    Miss Singapore World 2009 - Miss Ris Low
    Ladies & Gentlement.. presenting.. Ms Sillypore World 2009 - Ris Low



    Ok.. 1 more picture of her...





    Not bad right?


    Ris Low was crowned Miss Singapore World 2009. The pageant was held on Friday 31st July. Miss Low will represent Singapore in the Miss World 2009 pageant to be held on December 12, 2009 in Johannesburg, South Africa.



    BUT.. wait a minute... nope, she is not going SA anymore. She gave up her crown.
    http://www.straitstimes.com/Breaking%2BNews/Singapore/Story/STIStory_435832.html?vgnmr=1


    first.. newspaper/netizen condemn about her English.. then followed by her past conviction for credit card fraud exposed...making it worst. S'porean complaining (as usual), its a shame.. she shouldn't represent S'porean at the international pagent level. and finally she gave up and resign!.. poor girl.. sumore i find her interview with storm is hilarious. Well, its time for her to move on & i hope people should set her free and stop pesterting. Just like how the media works, until another BIG gossip thing surface, poeple will move on to the new one. remember my previous entry on "Battle of Crab"? Basically, Miss Ris's new already took over the headline.


    check out her interview with Stomp.sg. READ the text desc on the right side of the video!






    and what the local says.

    Battle of Crab


    can you guess which is from MY & SG?


    “We cannot continue to let other countries hijack our food. Chilli crab is Malaysian. Hainanese chicken rice is Malaysian. We have to lay claim to our food,” she told reporters after launching the Malaysia International Gourmet Festival yesterday.


    Quoted from Dr NG YY's blog. http://blog.drngyenyen.com/?p=531


    Thats where everything started.


    Not following the news?
    See what MY paper said

    See what SG paper said

    Food is all about deliciousness. Who cares where it is originated and whether it is authentic? How true the statement is. My view on this is pretty neutral, i don't care where is it originally from, as long as the food is good and tasty, then is good food lah. If you have time to spare, you can dig the origin on it. But need to tell the press about plant to claim This Dish & That Dish belongs to Malaysian. So if it's patent (is that possible?) it, can you imagine paying copyright in the future for every nasi lemak that you ate? If unnecessary to make a mountain out of a molehill.

    Mixed feeling on that however, if we Malaysian would like to claim, claim it as "Penang Asam Laksa", "Ampang Yong Tou Fu" or "Klang Ba Ku Teh", rather that generalise it as "Chilli Crab", which in turn could stir more debates on it. The term "hijacked our food" might seems to heavy. Being part of Asia, our culture & tradition is very close to each other when it comes to food, language, custome, costume etc. If pretty hard to draw the line clear.

    On the flip side, SG press seems to be over reacted by covering the front page of local papers, magnifying the issue. Cummon, u got better things to put on your frontpage right? They are just taking everyone single opportunity to taruh us. Again, that is unnecessary.

    Come to think of it, what will PAS has to say if we declare Ba Kut Teh as national food? :P

    p/s: From Left, clock wise, 1. Punggol Black Pepper Crab (SG), 2. Long Beach Sea Food - Black Pepper Crab (SG), 3. Long Beach Sea Food - Long Beach Sea Food, 4. Restaurant Wong Poh - Butter Crab (MY). Did u manage to guess all the crab correctly? :P Oh, btw, if you really want to compare, MY got better butter crab & SG got better Pepper crab....my 2 cents.



    oh yeah.. an unrelated post. Just wanna share a local short film from 15Malaysian titled "Rojak".

    10 things SG is Better than MY
    1. Transport system is well planned & organized.
    but the ERP are expensive!

    2. their GOV build lots of HDB for the people
    but the houses are over priced!

    3. their Authorities take speedy action
    thats bcoz the people love to complain

    4. Their currency are "bigger" than MY
    which is why I am there

    5. They got nice Pepper Crab!
    the chef are from MY :P

    6. their shopping malls are concentrated and inter-link
    ok..we got Bukit Bintang as well

    7. They got faster broadband
    but "downloading" is strictly prohibited

    8. People here are highly educated.
    Thats bcoz u cant get a decent well paid job if u dont have any paper. Throw a stone, u will easily hit a MBA.

    9. Generally speaks good english
    small population speaks with ang mo slang.. sigh

    10. Cars are way cheaper than malaysia..
    but u have to pay Certificate Of Entitlement aka COE. see the latest pricing here

    http://www.oneshift.com/pdb/lcoe.php

    Category A - 18,020
    Category B - 19,289

    A Car (1600cc & Below) & Taxi
    B Car (Above 1600cc)

    Another 2 years & 5 months for me to move on to a new role!

    i think i should write more and probably revamp my blog soon.
