HOPELESS S’PORE FOOTBALL TEAM LOSE UNTIL SIBEI JIALAT, KENA HAMMERED 7-0 BY M’SIA

0

Things are getting from bad to worst for the Singapore national football team, with the under-22 men’s team getting absolutely hammered by Malaysia and losing 7-0 in their final group game of the SEA Games 2023.

Perhaps they were inspired by English Premier League team Manchester United’s 7-0 loss to Liverpool and wanted to recreate their own version of history.

According to Channel NewsAsia, this was Singapore’s heaviest loss at the SEA games since the competition was divided into age groups more than 2 decades ago.

The Football Association of Singapore announced the embarrassing final score at the culmination of the game in Phnom Penh, drawing heavy ridicule and criticism from fans and netizens.

The latest defeat comes after Singapore’s lacklustre draw with minnows Laos on 6 May, with the team amassing 1 draw and 3 losses from 4 matches and failing to progress from the group stages with zero wins and a goal difference of -11.

The first half of the match saw Singapore going into the half time mark trailing Malaysia by 2 goals, with Malaysian winger T Saravanan and striker Haqimi Azim scoring the first two goals in the 14th and 45th-minute respectively.

Things then spiralled completely out of control in the second half, with Saravanan scoring again in the 47th minute to make it 3-0.

He then scored again in the 53rd and 60th minute, before captain Mukhairi Ajmal scored the 6th goal followed by Aiman Afif Mohd Afizul striking the nail in the Singaporean coffin, slotting home the 7th goal in the 90th minute to take the Malaysians into seventh heaven.

Netizens’ comments

  1. I wonder what the admin is thinking as he/she is typing the hashtag. This is an embarrassment.
  2. The ones who should step down all the board members, those who set the direction that led us to this mess….
  3. Embarrassment to the country and to the flag. Shame on the FAS.
  4. So does that mean we gonna get 7 free kosong pratas?

TEACHER EARNED 10 YRS WORTH OF HER SALARY IN JUST 1 LIVESTREAM, NOW BECOME INFLUENCER

0

Livestreaming has emerged as one of the more popular ways of making good money, as exhibited by Singapore’s getai veteran who transitioned to live streaming to make sales.

A kindergarten teacher in China, Ms Huang, recently earned 10 years’ worth of her salary in just 1 live stream and decided to change her career after that.

According to The Oriental Daily, Huang was a kindergarten teacher teaching children in the city of Wuhan in the Hubei province.

She had initially started by posting videos of herself singing nursery rhymes to the children on the Chinese social media platform Douyin.

Her videos soon gained traction and virality, with one of her videos even exceeding more than 10 million views – she had garnered herself a following online through her expressive gestures in her videos, urging her students to sing along with her.

Netizens then urged Huang to try her hand at live streaming, which she eventually agreed to.

Much to her surprise, in her first live stream, she managed to rake in a whopping 400,000 yuan (or SGD$76,454) to 500,000 yuan (or SGD$95,579).

That amount was said to be about 10 years worth of her previous salary as a kindergarten teacher, with estimated figures being around 3,000 yuan (or SGD$$573) per month, according to Oriental Daily.

On top of that, Huang also received a few virtual gifts from her viewers, (which can be exchanged for money) during the live stream, and she started crying as she thanked her fans profusely.

Huang then resigned from her position as a kindergarten teacher and began her career as a full time influencer instead, reportedly signing a contract with an influencer management company.

However, some naysayers have been less than supportive of her career move, saying that once the novelty of live streaming dies down, her earnings would diminish instead.

GIRL ASK IF IT’S WRONG TO SEEK OTHER MEN, SINCE HER BF HAS A VERY LOW DRIVE

0

I’m a 24-year-old and I’ve been in a relationship with my boyfriend for almost two years. We love each other and have a great connection, but there’s one major issue—he has a very low S drive.

When I want to get intimate, he always rejects me. It’s really frustrating and I’m starting to feel like I need more than he’s able to give me.

Seeking elsewhere

I’ve been wondering if it’s wrong to seek out other men, even though I’m in a committed relationship. I don’t want to betray my boyfriend or damage our relationship, but I’m curious and I’m starting to feel desperate. I’m sure I’m not the only woman who’s ever felt this way, so I’m writing this article to get some advice.

First and foremost, I think it’s important to understand why my boyfriend has a low drive. It could be caused by any number of things, including stress, depression, anxiety, medical issues, and even relationship issues. If his low drive is caused by something that’s treatable, then it’s important to address the issue and try to find a solution.

