GIRL WITH PROBLEMS ADAPTING CAN’T SLEEP IN SAME ROOM AS BF

Is it ok for couples to sleep separately for long term even after marriage?

My bf and I have sleeping patterns that clash. I am a light sleeper that gets awakened easily by small environmental changes. I am the type who needs that 7-8 hr of sleep a night.

If not, I’ll get drowsy and moody the next day. My bf snores a lot which will affect me. in his room, he used to sleep alone on a queen size bed and he’s also a bit reluctant to share the space with another person.

We are considering to sleep to separate rooms if we do settle down. As a bonus, we can decorate our rooms to our liking instead of having to compromise. I’ve seen it being practised in western countries but will it be weird to do it here?

Here are what netizens think:

  • Why do you seek the opinions of strangers on an arrangement in your private relationship? Who cares about East or West? Do what suits the two of you. Sleep separately if it helps.
  • Not weird. I.second that actually. Sleep is most important. The worse thing is you enter yr room wanting to sleep and yet the roommate watching loud movie and make u lose your sleep and affect yr sleep quality.
  • Actually it is pretty normal and as long as both of you have your needs covered, you will be fine. The good thing is as a couple, your recognises issues and willing to work as a team to resolve issues is a good start before settling down.
  • As long as it will not affect your relationship, I don’t think it will pose a problem
  • Nope not weird. Do what u think is best for the both of u to get better sleep. Just make sure that u guys don’t miss out on or skip intimacy when u guys sleep seperately.

PET SHOP BOSS TOLD S’PORE ACTRESS TO LET HER PET TURTLE DIE SINCE IT ONLY COST HER $4

Speaking during a recent interview with Chinese media outlet 8world News, 29-year-old actress Jernelle Oh gave us a glimpse into her fascinating relationship with her two-year-old pet turtle, Ding Kun.

A Surprise Purchase

Jernelle Oh’s journey with Ding Kun began when she decided to adopt a pet turtle. Remarkably, she acquired the little reptile for just $4. Interestingly, Ding Kun’s gender remained a mystery to Jernelle.

However, their story took an unexpected turn when Ding Kun began displaying unusual behavior. Jernelle noticed that her small turtle was refusing to eat, hesitating to venture into the water, and acting strangely.

Concerned for her pet’s well-being, Jernelle embarked on a mission to uncover the root of Ding Kun’s issues.

A Cold-Blooded Suggestion

Desperate for answers, Jernelle sought advice from a local pet store owner, hoping to find a remedy to ease Ding Kun’s distress.

What she encountered was nothing short of shocking. The pet store owner, with a shocking lack of empathy, callously suggested that, given the pet’s cheap cost price of $4, she should simply let it die and buy a replacement.

Despite this heartless advice, Jernelle’s love for Ding Kun prevailed. She was determined to provide her pet with the care it deserved.

When Jernelle eventually located a vet capable of treating Ding Kun’s ailment, she was met with another obstacle – the cost.

Treating a pet turtle, it turned out, could be a substantial financial burden, ranging from S$3,000 to S$4,000. This staggering amount took her by surprise but did not deter her from her mission to nurse Ding Kun back to health.

A Battle Won with Love and Care

Jernelle eventually opted for a more unconventional approach. She turned to folk remedies, taking every measure to ensure Ding Kun’s comfort and well-being.

Jernelle increased the temperature of Ding Kun’s water to prevent it from catching a cold, provided proper lighting, diligently replaced its water, and supplemented its diet with essential vitamins.

Through this unwavering dedication, Jernelle was able to nurse Ding Kun back to good health.

ANG MOH YOUTUBER SHOCKED BY PEOPLE IN S’PORE OPENLY DIGGING NOSES IN PUBLIC

Noah Boudrie, better known as Wanderlust Wellman, recently shared his fascinating first-time experiences in Singapore through a nine-minute video on his YouTube channel.

As a passionate traveler, he explored various aspects of the vibrant city-state. While many things left him in awe, one observation particularly stood out – people digging their noses in public.

7 Things in Singapore That Surprised Him

Wanderlust Wellman, an American YouTuber, embarked on his maiden journey to Singapore with his wife, Vanessa. In his video, he highlighted seven aspects of Singapore that surprised him, and nose-picking in public was the last on his list.

Wanderlust Wellman’s video showcased his initial reactions to the Lion City, Singapore.

The Singaporean Climate

The tropical climate of Singapore was among the first things that struck Wellman. He discussed the heat and humidity that envelops the island nation, making it a unique experience for him as an American accustomed to different weather conditions.

Lush Greenery and Scenic Beauty

Wellman marveled at Singapore’s lush greenery and scenic beauty. The city boasts an array of parks and gardens, contributing to its nickname as the “Garden City.”

