I seriously believe the news is a farce, they say its a joint bid, the bid is higher that previous World Cup, but cannot say anything more, say confidential. All these just want to make us think they going to pay more for the licensing, in the end, we are the one who paying more lor
after the ronaldo fiasco in the brazil and france match, i had given up watching the world cup. It is beginning to be like wrestling whereby everything is fixed
We should allow the Malaysian cable operator the license to operate in Singapore. This will give the Singtel and Starhub a run for their money, with their economy of scale and increase coverage their rates will beat them hands down. Singaporeans will say Malaysia Boleh !

Of course its a farce. The big idea is to pre-empt a significantly higher cable fees by scaring the bejesus out of our gullible yet lovetobetbutcan'tplaysoccer Ah Sengs.
Can you imagine what happens to our phony economy if the telco's do not get the broadcasting rights for the World Cup in June 2010???
No revenue for SG Pools.
No revenue for overpriced waterholes and restaurants.
Bad for tourism - who the fuck will spend June/July 2010 in SG? Even biz travellers will put of their trips till after.
Bad for the casino. Imagine the maiden year of the IR and no world cup telecast.
Earlier this month, The Straits Times reported that at least 202 countries have received the green light from Fifa to beam June 2010's World Cup football matches in their territories, but not Singapore.