That could be as simple as talking to him about it and getting to the root of the problem.

If his low drive is due to something that can’t be treated, then it’s important to accept that and find ways to work around it.

If none of those options works, then I think it’s okay to explore other options. That doesn’t necessarily mean cheating on my boyfriend—it could simply mean talking to other men and seeing if they would be interested in a casual relationship. I

f they are, then I think it’s important to be honest with them and make sure they understand that I’m still in a committed relationship. It’s also important to make sure that I’m being safe and taking the necessary precautions to protect my health and well-being.

At the end of the day, the decision is up to me. I’m the only one who knows what’s best for me and my relationship, so I need to weigh the pros and cons and make the decision that’s right for me.

It’s a difficult situation, but I know that I can find a solution that works for me. Anyone got any advice?

GF SLAPS BF IN ORCHARD BECAUSE HE REFUSED TO BUY HER A BRACELET

0

My girlfriend and I had been together for almost two years. We had a very strong bond and enjoyed spending time together. Recently, we had gone out to Orchard to enjoy some retail therapy.

At first, it was a great day. We were laughing and joking, looking at different items and window shopping. But then, we came across a shop that sold branded bracelets.

My girlfriend wanted to buy one immediately and asked me to get it for her. But I refused. I explained to her that these kinds of bracelets have no real value and are just for show. I told her that if she wanted to buy something, she should get a gold chain, which would have a real resale value.

My girlfriend was not happy with my decision and started to argue with me. She kept insisting that I buy the bracelet for her and I kept refusing. I explained to her that if she bought the bracelet, she would be wasting money and that it would not be a wise investment. But she wouldn’t listen to me.

Slap

The argument was getting heated and I could see that my girlfriend was getting very frustrated. She started yelling at me and then she slapped me across the face. I was in shock. I couldn’t believe that she had done this.

I was so angry and hurt by her actions that I just walked away. I didn’t want to stay there and argue with her any further. I just wanted to get away from the situation.

The incident left me feeling confused and betrayed. I couldn’t understand why my girlfriend had acted the way she did. We had been together for almost two years and I thought we had a strong relationship. But it seemed like she had suddenly changed and was willing to hurt me just to get a bracelet.

I thought about the incident for days afterwards and it made me realise that my girlfriend was not in a good financial situation. I felt bad for her and wished that I could do something to help her. I decided that if she wanted to buy a bracelet, I would buy her one. But I would make sure that this time it was a gold chain, so that she could at least have a resale value.

I left her there and I went home. She apologize to me and blame it on her hormones.

I do not know if I should forgive her anot? getting slap in public is something I cannot forgive her, but i still have feelings for her.

She said I could slap her back in public if that is what it takes for me to forgive her, I knew she was trying to manipulate me as I will never hit a girl.

What should I do?

BOSS TELL EMPLOYEE TO OT 2 HOURS OR GET FIRED, NO OVERTIME PAY FOR OFFICE WORKERS

0

It was my second week on the job when my boss told me to stay back after hours or I’d get fired. It took me by surprise because I thought I was doing a great job. L

ittle did I know that in Singapore, white collar workers are not protected in the same way blue-collar workers are.

I had recently moved to Singapore for a job in finance, and I was excited to be a part of a well-known company with a great reputation. I was confident that I could do a good job, and I was eager to prove myself.

The first few days on the job were going great. My boss seemed pleased with my work, and I was making new friends in the office. Everything seemed perfect.

But then one day, my boss called me into his office and told me that I had to stay late and work or I’d be fired. I was shocked. I had never been asked to do something like this before.

I asked him why and he said that it was necessary for the company to meet its deadlines. He said that he had asked other employees to stay late too, and that if I didn’t comply then I’d be fired.

I was taken aback by this. I had always been taught to respect authority and I didn’t want to risk getting fired. I asked him if there were any other options, but he said that there were none.

I reluctantly stayed late and worked, but I was feeling frustrated, angry, and helpless all at the same time. I felt taken advantage of and powerless in the face of my boss’s demands.

After that, I started to do some research and found out that in Singapore, white-collar workers with a salary of a certain threshold do not get overtime pay. They are not protected in the same way as blue-collar workers are and employers can basically demand whatever they want from their employees.

This made me even more bitter. I was already working hard and doing my best, and yet I was still being taken advantage of in this way. It was unfair and unjust, and I was determined to do something about it.