Efficient Public Transportation

One of the key highlights for the YouTuber was Singapore’s public transportation system, particularly the Mass Rapid Transit (MRT). He praised its efficiency and convenience, which were in stark contrast to what he was accustomed to in the United States.

Diverse Neighborhoods

Singapore’s cultural diversity was a revelation for Wellman. He explored vibrant neighborhoods like Chinatown, Little India, and Kampung Glam, each offering a unique cultural experience.

The Affordability Factor

The affordability of dining in Singapore, largely due to hawker centers, caught Wellman’s attention. He found it to be a welcome surprise compared to the often expensive dining options in the West.

Gardens by the Bay

Wellman was captivated by the Gardens by the Bay, a futuristic horticultural wonder that showcases the city’s commitment to sustainable living and ecological awareness.

Digging Nose in Public

As he reached the end of his list of surprises, Wellman shared an observation that wasn’t as positive as the previous ones. He and his wife, Vanessa, noticed that some Singaporeans were picking their noses in public, and it wasn’t met with the same level of social taboo as it might be in the West.

Wanderlust Wellman acknowledged that cultural norms vary from one country to another. While nose-picking in public might raise eyebrows in some places, it’s not necessarily a big deal in others.

To put things into perspective, Wellman compared the Singaporean practice of public nose-picking to similar norms in the West, where such behaviour is typically avoided in public spaces.

IKEA OFFERING DISCOUNTS FOR 140+ ITEMS, “WE PROMISE TO BE THE MOST AFFORDABLE IN S’PORE”

IKEA OFFERING DISCOUNTS FOR 140+ ITEMS, “WE PROMISE TO BE THE MOST AFFORDABLE IN S’PORE”

In September, IKEA Singapore made headlines by announcing a significant reduction in the prices of 144 of its products, with plans to cut prices for more than 60 additional items by April next year, as reported by Channel NewsAsia.

This strategic move comes on the heels of a global initiative by IKEA to lower prices across various markets.

IKEA’s Price Reduction Strategy

The decision to lower prices signifies a shift in IKEA’s pricing strategy. The chief executive of Inter-IKEA Group, Jon Abrahamsson Ring, emphasized that 2023 marked a turning point in their pricing approach.

This group, responsible for overseeing 12 IKEA franchisees worldwide, including IKEA Singapore, has taken proactive steps to make their products more affordable.

This move is poised to bring significant relief to consumers. As the cost of living continues to rise, price reductions on essential home furnishing products are more important than ever.

Gerard Jansen, the retail director of IKEA Singapore, revealed that some products, saw price reductions of up to 20%. For example, the price for their MALM chest drawers dropped to S$199 (US$145) from their usual price of S$249.

The Role of Inter-IKEA Group

Inter-IKEA Group, the global franchisor, plays a pivotal role in determining the range and supply of products for IKEA franchisees.

This centralized approach enables IKEA to implement price adjustments across multiple locations effectively. This global coordination ensures that price cuts are not limited to IKEA Singapore but extend to other regions as well.

The price increase implemented at the beginning of 2023 was primarily driven by rising costs in IKEA’s supply chain. However, since May, there has been a positive shift, with raw material prices and transportation costs moving in a favorable direction. These changes in the supply chain have enabled IKEA to reconsider and reduce its prices.

Customer Satisfaction and Financial Concerns

These price reductions resonate with the concerns of consumers about their household finances. A 2022 Life at Home report by IKEA revealed that 74% of Singaporean respondents expressed worries about their financial situation.

IKEA acknowledges these concerns and is dedicated to providing affordable options for essential and popular home items to help consumers manage their budgets more effectively.

While IKEA Singapore has taken steps to provide more affordable products, they did face a 2.0% decrease in revenue compared to the previous year. As of August 31, they closed their financial year with a turnover of S$384.2 million.

FATHER LEAVES NEWBORN BABIES AND WIFE FOR A 18-YEAR-OLD GIRL

FATHER LEAVES NEWBORN BABIES AND WIFE FOR A 18-YEAR-OLD GIRL

I gave birth to twin boys 4 months ago and love them with all my heart. I thought my 42-year-old husband felt the same. He had been distant with me since even before my boys were born, but he seemed to love them.

Over the weekend he revealed that he has an 18 year old girlfriend and has now left to go live with her, saying he no longer wants to see our children again.

I will be ok as a single mother in the sense that I was the one paying all our bills and was able to juggle working freelancer online and taking care of the kids since my STBX didn’t ever change a diaper but just played with them. But wow. My kids are going to grow up without a father. Maybe they’re too young for it to hurt as much. I don’t know.

