, Section 3 Yellow-Box junction page 72:-
There are 3 exceptions to the yellow-box junction rule
The first one is Situation 1, This involves vehicles vehicles having to wait in the yellow-box whilst making a left or right turn because of padestrian crossing the road. Above diagram. The vehicle may enter the yellow-box area although they cannot complete their left or right turn due to padestrian using the crossing.
I believe this should be the same for the article... Though, I haven get my class 3 yet...

there are alternative thots on this. if you care to read up about it.
if you have a family or dependants, it is a different story.
i wun go into the longs of it, but you believe in it, it is all good (too).
Well, lets hear those alternatives... Insurance is simply one method of investment... There are others from buying shares to simply saving up... but at the end of the day, you need to start EARLY if you don't want to end up like them...

No... if you care to take a look at most insurance policies, 20 years old ++ is actually the perfect age to buy insurance... you are at your prime, no giant commiments yet and insurance prices are at the LOWEST with maximum coverage... but as you get older, the policies are more expensive...
If you want to get insurance, must buy early and young... same with saving for the future... My Senior staff told me, most Singaporean don't know how to use their money and when to start planning for retirement... Many Singapreans decided to start planning for retirement around 40 years old... by then they only have only 10 - 20 years to save up for retirement... compared to those who start planning at 25 years old, thay have an extra 15 years of saving...

... this article, does it reflect an image of a 1st World or Developed Country, called Singapore? World Class, even?
... living in Singapore is apparently fast becoming desperate. Not only do I see mainly old folks collecting cans, I even see younger people doing it! I saw my neighbor of 30+ who has a family with 2 kids collecting cans in the wee hours of morning at the void deck.
... how much more telling, can it get that Singapore is becoming impossible to live in?
And yet there are people whom are 30+ that can survive without collecting cans... e.g. my uncle, my Senior staff, some of the FW who came to Singapore with their families
It all falls down to financial management... those who don't know how to take care of their money will end up poor when they're old... I'm 20 years old and am now considering to buy insurance incase (touch wood) something happens to me... and yet, there are some people who slack around and don't want to work or work but spend every month's pay on entertainment...
Making a living here is not impossible... you MUST use your brain if you want to live a happy life...

too?)
1 & 2 are possible but people with no Children has lesser commitment compared to people with children and yet there are people with children surviving in Singapore without having to collect cans...
3 is unacceptable to me... Parents are ultimate priority... They've raised you, fed you, send you to school, clothed you and loved you and you would chose your spouse whom you known a few years over your parent whom you know ever since you came into this world...?
