The Three Expats.

I had very pleasant conversations with three passengers last night whilst ferrying them to their destinations. The first one was a pretty Australian lass from Melbourne who has been living in Singapore for the past ten years. I asked her if she has ever heard about a Singapore Taxi Blogger and she said "Yes I did", she was taking a flight somewhere and bought Time Out Singapore magazine at the news stand, the May issue and came across the 'Orchard Tower' article which she found quite interesting and from then on we were laughing and chatting away. She told me she is looking forward to seeing her parents who will be coming to Singapore in two weeks time.

The second was a young handsome Japanese tourist who is born and raised in Sao Paolo, Brazil. I too asked him the same question and he straightaway told me about the 'Orchard Tower' article and found it most amusing and funny and he liked it very much. We started talking about the Tower, chatted, joked and laughed about it. Asked about his hometown and he told me that the biggest Japanese community outside of Japan lives in Sao Paolo.

The third passenger was a Japanese who arrived four months ago and will be working here for the next three years. His wife is accompanying him and they too knew about what's going on at 'Orchard Tower'. He told me that there are fifteen thousand Japanese presently living in Singapore.

Driving a Taxi is like attending classes everyday and I get to learn so many things from expats and tourists from all over the world. Its simply great and I just love my job.

Sex Blogs?

Recently, a woman Blogger made headlines with her porn-like video showing her kneeling in front of a guy and trying to take off his pants to suggest her sexual intentions in a short video uploaded to Youtube. Shocking and tasteless in her bid to attract readership to her blog which garnered 40 to 50 thousand hits in a day from sex starved readers trying to satisfy their lusts. Woman Blogger, Ms. Peggy Heng readily admits her whore style intention to grab attention, knowing very well that it must cause sensational outbursts from netizens which will eventually benefit her monetarily. She has put her reputation at stake to earn an income but unknowingly, she has also invited sex predators to her doorsteps. Other women bloggers like Ms. Wendy Cheng and Ms. Melissa Faith Yeo (Boob-job Blogger) are also using sexual modes to attract and popularise themselves.
Its true, people get turned off or are simply not attracted to serious and dry topics which can be dull and boring. Being a taxi driver, I have listened to my passengers, discussed about all things personal and sexual unabashly, such as counselling and giving advice to those faced with marriage breakdowns, adulteries, cheating partners, assaults, sexual failures and lots more. I may post about true sexual encounters with my passengers, some even lurid to cause sensationalism in my future blogs, what do you think? Should I?

One of only two Singaporean taxi bloggers!

There is another Singaporean taxi driver blogger and you can see his blog here. I wonder who will be the next Singapore taxi driver blogger to make it 3. 


Tonight, I found other cabbies who blog. I had only known of the New York Hack one. Didn't know there were so many others. I've created a column for my fellow cabbies, the world is getting smaller.