I started to speak to other people in the company and found out that they had all experienced the same thing.

Although my boss still makes me stay late from time to time, I now know that I have rights and that I can speak up if I feel taken advantage of.

SIAMBU & HER SIAMKIA HUSBAND SCAMMED $51M FROM 2.5K VICTIMS, JAILED 12,640 YEARS

0

A Thai couple reportedly scammed more than 2,000 victims of millions of dollars as part of a Ponzi scheme and were sentenced by a Thai court to a whopping 12,640 years in prison, each.

Wantanee Tippaveth and her husband Methi Chinpha, admitted to their scams, which took place in 2019, and their 12-millennium prison sentence was then reduced by Thailand’s Criminal Court to 5,056 years instead.

However, according to The Bangkok Post, the couple is only expected to serve just 2 decades of jail time because of the country’s law that limits their total imprisonment to 20 years.

Background

The Thai court heard that the couple, along with 7 other people, had invited their victims through Facebook to invest in a “savings scheme” from March to October 2019, and allegedly promised them returns of 93 per cent.

Wantanee would frequently post videos of herself flaunting gold jewellery at a jewellery shop that she allegedly own, in an attempt to convince people to join her.

However, it all turned out to be fake and nothing more than just a counter that she had set up inside a room that was styled to look like an office.

The Thai police said that her social media posts which depicted her enjoying a lavish and rich lifestyle, had helped to convince and lure her victims into the scam.

About 2,533 victims joined in her Ponzi scheme and invested about 1.3 billion baht (or SGD$51.3 million).

However, Wantanee, her husband and their 7 accomplices, didn’t invest the money that the victims had entrusted to them and split the money among themselves instead.

The police said that some of the victims had lost their homes and entire life savings.

All 9 of the accused were charged with multiple counts of fraud but only Wantanee and her husband Methi were found guilty of their crimes, the other 7 accused were acquitted because of a lack of evidence.

GF ASKED TO BORROW MY CREDIT CARD AND THAT WAS THE LAST TIME I SAW HER

0

 It all started innocently enough. We had been together for a couple months and things were going great.

We were madly in love and she was always asking me for favors. I thought it was just part of being in a relationship and I was happy to help her out. Little did I know that it was all a setup.

One day, my girlfriend asked to borrow my credit card. She said she needed it to buy a few things and she’d pay me back right away. I trusted her and said yes. That was the last time I saw her for a while.

A few days later, I checked my credit card statement and saw that she had made a bunch of purchases. They were all from alcohol and party places. I was shocked and confused. I knew she liked to have a good time, but I had no idea she was going to use my card to go on a wild spending spree.

I tried to get in touch with her, but she had blocked my number and I couldn’t find her. I felt betrayed and used. All this time I had been such a soft guy, always helping her out, and now she had taken advantage of me.

I was angry and hurt, but I tried to stay level-headed. I knew that she was probably going through some tough times, so I decided to forgive her and let it go. I still had feelings for her, and I wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt.

But then I got the bill. It was for thousands of dollars and I was going to have to pay it all back. I was so mad I could barely contain myself. I wanted to confront her and make her pay for what she had done, but I knew it would be a waste of time.

So I decided to just let it go. I paid off the bill and moved on with my life. I didn’t hear from her for a long time, but eventually I got a text from her. She apologized for what had happened and promised to make it up to me. I didn’t believe her, but I decided to give her another chance.

Unfortunately, it was all for nothing. She never paid me back and I never heard from her again. I never found out why she did it, but I guess it doesn’t really matter now. All I know is that she took advantage of my good nature and it cost me a lot of money.

I may be a soft guy, but I’m not stupid. I won’t let anyone take advantage of me like that again.

2 ARRESTED IN CID OPERATION FOR SELLING FAKE GOODS WORTH MORE THAN $260K

0

The Singapore Police Force arrested a 50-year-old woman and a 37-year-old man for allegedly selling counterfeit products online with an estimated worth of more than $260,000.

According to The Singapore Police Force’s statement on Thursday (11 May), officers from the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) conducted an operation along Corporation Driver on Wednesday (10 May) that saw more than 7,300 alleged counterfeit products being seized.

Among the seized items include bags, footwear, wireless earpieces, apparel, fragrances and cosmetic products which the police said had infringed trademarks.

At the time of writing, police investigations are underway.

The police said that they take a serious view of intellectual property rights infringement and added that the selling and distributing of counterfeit goods were serious offences, and that they will not hesitate to take tough actions against those who profit at the expense of legitimate businesses and consumers.

