erhh.. the places i am visiting are hardly the tourism type... not the usual "tour agent recommended one"...the "gems" places..Originally posted by elindra:The have a Mola-Mola ?
I thought the Japanese like to eat them too
eg. Air ballon to see diamond dust in mid air type..
windcity...endure the wind and cold...etc... -
All of that, I guess. Actually, China has a lot to offer and there are just so many places that one can go year after year (I'm referring to the non-city places).Originally posted by choco B:What attraction does China hold for the SO? Is it the history, culture... scenery?
Where is that? And what's mola mola?Originally posted by the Bear:if Japan, i'd want to go to that place where they have the giant aquarium with Whale Sharks in the main tank..
or the other giant aquarium which has Mola-Mola
-
This is a Mola-Mola -
Yes there is that...
But I have a feeling Wanda will happily spend that little extra for toilets with full frills (heated seat, buttons galore) rather than suffer doorless toilet cubiclesOriginally posted by elindra:What about China is cheaper then Japan? -
*me mysteriously appears in a puff of smoke*
Just got home from school.
I was planning to study in school, but after an hour or so, I felt so lethargic that I went straight home.
I'm still pissed off at the piss-poor accounting procedures at my former workplace. It was a total waste of my time for me to go down there this morning. -
Waa....heated toilet seat... *raised eyebrows*Originally posted by choco B:Yes there is that...

I've heard about the "vanity" (or something?) buttons which they press to hide the sound when the ladies pee...
Doorless toilet cubicles are still ok, some toilets dun even have walls...just squat by a long drain one-by-one. Worst is no flush. >_< -

Ya, it is a gentle flushing sound Japanese toilets are really something, we do miss them afterwards. My favourite is the heated seat, and the wash and blow-dry function. LOLOriginally posted by Wanda:Waa....heated toilet seat... *raised eyebrows*

How much time did you and the Japanese spend in the toilet?Originally posted by choco B:Ya, it is a gentle flushing sound Japanese toilets are really something, we do miss them afterwards. My favourite is the heated seat, and the wash and blow-dry function. LOL -
I would get it if I were rich and can buy my dream house I think I'd spend more quality time on the heated throne than an Osim chair

And more dirt is dug up on XedoOriginally posted by tortoise55:Interesting article here from CNA Forums, just some information thou, do not take it too seriously.
Mr Peter Go and Mr Sing were the directors of Games Mart which closed down. Check out ACRA report at the link.
Filed under: Info — Darth Grievous @ 17:10
The recent victory of PacNet (or PI) over Xedo seems to have taken the Internet by storm, and I have heard many talk of people wanting to jump ship once their current contract expire.
Personally, I not only approve what these fellows intend to do, I will actually encourage them to do so! Because on a more personal - and selfish - level, I really donÂ’t mind some of these downloaders go choke up PIÂ’s bandwidth so that I can have smoother surfing on SingNet or Starhub. Hiak hiak hiak.
Anyway, from an unverified source, I was told that XYSing KYSing of Xedo (and his fellow director), were also directors of a defunct company called Games Mart. (And my own searches on ACRA confirmed this. ACRA reports found here: Odex | Games Mart)
This source informed me that back around 1999, Games Mart Pte Ltd was caught for counterfeit goods (primarily Sony Playstation stuff), and 2 of their directors and an employee were subsequently charged.
These two directors - names omitted as unverified - were found guilty and sentenced to 15 months of jail, along with an employee named Jason, who was sentenced to 10 months. (I have so far failed to verify this and I am not sure if any news on this court case can be found on the Internet to support these unverified claims. It does not seem likely I could get my hands on the court reports like these cases of people getting sued by the Public Prosecutor here and here.)
Personally, I would really like some solid verification of the Games Mart case, and I would appreciate anyone who would point me in the direction of a reputable source of such information. I am personally quite upset with the fact that some people had actually told me that they wouldnÂ’t take blogs and forum comments into serious considerations, but would take note of whatever single-page piece of poo Xedo had currently put up on their site. If that is a testimony of just what low esteem Blogosphere is held by people, then there is really no point for any attempt at Blog journalism, because those people with serious content are discredited in one broad stroke!
Anyway, what I did find in Google, was a brief mention in the comment section of a blog by someone of the moniker of Beowulf that some anime released by Xedo were actually released previously under Games Mart.
While I am not attempting to imply anything here, but it appears that the bad quality of Xedo products has gone a long way back.
And though this really does not justify the very act of downloading anime ‘illegally’, it does explain why some of the people are downloading fan-subs and not buying Xedo products in spite of their attempts at lowering prices.
Food for thought: Is it not necessary to consider these facts, when the argument that downloading is hurting sales is presented in court by Xedo? After all, it appears that there is a long history of people who did want to get their copies legally not getting what their moneyÂ’s worth.

It's a nice fishing village, except there are too many Singaporeans there...some even drive down from Desaru to eat seafood.Originally posted by Celtic Knot:huh..tell me more leh...i never been there....tell me about the place and what I expect from there...I prepare my cam to shoot there..

Just be pleasant, don't act too loud (like some Sg folks), or dress too loud (e.g showing midriff tops), and don't compare everything to Sg like some obnoxious ppl...and enjoy the kampong. -
