Singapore Feed: February 2007

http://singaporefeed.blogspot.com/2007_02_01_archive.html

Wednesday, February 28, 2007. They made the S-Leap. A JAPANESE and a Canadian were chatting during a Danish SuperLiga club's training trip to Turkey a week ago. Guess what the conversation was about? Over a cup of tea, Issey Nakajima Farran and Suguru Hashimoto, both players at Vejle Boldklub, were reminiscing about a country thousands of miles away. The duo played two seasons in the S-League with Japanese club Albirex Niigata. Before arriving in Singapore, both played for youth sides in Japan. It was a ...

Singapore Feed: Encourage older people to downsize their homes in order to be financially viable in their old age

http://singaporefeed.blogspot.com/2007/03/encourage-older-people-to-downsize.html

Saturday, March 3, 2007. Encourage older people to downsize their homes in order to be financially viable in their old age. I refer to the letter, 'Estate-duty laws unfair to the middle income' (ST, March 1). I have often wondered, and for a long time, why there is such a disparity of exemption in estate-duty laws, namely, $9 million for property assets and only $600,000 for all 'Other Assets'.

http://singaporefeed.blogspot.com/2007/03/three-join-hands-to-hone-age-group.html

Singapore Feed: Window changes mar beauty of Punggol 21

http://singaporefeed.blogspot.com/2007/03/window-changes-mar-beauty-of-punggol-21.html

Saturday, March 10, 2007. Window changes mar beauty of Punggol 21. I WOULD like to highlight a situation that is occurring at Punggol 21. Each cluster of flats in Punggol has its unique look and identity. For instance, some flats have azure blue full-height windows. However, many flats in the estate have crossed the five-year mark and have been put on the market. Then comes the renovation. Unfortunately, this often involves a change of windows which are invariably different from the original ones. Encour...

Singapore Feed: Microsoft slams Google over global copyright

http://singaporefeed.blogspot.com/2007/03/microsoft-slams-google-over-global.html

Friday, March 9, 2007. The censure by top Microsoft lawyer Tom Rubin came as the two corporate titans step up their competition in both software and online content. His remarks were a foretaste of a speech he was making in New York on Tuesday to the Association of American Publishers. Google has already said its practices generate more earnings for authors and publishers. Mr Rubin called Google's goal of compiling a vast database of indexed literature, accessible from anywhere, 'a worthy goal'. Mr David ...
