PM Lee tweeted for "Singaporeans to remain calm and look out for one another. I'm confident we can manage this if we stay united n work together."
OK, this sounds very nice but AK71 is maybe a bit slow or plain stupid. How is looking out for one another, staying united and working together going to manage the haze situation?
Do I sound negative? I do? Oh, dear. OK, I shall try to be more positive.
Looking out for one another:
"Hey, you there! Look out! You are walking through very bad haze! Try walking around it!"
Staying united:
"Listen up, we must not let some KNS Indonesian minister say that we behave like children. We must let our indignation unite us! KNN!"
Working together:
"Everyone, position your electric fans at home to face south west and switch them on to the maximum speed! We will blow the haze back to Sumatra! Show the world that when Singaporeans work together, we can be fantastic!"
Details, PM Lee, details.

Haha. AK
So that is why there is a word says
官字两张口
Hi yeh,
Well, it is not really that in this case. I mean he is not saying one thing and saying something else later on. He is really not saying anything meaningful here.
Somehow, I get a feeling of helplessness and I think the PM feels that way too. Whether things improve now and in the future depends on the Indonesians.
This incident once again demonstrates how vulnerable, being a small country, Singapore is.
Dear AK, I love ...... the idea, hey Singaporean 大家来 work together! I will standby all fans, pls post actual date and time, I'm ready AK!
Hi JJ,
Er... I was only kidding but thanks for showing solidarity. ;p
In the mean time , a box of 20 N95 masks, going for $20 last week, now sells for up to $42. Business is good!
AK,
You are the ONE :)
"remain calm" - cannot get excited as may breathe more smoke...yak!
"look out for one another"? - cannot even see you...so hazy...where are you?
"stay united n work together" - kidding? better to stay isolated from the smoke and avoid more outdoor work...sorry, got to stop..."cough, cough"...
Hi Tien,
I believe that some people are profiteering out there. :(
I have yet to buy the masks.
Hi tccs,
I enjoyed your interpretation. Hahaha... At least, we have not lost our sense of humour. ;)
the only good news right now (for s'pore) is the fire isn't going to spread until here.
AK et al
Hope you people are OK over there!
Looks pretty bad from the pics!
Hi coconut,
赤壁? O_o
Hi JCK,
It is worse today. I am trying to get my hands on some N95 masks. Went to the polyclinic near my home and they are sold out. :(
At 11AM, PSI 400!
Singapore continued to be affected by the smoke haze from Sumatra brought over by the prevailing winds blowing from the southwest. 85 hotspots were detected over central Sumatra on 20 June 2013. For the next few days the current dry weather and wind conditions are likely to continue. Hazy conditions are thus expected to persist.

ya, this morning while driving, 3 gain city van was surrounded me at the traffic light, after which they all zoom different direction in a hurry.
my friend call last night asking us about the make and prices of aircon, "which one is the good and cheap one?"
in my mind i was saying, "you better get to the nearest shop and get one that can instal right away, still worry about prices!"
his aircon was down more than a year already haha.
By 340, some places already declare state of emergency. Here short-term productivity is considered to be important.
"Profiteering"? This is such a leftist socialist word. The correct word is "free market" , "trading", "business", "competitive" "capitalism" "no-body owes you a living"...
If the people really "look out for one another", there could already be a strike here amongst the outdoor workers and cleaners.
Call it "profiteering", the tourism industry is prospering as well. People are leaving the island.

Sold out!
Wow!
Just saw the PSI is 400.
The Sands can be seen!
Hey.. If you need help with the masks, let me know.
I will send some over.
Hi coconut,
Yup, it is the same idea you had about my friend buying a used car. ;p
Need it now, buy it now!
Hi Tien,
You have planted an idea! Strike! And I don't mean it like they do in the bowling alleys. ;p
Hi JCK,
That is so nice of you. Kamsiah! :)
A friend saw my cry for help and he is going to pass me some. ;p
haha tien, you are my kind of guy.
The last one is the best - I'm going to buy a few more fans :)
Hi KB,
Thank you for your contribution to nation building... and total de-fans. I mean defence. ;p
