  • 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.

  • Commentary: Boycott Geylang Bazaar? Rising Rental And Non-Halal Food Are The Critical Reasons

    Commentary: Boycott Geylang Bazaar? Rising Rental And Non-Halal Food Are The Critical Reasons

    Bazaar Ramadan…

    Part1
    Sewa gerai makan= $17000
    Sewa gerai jual pakaian= $7000
    Tahun demi tahun, sewa gerai semakin tinggi. Tauke gerai buat bidding, kes tamak nak mampos. Tahun depan confirm naik lagi. Peniaga melayu semakin berkurangan kerana tak mampu bayar sewa yg tinggi. Dulu sewanya tak setinggi macam ni, dulu ramai peniaga melayu tapi kurang pembeli. Masa tu ramai yg cuma lalu lalang see see look look. Peniaga musiman jadi serik nak meniaga. Sekarang peniaga melayu semakin berkurangan, kita pula complain. Kesian pada peniaga melayu, tak berniaga kerana sewa yg mahal. Perit orang kita tak rasa. Adat berniaga ada pasang surut. Untuk elak dari benda ni berlaku, kalau orang Melayu bersatu hati, kita boikot bazaar geylang kasi tauke rugi. Kalau takde penyewa gerai, tauke gigit jari. Biar dia bayar hutang bank sendiri. Kita belanja aje kat Joo Chiat dan pasar Geylang. Kasi untung peniaga tetap yg dah bertapak bertahun2 kat situ. Takde bazaar takpe, Geylang tak ‘berseri’, tak best pun takpe. Yg penting kita ajar sama itu tauke. Abih macam mana peniaga melayu nak berniaga? Online kan ada. Peniaga gerai makanan boleh buat kat bawah blok, yg tu betul Bazaar Ramadan. 100% makanan halal.

    Sambungan bazaar Geylang…
    Part 2
    Semalam dah draft tapi hold dulu. Nak tembak kena save peluru.

    Menang bidding= $1.79m
    Paling murah 1 gerai= $7k
    900 gerai= $7k x 900= $6.3m
    Tauke untung= $6.3-1.79= $4.51m
    Peniaga untung atau tak, tauke gerai tetap untung $4.51m, untung peniaga bergantung pada sales. Kalau rugi, peniaga tetap kena bayar sewa harga $7k dan lebih. So orang peniaga Melayu kena pandai, boikot besar besaran, kalau tauke menang bidding, tapi takde penyewa, dia tetap kena bayar duit bidding $1.79m. Kalau bazaar Geylang jual babi pun, biarkan aje sb menteri2 kita tak halang. Its ok sb itu bukan tempat Melayu/Islam lagi. Kalau dia hutang bank, itu pandai2 dia settle dgn bank. Kita jangan jadi barua pada tauke macam ni.

  • 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 Beyoncé. 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!!!! 😂😂😂

    PS: Saya tak marah. Saya cuma keluarkan lendir aje

  • A Different Kind Of Saman: When You Park Your Bike Illegally Outside TKC This Ramadan

    A Different Kind Of Saman: When You Park Your Bike Illegally Outside TKC This Ramadan

    Someone shared on FB that he was making a quick stop to buy food for break fast outside TKC. He had no choice but to do an illegal parking since there was no lots, and when he got back to his bike, he saw a saman paper stuck to his seat. Which rider won’t curse when you kena saman right, even in Ramadan? But lucky upon inspecting the saman paper, the guy found out that it was something entirely different.

    FB post:

    Ouh now i get the joke 😂😂😂😂
    I was at geylang bazar and the parking lot was full and breakfast timing was like in 40mins so we just park At the side like everyone else and buy a quick bite and when we get back to our motor bike we got saman and when we read properly they just selling helmet bag 😂😂😂😂

  • Customers Should Stop Complaining About Price Of Bazaar Food

    Customers Should Stop Complaining About Price Of Bazaar Food

    People who complaint about prices in bazaar that are actually standard. Do you guys even think that we have rentals to pay , we have our costings to pay , we have workers to pay , we have water to pay , we have electricity to pay.

    You should try open a stall next year and see if you can sell ur product as low as possible with high rental of 15k and above.

    Thank you for reading and please for “that” person who complaint please throw away that hatred to people who are trying to earn for a living.

    Orang meniaga bukan menipu.
