Carrefour leaves Singapore, Suntec City & Plaza Sing stores to shutHypermarket Carrefour will be exiting Singapore after the global retailer announced on Tuesday that it will shut its two stores located at Suntec City and Plaza Singapura before the end of the year. Its spokesman said in a statement that the decision was made because expansion and growth prospects of the company do not allow it reach a leadership position. In Singapore, Carrefour's main competitors are supermarket chain NTUC FairPrice and the Dairy Farm Group of supermarkets. The closure will affect more than 380 employees. The spokesman said that it intends to work with other retailers to find jobs for its staff. ======== i quite like the hyperstore.... for christmas and cny shopping...

Think it's almost like autumn, and many leaves are brown and falling all round you? You are not quite wrong, you know, for Singapore's persistently dry weather has led to more dry, fallen leaves filling streets, pavements and drains, the National Environment Agency (NEA) said on Thursday. Twenty-five per cent more dry leaves were swept from the streets in February, compared with December 2013. In January, 15 per cent more had to be cleared, it said. The dry spell "has led to heavy leaf shedding and an accumulation of leaves in some public areas", said an NEA spokesman. Leaf litter weighing 1,750 tonnes was collected in February, which is equivalent to 350,000 filled rubbish bags.

Kids nowadays. Eat happy meal also must fight. Check out the knife Three men were attacked by four others near Tampines West Community Club this morning (Mar 22) at 6.20am, who then fled the scene and left behind a bloody knife and a 200 metre-long trail of blood. According to a report in Shin Min Daily, the incident occurred at a fast food restaurant near the community club at Avenue 3, Street 81. A 64-year-old retiree said he saw around 10 men in their 20s outside the restaurant at 5am. An hour later, he saw three men lying in a pool of blood when cycling past Block 828. Two of them had blood on their upper bodies and both hands, while the third man, who was bleeding from his head and arms, suffered more serious injuries. Two men -- a 24-year-old and a 22-year-old -- were sent to Changi General Hospital for emergency treatment. An employee at a supermarket nearby said he saw four men running past him quickly at around 6.30am. They were tall, thin and looked to be in their 20s. "They looked like they were being chased. I even asked my friend why they were running so quickly. Only when I saw the blood left behind at the scene later then did I know that something had happened," he said. A 14-inch-long knife with a rope tied around it was left behind at the scene. In response to a query by STOMP, Police said: "Police received a call today at about 6.24am requesting for assistance at Tampines West Community Centre. "Upon Police arrival, two men were found injured at the said location. "They were conveyed to Changi General Hospital. "Police investigations are ongoing."

