Wah, I still cannot believe this happened. Last night my friend story kena me real-time, and honestly… I was laughing and shaking my head at the same time. So here’s the situation: a Singaporean man, married already, got approval from his wife to take a second wife. Wait, hold up. I know you thinking “wah lao, how?” But here’s the catch—his wife laid down conditions straight-up, no ceremony, and the second wife must sleep in the bomb shelter. Yes, bomb shelter. Not bedroom, not guest room… the bomb shelter.
You want second wife?
Imagine the scene. Wife serious serious, asking him, “You want second wife? Can, but she cannot disturb my peace. And don’t make ceremony, don’t make drama.” I cannot stop laughing because this is so Singaporean sia. Only in SG can people think about legal side, small space, and still make sure their own comfort is secured. Like, bomb shelter? Emergency exit becomes second wife bedroom… next level efficiency.
Friend also said the man almost choked on his kopi. Can you imagine? He kena lecture by his own wife, but at the same time… he got her approval… And apparently the wife even set rules for her own privacy, like, she wants zero interaction at night. “You both keep distance, she stay there, I stay here, harmony maintained,” she said. I low-key respect her honesty, honestly. Some people will just scream and storm out, but she just… negotiated like HR manager.
Of course, my friend was trying to imagine how the second wife feel, sleeping in a bomb shelter like a staycation gone wrong. Maybe got small fan, mosquito net, maybe she bring own pillow… but the mental image alone got me crying with laughter. Then everyone start joking, “Next thing, must wear helmet,” “What about aircon, need split system inside bomb shelter?” Singaporean brain cannot stop overthinking.
At the end of the day, everyone say one thing—this kind of drama only happen in Singapore. Small space, strict rules, and yet… somehow, still try to make things work. Honestly, I cannot decide if I should laugh or cry for humanity. But honestly, only in Singapore can a wife approve second wife… on condition she stays in the bomb shelter.
If you ask me, I think the man now living in fear, every night checking the bomb shelter like checking income tax letter. Wah, life in SG really got story for everything sia.
