Malaysia wants to build a nuclear power plant in 10 yrs time..
But one in upnorth said the way they spend $$, in another 7 yrs M'sia is bankrupt
Originally posted by the Bear:well, the PRCs want compensation after the NZ earthquake...
really..
Fat hope, the money is needed to rebuild the city, not pay for their one-child idiocy. And did they compensate their own earthquake victims? I bet not.
speaking of nuclear plant, I rmb someone (should be the infamous hitman) started a thread on when is s'pore gonna built one..

Ytd's ST carried portion of Dr M's book
I face palm after reading it.
Actually Lau Lee was smart, let Dr M talk talk, let him put 1 price I think was 60 sen... LKY say ok.. Later Dr M said too cheap.
As for CPF $$ stereotype against W. Malaysians... Eh, dunno is it Dr M's time... W. Malaysians going to E. Malaysia needs passport.

the only thing you cannot get there is char kway teow.. because i think the management had a big falling out with the owner of stall which they planned to bring in
now... Even if Dr M is still PM of upnorth, he can't threaten us w/ anything anymore..
We're not signing for his water ... So the KTM land issue is settled

There is like no decent char kway teow in SG these days
They use palm oil and not lard
It makes a hell lot of diff
And the ironic thing these days is that it's coz palm oil is cheaper
The health thingy is bs. If u want to eat char kwey tweo, u're not looking to be healthy
Originally posted by SevenEleven:

yes.. and... $5 at a food court for a lousy version of the stuff?
i think good food is harder and harder to find with all the stalls not taking pride in their work and farming everything out to the PRCs who don't give a shit.. this is worth every penny

i think it was more of a falling out over money and all kinds of conditions before the owner would go.. so in the end, the management said to hell with it all..
the place is contracted to open for 6 years