Source: AsiaOne Photos: The New Paper, Lianhe Wanbao, Patrick Loh A lorry driver crashed into railings, a traffic light, three vehicles and a road sign at Choa Chu Kang Way, before assaulting an SMRT bus driver who had honked at his stalled vehicle which was blocking traffic on Monday (Oct 22). The mayhem began Monday morning, after the 53-year-old male driver apparently lost control of his lorry and veered left onto the pedestrian pavement at Choa Chu Kang West flyover and knocked down part of the railings, witnesses said. Then, as it moved along the pavement, it knocked down a traffic light at the cross junction before hitting two cars and a taxi travelling towards Kranji Expressway. Two of the vehicles were badly dented, but instead of stopping, the driver made several attempts to reverse his lorry back onto the road. After he drove off, the lorry took down a huge road sign along Choa Chu Kang Way. He kept going until the junction of Choa Chu Kang Way and Choa Chu Kang Avenue 3, where the lorry stalled. His trail of destruction covered about 500m of Choa Chu Kang Way. By then, the SMRT bus driver had found his way blocked by the lorry. The 47-year-old at the wheel was driving an off-duty bus, said an SMRT spokesman. The lorry driver, believed to have been agitated by the honking, went up to the bus and allegedly attacked the bus driver, Lianhe Wanbao reported. When SMRT's Bus Operations Control Centre (BOCC) was informed of the assault, the police, an ambulance, and SMRT- 's Field Team were summoned to the scene, the spokesman added. The police were alerted about the five-vehicle incident at about 7.50am. The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said it sent two ambulances to the scene. Both drivers were taken to the National University Hospital. The bus driver had suffered head and facial injuries, while the lorry driver complained of lower back pain. Engineer Patrick Loh, 37, one of the drivers involved in the accident, said his red Toyota Altis was the second of the three vehicles hit by the lorry. His girlfriend, who was in the front with him, was shooting a video of the collision between the lorry and a black car on the lane beside them when the lorry hit their car. Fortunately, they escaped unhurt. Said Mr Loh: "When it happened, the thought that came to my mind was 'I'm lucky'." But the front of his car was badly dented and had to be towed away. Retiree Cheng Peng Onn, 59, saw the aftermath of the accident. He was taking a walk with his wife along Choa Chu Kang Way when he came across the carnage. "The lorry driver looked a little 'blur', like he was unable to focus," Mr Cheng said. The retiree said the driver spent a long time on the bus with the police. "It took a lot of coaxing by the police officers before the lorry driver finally agreed to come down from the bus and get into an ambulance," he said. This is not the first time an accident has happened in the vicinity. Teacher Ken Kor, 38, who heard about yesterday's incident from his wife, said he witnessed another accident there three days ago. "Although there are traffic lights along Choa Chu Kang Way, drivers still speed. This happens when traffic is light," said Mr Kor, who lives in a nearby block. A police spokesman said the lorry driver was later arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of drugs. SMRT is assisting the police with the investigations.

Thief leaves trail to own home Wed, Mar 04, 2009 The Star/Asia News Network MUAR, MALAYSIA - A thief left a trail of black oil that leaked from two generators that he stole from a farm to his house about a kilometre away near Bukit Bakri. Farm owner Chia Kok Guan, who found his generators missing on Sunday morning, asked his workers about the machines. His Indonesian workers told him that they heard a vehicle entering the farm at about 2am on Sunday but did not know what had been stolen. The workers were shocked when told that two generators were missing from a hut in the farm and after checking the surrounding area they saw a trail of black oil on the dirt road. Chia followed the trail which led to a house about 1km away and lodged a police report. When policemen arrived at the house at about 6pm, the thief had fled. "But we managed to find the generators near the house," said Chia yesterday. Meanwhile, police have taken the two generators to the police station as evidence and launched an operation to track down the thief. The Star/Asia News Network

A Choa Chu Kang resident had parked her car in multi-storey carpark at Block 203A. Upon her return to her vehicle the morning of August 7, 2008, she was shocked to find this handwritten note placed on her car windscreen. She told STOMP: "There seems to be a carpark bully who thinks he owns Lot 9 of Block 203A multi-storey carpark in Choa Chu Kang." "We saw the empty lot at around 9:10pm on the night before and just parked there, but it seems like the lot is privately owned by one of the residents there," she added. The resident has since filed a police report. Expressing her discontent she said,"Such carpark bullies should be educated that what they are doing is wrong."

http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/sin.../358051/1/.html 61-year-old man caught for smuggling tobacco By Lau Joon-Nie, Channel NewsAsia | Posted: 03 July 2008 1923 hrs SINGAPORE: An arriving passenger with an awkwardly bulging waistline and unnatural gait caught the attention of customs officers at the Singapore Cruise Centre on Wednesday. A body search conducted on the 61-year-old man uncovered four packets of shag tobacco strapped to his waist. The loose tobacco, which is used for rolling cigarettes, weighed about 850 grammes. According to a statement from the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA), the man claimed he had bought the tobacco for personal consumption in Batam while visiting his family there. Potential customs duty on the contraband tobacco would have amounted to S$281, and goods and services tax (GST) evaded came up to S$21. Under the law, first-time smugglers can be fined up to 20 times the amount of unpaid duty. They also face further fines based on the amount of GST evaded.