Where do I go from here? Will my kids be ok? Never imagined this. Ever.

Here are what netizens think:

  • My god your husband is a child. Walking out of his two babies for someone who is basically a child themselves. Your sons don’t need THAT for a dad but I hope someone is looking out for you and that other girl too.
  • As a 50+ male, I just don’t get it. 18 is a child in my mind. No offense to 20 to 30 year old’s but those fall into that category in my mind too (maturity wise). if I were single I would not date anyone less than 40 because I just don’t think I’d be comfortable with anyone less than that age. Totally gross.
  • You don’t get it because you’re a good person who wants to date a partner/equal instead of someone they can own & control. At least that’s my interpretation of people who do what he’s doing.
  • 18 is still a child. I didn’t feel like a proper adult until like last year when I was 27. I can’t imagine what an 18 year old and a 42 year old has in common. This guy is a groomer and should be investigated.

SUPERSTITION M’SIAN WOMAN INVITES MAN TO DO “RITUAL AT NEW HOME” GETS MOLESTED

Malaysia, Muar – The new family hired a ji boy to perform rituals to calm the nerves, but the businesswoman was assaulted on the breasts and sexually assaulted by the ji boy , causing the victim to suffer mental torture and find it difficult to sleep peacefully.

The female victim is a 37-year-old businesswoman surnamed Wu, from Muar, who has 2 children. Accompanied by Wei Zongxian, chairman of the anti-smoking branch of the DAP, she reported the case to the Muar police this morning and held a press conference to reveal the incident.

Ms. Wu said that on September 20 this year, she hired a 58-year-old Jitong who came to Badong to perform rituals for the new family and to consecrate the newly purchased Guanyin Buddha statue.

She said that after the ceremony, she went to the kitchen to get water to quench the thirst of the child. However, when she was sitting on the sofa in the living room to rest, she suddenly felt weak, as if possessed by a demon, and lost consciousness. She did not wake up until her boyfriend called her.

She said that in her daze, she felt as if someone was grabbing her hands and skirt, reaching up and down her chest, caressing her breasts, and then pulling down her underwear and violating her private parts.

Because the female victim was in a dazed state at the time, she was unable to resist and allowed the child to do whatever she wanted.

Afterwards, the female victim went to check the surveillance footage at home, and then she revealed Ji Tong’s abominable behavior and told her boyfriend what happened.

Ms. Wu said that on September 26 and 27, her boyfriend twice asked the child to come and explain the incident. The child also knelt down to beg for mercy and apologized, and admitted that he had molested someone in the name of massage. 100 women, 5 of whom were sexually assaulted.

She said that this incident caused her great psychological trauma, and she could not calm down for a long time. She was very depressed and even self-harmed and scratched her body many times.

The female victim said that she now chose to reveal the incident in order to prevent more people from being sexually assaulted and molested, and at the same time to make the perpetrators face legal sanctions.

FOREIGN COUPLE FOUND DEAD IN THAILAND, SUSPECTED IT IS RELATED TO A CULT

According to Thai media reports, recently, the police station in Panna District, Annan Chanang Province, Thailand received a report that a foreign couple was found dead in a house in the local Mai Klon area. Subsequently, the police immediately coordinated forensics and rescue personnel to rush to the scene for investigation.

The incident occurred in a two-story house close to the road. The police used the landlord’s spare key to unlock the door. After entering the house, they found a woman lying on the bed with large blood stains. She was about 40 years old and a Moldovan citizen (a European country). She was lying beside the bed. A male deceased, about 47 years old and a Swiss national, was found. No signs of a fight or theft were found at the scene.

Careful inspection revealed that there were 1 wound on the left and right sides of the woman’s neck and on both arms, and the wounds on the male deceased were in the same condition. There was a blood-stained fruit knife on the ground near the woman’s right foot. In addition, the police also found another fruit knife stained with blood in the sink, and a dead dog in front of the bathroom. The police brought the above items back for investigation and took the two deceased people to the hospital for autopsy.

According to neighbors, the man among the two people mentioned above was seen on October 13. He returned home after going shopping and has not been seen since. Usually the couple would sit in front of the house and smoke every evening, but that night it was very quiet, and there were no lights in the house. At around 20 o’clock in the evening, they heard the sound of a suspected person falling in their bedroom, because the two bedrooms were close to each other. Very close. It wasn’t until his Thai friends came to look for them the next day that they discovered that the two people were dead.

According to their Thai friend, the two deceased were married and knew her Swiss husband. The two were once rich, but are now bankrupt. Because they have expertise in cannabis oil production, they were invited by their husbands to come to Thailand to help. It has been five months now. Although their finances has not been reveal, all aspects of life are taken care of and chats are held every day. Until the night of the incident, she received a message of thanks from the other party, but she did not receive a reply after asking.

