This winter, I'm going to build up a bike for touring. My life long fantasy has been to go long distance bike touring. So, everything that requires reliance on power that cannot be obtained via a solar panel or dynamo is being struck off my build.

Late to the thread, but PNG orang asli appear to be Negrito rather than Polynesian. Probably from an earlier wave of human migration rather than the wave that originated from Taiwan. Also, on Sulawesi, there are monuments like those on Easter Island. Not to mention the homo floresiensis...

Dream assignment. Whenever I was sent out of camp to do something, it was like a mini-ROD.

Use the ang chia force. They have nothing to do anyway.

This one looks like a horse.

Step #1 to combat influence is close down the Confucian Institutes.

NS men are such pussies now. In my time, I saw cooks using cabbages for footballs, stirring in drink syrup with bare arms, etc. Never died from this.

The “special ingredients” add to the flavour anyway!

I don’t disagree with some of the things he tried to do even if it was for the wrong reasons. Hey, even a blind squirrel can find nuts now and then… but he was and is a racist, scamming conman.

Still better than having Trump in office.

Could be a submerged shipping container too. There were thousands lost at sea in 2020, and more than 1000 lost as of April in 2021.

Submarines don’t use active sonar; this would give their position away. They use passive sonar, which is just listening for the noises around it. You try walking through a room blindfolded, only by listening for the changes in ambient sound around you to detect objects. It is possible, but hard.

Fake lah. I’ve never seen a male ballet dancer who didn’t trigger my gaydar system. :-)

That’s a big house on a tiny piece of land. I suppose it is about perspective; my first house (not in Singapore) had 29,000+ sq ft of land. You need this space to keep distance from neighbours.

Tiong land is all fucked up now. There are so many things going on that it is hard to keep things straight. Their economy is going down the jamban due to all the 1B1R spending, the collapse of their real estate market, and their weird bastardised communist/capitalist hybrid economy. Local and...

They have been buying from Brazil, US, India, etc. I heard (but did not confirm) that some of this coal was just Australian coal that was simply bought and then resold by traders in these countries. “ok” is a relative term… in Dongguan, many vendors are only allowed to operate 3 days a week...

Not to mention all the Tiong developments in JB. Good luck to all the Sinkies who bought properties in Iskandar and elsewhere. They will be worthless soon, even without help from the mats.

The coal on the coast was in bonded warehouses. This is where incoming goods wait to be cleared for onward travel into China. What happened is that when Winnie decided to tekan Australia, China customs just stopped clearing these shipments. When the bonded warehouses were filled up, coal...

Coking coal is much more expensive than thermal coal. Historically, China has bought both types from Australia.

Only one day’s supply from what I read.
