  • I Just Wanted To Buy A Dress At Tampines Bazaar By I Left With A Dressing Down From Stallholder Instead

    I Just Wanted To Buy A Dress At Tampines Bazaar By I Left With A Dressing Down From Stallholder Instead

    Entered A Bazaar Stall At Tampines Hub And Saw A Dress I Really Liked.

    “Braper Kak?”

    “1 Helai $80.
    Kalau Beli 2 $100.
    Tapi Saya Tak Tau Kenapa Orang Cakap Mahal?!
    Orang2 Sini Semua Nak Yg Murah2 $10 Or $20.
    Kain Ni 1 Meter Harga $10.
    Saya Pakai 4 Meter Total $40.
    Upah Jahit Lagi Letak $20.
    Belum Kira Sewa Kedai Lagi.
    Packaging Lagi.
    Braper Jer Saya Untung!
    Itu Pon Orang Cakap Mahal!
    Menyesal Saya Bayar 4 Ribu Untuk Sewa Bazaar Kat Sini.
    Yadaaa….Yadaaaa…..Yadaaa…..”

    I Smiled & Terus Angkat Kaki Jalan.

  • So Much Noise On Oxley Rise, Where’s The Discussion On Heritage Value Of Geylang Serai?

    So Much Noise On Oxley Rise, Where’s The Discussion On Heritage Value Of Geylang Serai?

    FROM GEYLANG SERAI TO OXLEY ROAD – Defining the sense of place

    It seems that this month has been about the heritage and identity of a place – from the debate about the character of the annual Ramadan bazaar that formed the heritage of Geylang Serai; to the contestation over the fate of 38 Oxley Road.

    Just as one could argue that the heritage value of 38 Oxley Road merits that of national consideration; so does that of Geylang Serai which has been part of the heartbeat of the Malay and Muslim community in Singapore.

    A Different Perspective, An Ally To The Cause: Non-Muslims Showed Greater Understanding And Respect

    Among netizens that responded to the non-halal issues of the bazaar at Geylang Serai include of course our non-Muslim friends too.

    If we did not care to notice, our Malay brothers and sisters may not have seen the way non-Muslims view the matter. Which is actually very heartening.

    For Geylang bazaar in Ramadan to be free of non-halal food, the cause may be closer to the hearts of Muslims, however for the non-Muslims the issue do concern them too and this is what some have came out to say.

    They showed greater understanding and respect for halal requirements. Salute!

    As such, there exist the need to observe halal dietery requirements of bazaars operating in the month of Ramadhan targeting at Muslims. And these are indeed prime examples of how diversity should be celebrated in our multi religious and multiracial society in Singapore.

    Best of all, most Muslims and non-Muslims share this common believe.

    Mohd Khair: Singaporeans Are Capable Of Living Together Respectfully, Beyond Mere Tolerance

    it is very HEARTENING indeed when Non-Muslim Singaporeans demonstrate deep understanding and empathy on the issues surrounding the ambiguous halal status of bazaar at Geylang Serai organised in the month of Ramadhan.

    Read the screenshots shared here in this album. They show genuine concern of Non-Muslim Singaporeans on the issue of non-halal status of some foodstalls at Geylang Serai Bazaar, organised in the month of Ramadhan.

    Such demonstration of care and concern is a fine example of how diversity is celebrated in the multiracial and multireligious society of Singapore.

    Underlying such expression of understanding and empathy is the value of RESPECT, going beyond tolerance. Such thinking also reflects maturity living harmoniously together. Together, regardless of race, language or religion, the multiracial and multireligious society of Singapore should move more in this direction in living harmoniously with one another.

    This album is saved here on this HCRS group as it reflects deep halal discernment among Non-Muslim Singaporeans towards the basic dietery needs of the Muslim consumer. Such discernment is very highly appreciated by Muslims who care so deeply on matters pertaining to halal foods.

  • Advisory: For Those Planning To Visit Bazaar Geylang

    Advisory: For Those Planning To Visit Bazaar Geylang

    Amaran Bagi Yang Nak Ke Bazaar Geylang.

    Amaran #1

    Barang siapa yang nak ke Bazaar Geylang, walaupun tu status Facebook awak, elakkan dari menaip status yg berbau kebodohan tahap gaban. Elakkan dari menaip status seperti,

    “ALAMAK!!! Amacam boleh jumpa dekni kat sini plak!”.

    Ingat. Awak tu bukan Ronaldo atau BeyoncΓ©. Jangan nak feeling ‘famous’ dan orang tak boleh terjumpa atau tegur. Ni Bazaar Geylang! Orang Melayu Muslim mesti lah turun sini. Kalau taknak orang yang kita kenal jumpa pergi taman haiwan!

    Amaran #2

    Barang siapa yang nak pergi Geylang untuk tangkap handsome dan jambu, please make sure muka handsome dan jambu. Jangan step pergi Geylang dgn sebab,

    “I nak beli dendeng ahh…”.

    Padahal nak tangkap handsome. Pada minah2 yg nak tangkap jambu kat Bazaar Geylang, bedak muka dengan warna tengkuk make sure tonasi jangan lari banyak! Foundation mata tak payah nak tarak mcm gila. Nanti orang ingat Kai Kai dan Jia Jia dah susah! Takut nampak beruang panda kat Bazaar!

    Amaran #3

    Harap sesiapa yang ke Bazaar Geylang sabar dengan kesesakkan orang di sana. Jangan jadi bangang tanya kat Facebook ‘kenapa ada ramai orang sey?’ Ini Bazaar Geylang! Kalau nak senyap dan takde orang, pergi kubur! Library these days pon dah bising…

    Amaran #4

    Pada minah2 baru nak 7Up, jangan feeling orang tgh tgk kan muka awak yg Mak masih cucikan seluar dalam dengan menaip status yg berbunyik,

    “Stoppit seyyy dari tadi tengok aku! Irritz purgh!”.

    Eh Bangau! Mungkin dia tengok kau pasal beberapa perkara. Antaranya,

    a) Muka kau mcm orang dia kenal.

    b) Kau pakai baju low-cut neckline nya tapi masih tak nampak apa-apa (Tipah tertipu!)

    7) Mata yang tengok kau tu juling air.

    KALAU TAKNAK ORANG TENGOK, PERGI DUDUK BELAKANG ESBOK RUMAH MAK KAU DAN TOLONG MAK BUAT KUIH BADAK BERENDAM!

    Muka dah macam ikan cium-cium ada hati nak feeling orang tengok…TUIKK!!!! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

    PS: Saya tak marah. Saya cuma keluarkan lendir aje
