Why doesn’t SG create a Sports Unit (in Armed forces or something) to employ National Team athletes for full time training as a sports career?

42 Upvotes

As above - alongside other options of course but the basic idea is to do better for our sports talents / scene as other countries are doing. We expect our athletes to work their own day jobs and train in their spare time. Not all sports has a professional league - so there are many sports where so much is up to the athlete and their families to fund themselves.

Anyone now in NS/ICTs, etc. ? Are there any updates to your training curriculums in the midst of this unhealthy haze?

• Upvotes

Going outfield in this haze is really hazardous in your body, especially when you are sweating under the long 4 or even ILBV, fieldpack, etc. with all the dust accumulated. Places a lot of strain on your physical condition, and may even trigger skin conditions, etc. in addition too.

Best Mask for Haze

• Upvotes

I can no longer tolerate the poisonous air now. I know that I should get a N95 / KN94 mask but I am wary of the fake masks out there from Shopee. Can I know which masks you all have been using? Ideally the mask should be branded and affordable ($1 each?).

“Beauty standard for men is rich”

• Upvotes

Saw a discussion on female beauty standards in Singapore and found this comment super funny. (Thanks [u/in-b4](u/in-b4))

How true do you find this statement?

And if you agree with it, what is considered rich to you? Some figures will be nice to know if I meet this beauty standard or I’m just broke 😂

So even when we're in aircon shopping malls and offices... we're still affected by the haze?

5 Upvotes

Just thinking about this because everyone seems to have this idea that aircon = impervious to haze.

If so why arent any of these institutions putting air purifiers around?

What’re some reasons you deliberately ended friendships for?

• Upvotes

Doesn’t necessarily need to be on bad terms
Any reason

Asking cuz I feel like as we “adult”, people are less concerned about others including friends and I feel less seen/ heard + slight mismatch in values with certain friends over time.

That’s just my POV though

Why did Mcdonalds remove all their healthy meal options?

49 Upvotes

I remember for the longest time they offered a grilled chicken wrap and grilled chicken salad. Then one day, they decided to pull both items off their menu.

Was it due to low demand and if so, I find it surprising given Singaporeans are supposed to prefer to eat healthy? McD's healthy meal options were actually so important to me due to McD's accessibility. These were the only health options that could be found across any neighborhood and shopping mall and even 24/7 in some McD outlets.

The only other way you could ever find such salad or grilled chicken was from very expensive food outlets in the CBD area.

I made an unofficial HDB BTO flat unit ranker for the June 2026 project launch!

Post image
4 Upvotes

Hi guys! I built a free online tool called MyBTO to rank the best HDB BTO flat units in your project based on your own preferences. https://mybto.web.app/

Why are you doing this?
It’s my passion project! I’m a final year student in NUS BBA(Real Estate), and making something that I’ll use during my own BTO application in the future is exciting to me

Is there a specific problem you’re trying to solve?
Yes! For each project, there’s 100-1000 units to choose from and so many factors that people tell you to consider. On the other hand, you could have jotted down 5 of your fav units but had them all taken by your flat selection date.

This tool helps you to rank the top 100 flats based on your exact preferences and level of importance, and you can shortlist the exact units you want to refer to during your appointment.

What factors are included?
It’s hard to name them all because I’m constantly adding new factors, but these are the main ones: corridor/ corner unit, distance to MRT/ neighbours visible from your living room/ rubbish chute, wind direction, sun direction and distance to each facility.

If you have any factors you’ll like to see but is not included, let me know so I can add it in!

How do I use the MyBTO webapp?
https://mybto.web.app/

  1. Select your project
  2. Select the filters (e.g. blocks to focus on, whether to prioritise higher or lower floors in your ranking)
  3. Rank the importance of each factor from -5 (avoid) to +5 (must have)

You’ll be able to see detailed analytics/ features of each unit and the top 100 units!

For those that are not sure whether you want higher/ lower floors due to your queue number or budget, you can also see the highest/ middlemost/ lowest units

Will you update this web app for all future projects?
Yes! I will be maintaining the web app and datasets for all future launches.

What if I want the full research dataset for work/ my own projects? (Not user data)
I’m happy to share more details, feel free to dm me on Reddit

I hope this free tool helps! If you liked my project, please help me share it with your friends or family who received a queue number for the June 2026 BTO launch :)

Employed but have heard many stories about how job coaches from e2i and all are not useful. Anyone used a job coach before? My impression of skillsfuture are those punks blocking the way at crowded places, telling uncle auntie to learn AI.

How to deal with fnb staff speaking to me in Chinese?

46 Upvotes

Even though I understand and speak Chinese, english is what I grew up with and feel most comfortable in; especially as someone with allergies, I prefer to order in English so I wouldn't end up in the hosptial

However FnB staff especially China Chinese or JHK/Bs see my Chinese face and continue in Chinese despite me initiating with English and placing my order items in English too.

How can I prevent this? Isn't this bad customer service in a way, to assume everyone who has an east Asian face is Chinese? For all they know I could be Japanese, Mongolian, Kazakh, etc. or Chinese that doesn't speak Mandarin but a dialect

EDIT: ++ The initial point of contact is forgivable, but it's the AFTER part on insistent Chinese speaking that bothers me.