Persons found guilty of possessing fake goods for the purpose of trading face a jail term of up to 5 years and/or a fine of up to $100,000.

Counterfeit products

Counterfeit products, also known as fake or knockoff products, are items that are made to look like and sold as authentic products, but are actually imitations produced without authorization.

These products can range from luxury goods such as designer clothing and handbags to everyday items like electronics, medications, and even food products.

Counterfeit products have become a major problem for businesses and consumers alike, with estimated losses of over $460 billion globally each year.

The production and sale of counterfeit products are illegal and can be harmful to both consumers and the economy.

Counterfeit products are often of lower quality than the genuine article, and can even be dangerous, containing harmful substances or components that can cause harm to consumers.

In addition, counterfeit products can damage the reputation of genuine brands, leading to loss of trust and revenue for businesses.

Consumers may be exposed to dangerous chemicals or ineffective ingredients, resulting in harm. The sale of counterfeit products also undermines the integrity of markets and can result in lost revenue for legitimate businesses.

MAN CALLS FRIENDS OUT TO DRINK, SO THEY WILL PAY FOR HIM

0

It’s never easy to take a stand when it comes to a close friend, especially when it comes to money.

My friend and I have been friends since poly, we even went to uni together, and I know he’s not doing too well financially.

But lately, it’s been really hard for me to deal with the fact that he only calls me out to drink. Whenever I suggest a different activity, his response is always the same: “Let’s just go out and have a couple of beers.” I don’t mind going out for a drink, but it’s like that’s all he wants to do and it’s getting really old.

I know my friend is struggling financially, but it’s getting to the point where I’m questioning if that’s the real reason he’s only asking me out to drink. I’ve tried to bring up the subject with him, but he gets defensive and changes the subject. I don’t want to push the issue, but I’m also not sure what to do.

Singapore is not the cheapest place to drink leh. He no money but still want to drink and expects me to pay for him. I know he’s not doing well, and it makes me feel better to know that I’m helping him out (once or twice ok , not everytime).

At first, I was worried about what my friend would think, but he doesn’t seem to mind. In fact, he’s even thanked me for it a few times. I’m not sure if he’s just being polite or if he really appreciates my gesture, but it doesn’t matter. I know that I’m doing the right thing and that’s what matters most.

Of course, I don’t expect to pay for my friend every time we go out. I know that he has money and I’m sure he’s trying to save as much as possible. But when I do pay, it’s usually just for a couple of drinks. I don’t want to be too generous, but I also don’t want him to feel like he’s a burden.

But the thing is, he told me he don’t have money to drink but I spotted him last night in a bar drinking alone with a few girls.

It seems like he is using me to pay for his alcohol and when he has money he does not know how to treat me back.

Simply using me. He just downgraded his “close friend” status to “stranger”. I was simply thinking too much of myself as a friend and more of a tool to him.

MAN THOUGHT HE WILL FIND TRUE LOVE BY TIPPING SIAM BU IN A DISCO

0

I always thought I would find true love by giving tips to Thai hostesses in Thai discos. After all, I had heard many stories of men who had found their dream girl in a Thai nightclub and thought it was worth a try.

I have a few friends that got married after they met a siam bu in a disco.

So, I flew to Thailand, hoping that it would bring me the love I had been searching for. I was aware that the culture in Thailand was different to my home country, but I was determined to find a Thai lady who would be my perfect match.

When I arrived in Thailand, I was excited to explore the nightlife. I was determined to find a Thai hostess in a Thai disco and give her a large tip. I was sure that this would be the key to finding the love of my life.

The first couple of discos I went to were not very inviting. The atmosphere was not very friendly and the staff were not very helpful. I realised that I needed to find somewhere more inviting and more hospitable.

After a few nights of searching, I finally found a disco that I felt comfortable in. The music was good, the atmosphere was friendly and the staff were helpful. It seemed like a good place to start my search for true love.

I started to give tips to the Thai hostesses in the disco. I was hoping that one of them would be the one I had been searching for. I gave them generous tips, bought them drinks and tried to make conversation.

Unfortunately, none of the Thai hostesses seemed interested in me. I was disappointed, but I decided to keep trying. I kept visiting the disco and kept giving tips to the hostesses.

After a few days of trying, I realised that giving tips to the Thai hostesses in the disco was not going to bring me true love. All of the hostesses were polite, but none of them seemed interested in me. I realised that I was not going to find the love of my life at the disco.
