Recently, I was advised by a specific store to apply for membership, which would grant me a storewide discount of 15% for just a one-time purchase as a new member. I spent 20 minutes filling out the membership form on my phone, but I was unable to submit it. Three other young staff members, including one IT guy, tried to help me, but in the end, everyone gave up, saying they didn't know the reason for the issue.; March 21, 2025 5:28 PM

My colleagues—who work in finance like I do in Shenton Way—mentioned that their parents had texted them about the election in Singapore. Some of these parents are from various Asian countries, while others are from developed nations. Although my colleagues responded to their families, they refused to share what the messages contained. The only thing we heard was that they advised their families to delete the texts. This leads us to assume that they still hold onto the mindset of the LKY era.; May 05, 2025 7:04 AM

At the end of the evening, she asked a friend to try her home baked cake. Her friend declined saying she was diabetic and not a "sweet" eater. The lady felt offended that her friend insulted her cake was sweet, saying she measured everything precisely from the cookbook. What the friend meant was she was not into DESSERTS.

In some regions, the term "sweets" can indeed refer specifically to desserts or sugary treats. This highlights the importance of clarity in communication and the impact of regional slang or colloquialisms.

Such misunderstandings can strain relationships, as seen in this case, where one person felt offended without the intention of causing offence. It shows how vital it is to consider not just the words used, but also the possible interpretations behind them based on cultural and personal contexts.

If you are an American, you will know that Michael Bloomberg is a household name. By the way, the company have their backs on the staffs, and paying high-flyer defence says money is not an issue. The big issue is they want to defend their rights for the world to see that if they published an article they stand by what is true. Even if Singapore wins, the world knows what is true. The more the details come to light the more questionable the whole deal seems especially in a first world country like Singapore! It would have been more common in countries like Malaysia, Indonesia or even Cambodia.

If remember correctly, when the Ridout case came to light, the former Prime Minister was asked to initiate an investigation volutarily, which led to CIMB being called in. Once CIMB cleared them, they began to file lawsuits.

However, for this more serious case, there was no voluntary investigation. Instead, there were just threats of and lawsuits. Cannot be because different PM right? This one no calibre one, only know how to talk about off topics which are not related. Give credit when due-he a upright fella and authentic.; April 16, 2026 1:06 PM
