Weekly News Flash

I finally have time to sit down and read the newspapers. As I was reading, I thought I should read up for the past week all at one go, and reading news in older newspapers makes the news not new anymore (Duh ...)

Billionaires committing suicides

What the ... The global financial crisis seems to have taken its toll on even the richest around. Even those on Forbes' Richest 100 list wasn't spared either. Simply shocking. Imagine living your entire life in luxury, and realising that everything have been lost overnight. And not just losing your wealth, what follows next is a big deep pool of debts. Must not be easy to swallow all of these down.

But makes me wonder how can things get so bad till you end up taking your own life, is it not a case where you can declare bankruptcy and serve up a jail sentence or something? And at the time when you have all this wealth, did it not came across you that one day you could lose it all? I guess i will never ever find out the answers, because the money we are talking about here could take me an entire life and still not reaching it ....


Singaporean removed from SIA flight after 'bomb' joke

A Singaporean woman was removed from a Singapore Airlines (SIA) flight in Taipei on Tuesday, after she made a joke of carrying a bomb in her hand luggage.

During the incident, Ms Wu was being assisted by an air stewardess to load her hand luggage into the overhead compartment on flight SQ 877, which was bound for Singapore.

The stewardess asked Ms Wu why her luggage felt so heavy, and the latter jokingly responded that it contained a bomb.

Ms Wu was immediately asked to leave the flight and questioned by airport police, causing her to miss the flight. No explosives were found in Ms Wu's luggage, which was removed from the plane and put through a thorough security check.

According to Ms Wu, however, the word "bomb" was first mentioned by the air stewardess. In a television interview with Taiwanese media, she said the air stewardess who was helping her with the heavy luggage casually asked if it contained a bomb. Taking it as a joke, Ms Wu replied that it was, leading to her removal from the flight.

My verdict: 新加坡太太, 吃饱没事做


周慧敏 结婚啦

The husband sure is one lucky guy, not many guys around can so publicly 偷吃, get caught by the media, and the girlfriend, in order to keep him, decided to marry him (although i feel the same as what some papers wrote when interviewing their friends, they have long ago married and this was just for show). 周慧敏 also said this is not the first time knowing he outside 偷吃. But i think at 41 years old, you don't really care about these things already. But still disappointed, aiyo she not ugly mah, why 美女要作贱自己 ...