At present, the police have initially judged it to be suicide, but have not ruled out other possibilities and need to wait for specific autopsy results. In addition, the police also found two mysterious images that resembled some kind of demon, witch or a cult organization in the bedroom of the deceased. In any case, the case is still under further investigation.

SMRT TRAINS CHARGED FOR DEATH OF STAFF WORKING @ BISHAN DEPOT, KILLED BY ROD THAT FLEW OUT

SMRT TRAINS CHARGED FOR DEATH OF STAFF WORKING @ BISHAN DEPOT, KILLED BY ROD THAT FLEW OUT

In a shocking turn of events, SMRT Trains, one of Singapore’s prominent rail operators, finds itself facing legal repercussions for a devastating workplace incident.

They were charged on 17 October with one count of failing to take measures to ensure the safety of their workers at a depot, according to The Straits Times.

The incident, which took place at the Bishan Depot in March 2020, resulted in the tragic death of a technical officer, 30-year-old Muhammad Afiq Senawi, who suffered severe injuries while on duty.

A Tragic Day at Bishan Depot

On March 23, 2020, Muhammad Afiq Senawi was operating a hydraulic press machine, a powerful industrial tool, at the Bishan Depot.

Tragically, during the operation, a spacer rod was forcefully ejected from the machine, breaking through safety fencing and striking him in the face.

The consequences of this incident were fatal, and Mr. Senawi was rushed to Tan Tock Seng Hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries and died that morning.

Safety Measures in Question

During a coroner’s inquiry in 2021, alarming details emerged regarding safety measures at the depot. The court heard that SMRT Trains allegedly failed to implement several critical safety measures:

  1. Pressure Gauge Installation: It was alleged that SMRT Trains did not install a pressure gauge for the hydraulic press machine after it was dismantled for repair.
  2. Hazardous Zone Demarcation: The rail operator was accused of failing to demarcate a hazardous zone, which would keep operators at a safe distance from the machine during its operation.
  3. Pressure Valve Limitations: The company purportedly did not limit the maximum operating pressure of the machine using pressure valves.
  4. Inadequate Guarding: SMRT Trains allegedly did not ensure adequate guarding for the machine to withstand the force exerted by a workpiece shooting out during operation.
  5. Interlocking Workpieces: It was also claimed that the firm did not ensure that workpieces used with the hydraulic press machine were engaged and interlocked to prevent displacement during operation.

Previous conviction

This is not the first time SMRT Trains has faced legal consequences for safety lapses. On February 28, 2017, the rail operator was convicted following an incident that resulted in the death of two individuals.

In this case, two trainee employees, part of a 15-member team checking on a fault related to switching equipment on the MRT tracks, were struck by a train near Pasir Ris MRT station.

The company was fined $400,000 for this tragic incident.

Legal Ramifications

The current charges against SMRT Trains carry significant weight. If found guilty, the rail operator can face fines of up to $1 million. The case has been adjourned to November 30.

This tragic incident at the Bishan Depot serves as a somber reminder of the paramount importance of ensuring safety in the workplace. Employers must uphold the highest standards of safety measures to protect their employees from harm.

DELIVERY MAN SPOTTED THROWING PARCELS AT VOID DECK

A netizen managed to film a group of man sorting out a bunch of goods for delivery.

However, they were seen throwing the items around and do not care if the items break.

Here is what the netizen said:

Not sure which company. But staff appointed to deliver our items simply throw around our parcel. No wonder items received damaged/ broken. I haven been noticing this almost on a daily basis. Happens 8-10am.

@ahbengloh89

This is why your items break.

Here are what netizens think:

  • they are sorting the parcels out accordingly by blocks. (not saying tht im ok of them throwing it around) but sometimes too overwhelm and thus such things happen.
  • Not nice to do throwing around. However need to consider that the sorting is unpaid time for the courier to do delivery. Although gig delivery, but really pay peanuts for the time spent packing and delivery time. Perhaps courier company can made effort to have an auto labelling for parcels that is visually easy for courier to see, plan his route and sorting. However consumers need to pay more. Can’t be paying peanuts but expect quality
  • If that is the case, we should not be asking refund for damage items. As we know how is their handling process
  • Quite normal for them to sort out before deliver . It will take hours to sort then if slowly place them on the ground
  • Whether or not contractor, this is general common sense as not to throw parcel
  • bro every where in the world same .u want fast they deliver fast ,I’m very sure when it started fragile they won’t throw. Been done that unless it paste or indicatr fragile we will handle with care other than that. U need b fast I have thousands parcel daily eh .u expect them work sort out nicely one by one until 12aM also won’t finish
