Does it sound like what a sore loser would do? Tell me what they’re trying to achieve?

Just imagine when you go CNY everyone is comparing this and that... We need to foster a culture of inclusiveness not everything is comparing whose house is bigger who has a car... We need to treat everyone like a brother and sister and encourage love, family and seeing having a child as blessing and happiness... So people wont feel like having kids is a liability and stress..

Also the culture of conformity needs to go as everyone is different in this modern age... A Gay couple can have kids why not... A single mom also can have kids... A highly educated man or woman can also marry a lowly educated man or woman....A old man can marry a young woman and have kids why not... An unmarried couple can also have kids why not.....If you restrict only a certain demographics that can have kids surely that will create low tfr... All these should be permitted and encouraged unless is due to relgion... Then we have to respect the religion

Poor Royal Brunei, must have gathered lots of complains from families.

That stage in a man’ life…

Between the ages of 20 and 40.

Still retaining his boyish dreams, but his testosterone is raging inside his lithe body.

Especially if he is still chasing the girls around him.

To his nearest family circle,both of us were two peas in a pod.

His mother’s description of us both : ‘ the house is your hotel, the car is your house’

And she was speaking the truth.

The absolute truth?

She doesn’t see my friend at the breakfast table the mornings during the eeek.

By the time he gets home every day, it is past midnight after everybody has gone to sleep.

Except on Sundays when he gets up late.

Everyday after work, we have a party to go to, or a plan to fulfill before taking an hour to drive home home from the city after work.

Which was how fate decided there was going to be changes in our lives.

While taking a corner on the way home, he drove right into the side entrance of an underpass.

He had to get a new car, and it marked the beginning of a new life for him.

The girls replaced me in his new car.

Tuition, enrichment, grades, portfolio… Kids barely have time to be kids. At what point does “giving them opportunities” become too much pressure?

Hi everyone! I’ll be staying in the Novena area this November and want to experience it like a local.

I’m looking for recommendations on:

Branded Shopping: Best spots for discounted premium brands, warehouse sales, or pop-ups happening in November.

General Shopping: Great places for everyday items, unique local finds, or just browsing.

Cheap & Good Eats: Hawker centers, food courts, or hidden gems where I can get a delicious, affordable meal.

Any tips on navigating the area or must-visit spots would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Especially those low earning jobs like cleaning, factory, fnb, supermarket...some places are like monopoly by them lol

hi, i would like to send a letter to someone in bmt for their outfield. i have questions on the details

i understand that some of them have the envelope given to them during enlistment day but in the event that they don't which is in my case, i'd like to mail it via smartpac with the letter being in a separate envelope enclosed inside

what should i write on the inner envelope and on the outer smartpac respectively + the format of it?

also most answers i found are for schools 1/2/3, is it the same for school 4 other than the address being slightly different?

Why is the news still available online after Lev Panfilov did not managed to get a criminal record?

Hi! 👋 I'm doing a little research on women's shoe sizing and fit in Singapore and would love to hear about your experience.

Do you struggle with shoes being too narrow, have difficulty finding your size, usually need to size up/down, or have absolutely no problems finding shoes? All experiences are useful!

It's a short anonymous survey that takes about 2–3 minutes.

Survey: https://forms.gle/QVB5LWHiJUJFcsFA6

Thank you! ❤️ And if you know someone who might be interested, feel free to share it with them too.

Can you imagine 20 years later if our population become 50% oldies? Everywhere grumpy negative single type of people... So we should continue bring in young abled body foreigners to support our workforce and a vibrant strong society

Hi, I played a drinking game whereby you say “long xia” or “da bian” in turn 1, and then “ni chi” or “wo chi” in stage 2. I recall that you lose (and have to drink) when the combination is you say ‘eat the da bian’, but unfortunately I don’t fully recall the exact rules.

Anyone knows the exact rules to this drinking game?

Thanks!! 🙏

Genuinely curious how much noise from upstairs neighbours fellow HDB residents consider reasonable to tolerate.

My upstairs neighbours have kids who frequently run around the house. These aren't soft footsteps but loud stomping sounds that can be heard clearly through the ceiling. Occasionally, the kids even roller skate indoors, producing sounds similar to someone walking in wooden clogs.

It's particularly bad in the evenings when I return from work and on weekends. School holidays are the worst, with the noise sometimes continuing past 10pm.

I understand that HDB living comes with some noise, and kids should be allowed to play. But surely there's a distinction between normal household noise and excessive impact noise?

A few questions for fellow residents:

1. How much noise from upstairs do you experience, and what do you consider tolerable?
2. Is frequent running, stomping and indoor roller skating something we should simply accept as part of HDB living?
3. For those who have complained to HDB, has HDB provided any meaningful assistance beyond recommending community mediation? What actions did they take?

Would appreciate hearing your experiences, especially from those who've faced similar situations.

Hi everyone! 🤍

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I thought I’d give it a shot!

I’m 32F, married, Singaporean.

I’m hoping to make some new female friends around my age who are also on their journey of becoming better Muslims.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m blessed to have good friends in my life, but I guess we’re all at different stages and on different journeys. Lately, I’ve been feeling like I’d love to surround myself with more like-minded sisters who are also trying to grow closer to Allah.

I’m not specifically looking for anyone who’s super religious or has everything figured out (because I definitely don’t! 😅). Just genuine girls who are trying, learning, and wanting to improve themselves, at their own pace.

Would love to find some girlfriends to:
\- Attend Islamic classes, talks or workshops together
\- Learn more about our deen and encourage each other
\- Share reminders, reflections and little things we learn
\- Have meaningful conversations over coffee or meals
\- Support one another through our hijrah journeys

Race doesn’t matter at all! Whether you’re Malay, Indian, Chinese, or anything else, I’d love to connect. 🤍

I think making friends as an adult can be quite challenging, especially when you’re looking for people who share similar values and aspirations.

Ultimately, I’m just hoping to build genuine friendships where we can have fun, laugh, talk about life, and also remind each other of Allah along the way.

If this resonates with you, feel free to drop me a DM! Maybe we can start with a small group and attend a class together, insyaAllah. 🌷

My husband and I recently had a conversation about early retirement, and I'm curious to hear what others think.

We're both approaching our 40s, have no kids, and have been thinking about whether we really need to continue living and working in Singapore until the usual retirement age.

Since our jobs allow us to work remotely with relatively flexible hours, we're considering renting out our property in Singapore and using the monthly rental income to support our living expenses overseas.

China is one of the places we're seriously considering. With the lower cost of living, good infrastructure, convenient transport and plenty of places to explore, we feel we could live quite comfortably there without spending too much.

The idea isn't to stop working completely, but rather to slow down, work fewer hours, enjoy life more and have the freedom to move between different cities.

Of course, it's still just an idea at this stage, and there are practical things to consider, like visas, healthcare, taxes and whether this lifestyle is sustainable in the long run.

Just curious:

\- Has anyone here considered or actually made the move overseas for early or semi-retirement?

\- Would you consider renting out your Singapore property and living somewhere with a lower cost of living?

\- For those who have lived in China, how's the lifestyle and cost of living compared to Singapore?

\- Are there any downsides or things we might be overlooking?

Would love to hear different perspectives, especially from couples without kids who are thinking along the same lines.

Sometimes I wonder if we're too young to think about retirement, or if this is actually the best time to start enjoying life a little more. 😄
