We studied bout Uniquely Singapore in secondary school. I remebered it touch on the many famous attractions in Singapore. For example, the merlion lah and blah blah blah! Though it still amazes me on why tourist actually come here to see these boring things, i find that we have one very important area that we have not promoted.



That is our: TAXI DRIVERS!!!

So far, so far i have not heard of nor do i know of any other country where the taxi drivers are as "Mulit-lingual" as those here. One minute they are speaking in simple english and the next u hear the extremly fluent string of hokkien coming out from their mouths. It has never failed to amaze me. The transion from the english to hokkien is really amazing! It goes from an english greeting to hokkein conversation with the valgarities added in it in a matter of minutes. Was at the airport that they and witnessed this and thought i would write about it. Really intresting stuff. Should go to the airport one day and jsut witness it for yourself. Its really helarious and cool.

That is uniquely SINGAPORE!!! haha

on a lighter note: Saw Ezanne lee while i was walking after dinner on friday. She is SOOO CUTE!!!
