Imo,talking about Prez hopefull more eyeball.Let him heal,if you talk on Tkl versus Tar ,you will definitely get more views.Go with the flow,not a small stream !

Above comment left by a reader. Why want me to talk about the presidential hopefuls? I know it is a hot top in SG at this moment. I rather have less "eyeballs" (views) than to be sued if I say anything about SG politics. To me silence is golden when it comes to politics.

Post brain cancer surgery

 After surgery the scan showed some blood in the cavity and his blood pressure is very high. However, he is good spirits. The doctors will keep him under very close observation. Meanwhile please continue praying for his speedy recovery.

Brain cancer surgery

 My friend and ex colleague who had brain cancer is out   of an 8 hour surgery a few hours ago. He is in critically ill ward and is under close observation by the medical staff. Pray for him if you can.

Why recruit more?

 SIA is still recruiting cabin crew aggressively. We don't know how many more does it need. Going by the interviews in SG and overseas plus asking former crew to apply is a sign of desperation. It should invite those who was "forced" to quit because of the reluctance to be vaccinated against Covid-19 to return to work. These ex crew should also be compensated for salary lost. If SIA does that then I will more respect for the airlines.

A public holiday dedicated to the mountains in Japan

Strange it may be but today is a public holiday called Yama Day, a day when the Japanese pay respect to the mountains in Japan. It also has Marine Day and other public holidays dedicated to mother nature.

In fact, the schools are having a long summer holiday, lasting 1 1/2 months. Due to the heat (max 36c only on a few days)most children are confined to their homes. If they do leave their home due to boredom, most will spend their day in the air conditioned shopping malls.

Having Japanese Wagyu Beef @ Home

My colleague is sick!

One of my ex colleagues is very sick. I don't want to mention his name as he values his privacy. Hope he will recover quickly after his operation.

We are now old and most are in the 60s and 70s. A few are in their 80s. At our age the concern is our health. We have spent a big part of our life working and bringing up the children. Some of us are grandparents. There is nothing left in this world for us to purse except good health and to some our religion. Hope you younger people out there treasure your youth and good health.

Beef bowl aka Gyudon

 

Many of us crew and ex crew loves eating beef rice or gyudon as it is called in Japanese. Now that I am residing in Japan, I can have it everyday.In the above video you can see me eating gyudon which was cooked and prepared by my wife. Please watch the video on the main YouTube page and subscribe to my channel so you may watch all my past and upcoming videos. Also give me a "Thumb Ups" or "Like". Thank you.

RIP Kook aka Hock Lye

 Retired ifs Hock Lye passed away on 28 June 2023. He died suddenly without any known illness. He was a amicable crew whom many like to work with him. RIP my friend.

SIA walk-in interview for cabin crew in KL

 There is a walk-in interview in KL, Malaysia today. Some wannabes have asked me whether they should travel to KL for the interview (These are Singaporeans). Since the interview is for Malaysians my advice is not to go. There is a likelihood of being turned away. However, I knew of a few cases whereby Singaporeans who attended had been recruited. In this respect, if one is desperate to get the job then by all means go. If you are not allowed to attend or being turned away then you would have wasted your time and money. Be patient and wait for the interview in Singapore.

SIA still recruiting cabin crew

 SIA is still recruiting cabin crew from Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, Taiwan, Thailand etc. Must be desperate, I supposed due to crew shortage. It was a lesson learned not to let go too many crew when there is a downturn like Sars and covid. Well it's better not to criticize or else I may get myself into trouble. I will leave the task to the cc management and see how they will deal with any downturn or epidemics.

Breakfast service on SQ656

 

The breakfast in the EY was quite good.We had omelette, 2 large sausages,spinach etc. On the tray was a breadroll,yogurt,cut fruits and a glass of fruit juice (mine was apple juice). Overall,the breakfast was substantial.The only complaint I had was the breadroll was stone cold. The other choice was Japanese chicken teriyaki which I declined.

SIA cabin crew

 

We flew from SIN to FUK recently and the video was about the crew serving breakfast before landing. Flight was 70% full and it was a smooth flight with good inflight service. The breakfast video will be uploaded in the next few days.
