As you all know, I have been eating cai peng everyday for this year, with only egg and tofu. Chap Chye Png has been a staple food for Singaporeans for decades. It is easy to decide what you want to eat, depending on what are the dishes offered by the stall holder. Normally it will be vegetables, egg, tofu, meat, seafood, fishes, etc. You have the basic staple food with choices like white rice, brown rice, porridge, fried bee hoon, kway tiao or noodles. Lastly, it comes with choice of gravys to top up the dish. It is cheap and good for the working people and can easily take away for them to eat in offices. The more dishes you select, the more expensive it is. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_rice Economy rice, found in Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand, refers not to a specific dish in the Singaporean, Malaysian and Thai pantheon of cuisine, but rather to a type of food or a food stall commonly found in hawker centres, street vendors or food courts in these countries. Economy rice stalls typically consist of a glass case containing anywhere from 10-15 troughs of cooked food, including meat, vegetables, eggs and tofu. Customers select any combination of these dishes, which are served accompanied by a portion of steamed white rice. In Singapore, it is more common to find the food on open troughs kept warm by hot water and an electric heater below. Better quality economy rice stalls have warmers beneath the troughs of food which ensure that food is served hot. What kind of dishes do you normally like to order for your chap chye png?

It had been widely publicised in the press that many Singaporean had been conned in MY over the scratch-and-win scams and still Singaporean still falling for it. I had posted once is this threads of several couples been conned at the car park of Makotar Parade, Malacca in the form of lucky draws & scratch-and win. Its happen again on Monday, this time at a petrol kiosk in Johor Baru. As reported in today New Paper and last Monday Sin Min Daily. The report: His holidays made him poorer by $6,500/-. All because Mr. Zhang, 40, a Singaporean businessman, fell victim to the "scratch-and-win" syndicate. Mr. Zhang was approached at a Johor Baru petrol station (name not given) just as he was about to drive back to Singapore. He said that a Chinese woman in her 20s approached him, asking if he was interested in taking part in a lucky draw. He agreed, thinking there was nothing wrong with trying his luck. He scratched a card that the woman gave him, and it revealed a picture of several cars. The woman congratulated him and asked him to follow her to an office near the petrol station. At the office, a man claimed to be the woman colleague told Mr Zhang that he stood a chance of winning a PDA, a car, cooker hoods, television sets and a trip to Japan. Mr Zhang was told that if he paid RM15,000 ($6,500) for taxes and fees, he would have a chance of winning four cars. Believing the man, Mr Zhang made payment with his credit card. When he scratched the booklet, it showed he had won only four cooker hoods. The man refused to give a refund, saying that Mr Zhang was unlucky and could not blame the company. Paying $6,500/- for 4 cooker hoods...... Its show that the man is either plain ignorant or boh chap attitude as he believe that it will not happen to him. Ignorant is out as he is a businessman and should able to think and make decision. So......... it left to his attitude that misfortune will not happen to him or blinded by the 20s years old ..... Also reported that billions reaped in annual profits as millions of consumers cheated in MY.
