I saw something interesting at Kian Seng yesterday
While we were eating halfway, a large group of Malays/Indians walked in
And we assumed they are Muslims coz the females were all wearing the tudang and the men wore the Songkrat (sp??)
Everyone was gawking at them coz Kian seng is 100% not halal and they ordered Tiger Beer for drinks
And they ordered the food too....I didn't see the dishes but it sure hell was an eye opener.

But I bet even if they were Singaporeans none in their community will see coz the rest were all chinese
It's like the last time we went to Crystal Jade Palace to eat and saw some Pakistanis eating there....but those 100% from overseas

Correct terms are 'tudung' and 'songkok'.
I often see a bunch of Malay men in songkok deep in a Tiger Beer togok-ing session at the coffeeshop near my place.
And while working at 7 Eleven while awaiting enlistment, I've come across Malay men buying Wanbao just for the sake of checking out the Toto/4D results.
Go figure.

depends on the individual. i've muslim friends who frequent non-halal outlets - just as long as they don't consume pork, it's ok - their rationale. i don't have a strong view on this. -
my arab friend loves won ton noodles

lasik will correct your astigma, short sightedness .. but lao hua .. cannot be corrected ..

I think I told you guys before eh .....
when I was in pattaya bout a year after 9-11, when the afghanistan war was in full swing ... someone brought me to this underground dive there ......
it was during cobra gold R&R, so the town was full of US marines ....
it was an interesting sort of place, hordes of arab men smoking sheeshas and drinking heineken by the bucket full .... side by side along young crew-cut marines from some wyoming farm, looking for that promised tail their recruiters must have promised them ... everyone with local bar girls draped around their arms .....

but i don't have lao hua yet ..
Consult a doctor .. I think even if they can correct lao hua also not much use because it'll come back again .. long sightedness is caused by muscles degeneration due to aging ..

oh, they are, trust me .....
I don't have a problem with anyone eating pork or drinking, or choosing not to ... it's everyone's personal choice ....
but what really disgusts me is when people get hypocritical about it ....
There's this Iraqi fellow I know back in the uni, grad student, "refugee" of course, every day he'd rant about how evil the US is, how decadent and morally corrupt they are, yadda yadda ... and no thanks, he doesn't drink either .....
but everyone knows he's sports-bonking this japanese exchange student ... and yes, he doesn't drink ...... beer that is ..... he nails the hard stuff ..... wild turkey bourbon for this fellow ...
and when saddam was caught, he went wild and cheering ... for one day, the americans were heros ..... the next day, same old shit again ....
no one at the student hovel bothered with him after a while ....

Seriously I don't care what they eat or drink ...but it's like the hypocrisy that I can't stand and they adopt this "holier than thou" attitude
This applies to those fanatical happy clappers too
