UFC UFC GYM
The first time I fell in love with Boracay Island, Philippines was in 2009. I was with bunch of great people and that made it special. I was younger back then and my perspective was different.
Now I am 33, soon to be 34, for all those times I have visited this beautiful Island, and how it made me feel human again every time I visit, I just wanted to give back.
On my own little ways, I reached to a few locals and shared what I could. It’s not much. I wish I could do more. I lost my job at Apple Singapore, It’s been two weeks since I am here, but I wish I could do more.
But this post is not about doing less or more. It’s about doing what we can to help and share whatever smallest ways we can.
This post is not about showing how poor Boracay is now, because that’s far from the truth. We have the natural resources that for some people can use to get by. But there are a lot who could not.
This post about reaching out to UFC GYM Singapore who asked me evidence and documents from my doctor showing that depression would not allow me to go to gym. This post is about encouraging UFC GYM Singapore to return the money I spent for membership for the gym I never used. This is about asking UFC GYM Singapore to do the right thing and be the better person.
This is about asking my landlord Thai Kum Foon of Kuok Singapore and my property agent Michael Lim of Orangetee & Tie to return my security deposit. To reconsider things as greediness can cause us more. I believe.
I am asking the people involved to think it over. Because the truth of the matter is, doing the right thing is not easy, but this time, you are not doing it for me, but for the people you can help with. Because the truth is, the amount I am asking you to return is just little to what you already have. I am asking you to do one thing in your life, that one day, your kids and their kids, can be proud of.
You may not listen to this, but asking for the last time, is worth the try, for these people.

things to do in singapore for locals 在 Explore_HongKong Facebook 的最佳貼文
Why are there so many people outside the Haw Par Mansion 虎豹別墅 on its open day? It is part of HongKonger’s collective memories.
The mansion was built by Aw Boon Haw 胡文虎, a Burmese-Chinese tycoon, who produce the very famous ointment - Tiger Balm oil 萬金油, in 1930s.
This Mansion is one of the three Tiger Balm Mansions in the world - another two in FuJian and Singapore respectively. The ones in Hong Kong and Singapore also has a theme park for public enjoyment and to promote Chinese values - do good things (the theme park was full of sculptures showing the different ways the King of Hell punishes people who did bad things). It was a nightmare to the kids 😅
The Tiger Balm garden in Hong Kong was where locals visit during weekends in the past. Have I been to the Tiger Balm garden before? Yes! When I was 3 years old. And then in 1998, the Aw family sold the entire Garden complex to Cheung Kong Holdings for redevelopment. To preserve this garden, the government made an agreement with Cheung Kong Holdings, but the theme park was still demolished in 2004.
The remaining 1/8th of the original garden has turned into a music centre - Haw Par Music. The other part was demolished and used to build luxury houses - the Legend at Jardine’s Lookout.
Can you still visit the Haw Par Mansion now?
Yes! It is open to public daily until 6pm. In order to have access to all rooms in the mansion, you need to book a guided tour at https://www.hawparmusic.org in advance. Check out @HarParMusic for more information.
@hongkong_greeters managed to go into the mansion yesterday 👏🏻👏🏻 thanks for all these photos!
Where is it? 15A Tai Hang Road, Tai Hang 香港大坑大坑道15號A

Check out the differences of Orchard Road in Singapore during COVID19 Phase 1 and Phase 2.
Music by David Meraki: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCI-ShiSbaApBfnKdgVaSWsQ
Fun Facts:
Orchard Road is a famous street in South East Asia, and increasingly across the world. Adorned with stores, malls, eateries and sites, the 2.2km strip is a paradise delight for shoppers and tourists alike. But there are a few things about Orchard Road that are little known, and adding these to your bank of knowledge could quite impress whoever you choose to stroll down the famed boulevard with. It’s not all about shopping and consumerism, there’s a lot more to this historic street in the Lion City.
1. If you perchance to stroll down Orchard Road between around 6:30 to 8:30pm, you may notice that the human species is somewhat outnumbered by another; hundreds and hundreds of birds flock to the famed shopping street in the evening, The Birds
If you perchance to stroll down Orchard Road between around 6:30 to 8:30pm, you may notice that the human species is somewhat outnumbered by another; hundreds and hundreds of birds flock to the famed shopping street in the evening, and their singing of sunset songs can actually become quite a racket. But why are there so many birds? Singapore is actually located right on course of the East Asian-Australasian Flyway – the migrating path of thousands of birds, and the island is an essential stop for the birds to refuel – and what a place to do it! Munching on leftover food, and singing from the many treetops that line the streets are four different species of birds; the Asian Glossy Starling, the Javan Myna, the house crow, and the rock pigeon.
But their presence comes with an unsightly catch – the poop. Executive Director of the Orchard Road Business Association, Steven Goh, is expending much effort and a lot of resources to keep the boulevard clean. For example, up to 3’000 litres of water every night is used to pressure clean the street and rid it of bird poop.
1. What’s in a Name?
The name Orchard Road actually originates from where you might think – it was once lined with orchards! Early in the 19th century it was home to Pepper and Gambier plantations, which years later gave way to Nutmeg and Fruit Orchards.
It’s rumored that a “Mr. Orchard” used to own some of the land at the corner of present-day Scotts Road and Orchard Road, and as lovely as that might be, there doesn’t seem to be much evidence to support it.
1. What Once Was…
As well as fruitful orchards (that sadly diminished mostly due to disease), Orchard Road was also once the location of three cemeteries; a Chinese cemetery, a Sumatran cemetery, and later on, a Jewish Cemetery.
By the 1860’s there were many private houses on Orchard Road, and in the early 1890’s, King Chulalongkorn, King of Siam, acquired “Hurricane House”. Later two pieces of property were added on, and it is now the site of the Royal Thai Embassy, at 370 Orchard Road.
The early 20th Century saw Orchard Road as home to a number of different things including fresh produce markets, car parks, the Orchard Road Railway and the Glutton’s market – where locals would wait for the clock to hit 5pm before setting up a number of stalls selling local cuisines and goodies.
And then in 1958 the Orchard Road that we know now began, with the opening of CK Tang’s Department store – the first and longest-running of its kind on the strip.
1. A Secret Street
Just a hop behind the glamourous Orchard Road, is another awe-inspiring street, but not for any of the same reasons.
Emerald Hill is a little street of terraced houses that feels as though it’s been frozen in time – a stunning display of Chinese Baroque architecture, this little street definitely deserves a little of your time away from Orchard Road.
What was once a nutmeg plantation (which sadly failed due to disease) has since become the home of many-a-wealthy Singaporean, and has even been the mystical setting for many short stories written by pioneer of Singaporean Literature Goh Sin Tub.

things to do in singapore for locals 在 Ghib Ojisan Youtube 的最佳解答
Today, me and my Taiwanese friend James decided to cycle from East Coast Park to Marina Bay Sands. Not many tourists do this, but it's one of the popular activities done by locals. You get this amazing sea view at all times, pass by nice looking cafes/restaurants, and stop by East Coast Lagoon Food Village and get to enjoy delicious local food. (You can watch the food review here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjcizpG6YvI)
It took us 87 minutes and the cost for the share bike was 2.86 Singapore dollars. It's really amazing, hope you enjoy it too. Huat AH!!
