I'm Back ^^

Arrived last night around 1.30 AM, tired, sleep, wake up at 6 again to go to the office. Open up mail, read and reply the urgent one. Marking all as read on my google reader, quite a nice feeling to just hit the button and mark all of them as read :P

Feel sleepy, still haven't unpack my baggage, haven't prepared anythin' for tomorrow's 14 February. Phew.. lotsa thing to do.

A new year, a new chapter :D

Anyway, for those who haven't got their emails replied, their comments replied, be patient a bit :) Need some rest to restore my energy. But be assure my spirit is full now :D

To all of you who stays with me .. I want to say Thank You :D

Let us all start a new and happy year ^^

Happy Chinese New Year 2008

This month was an exhausted month for me. Lots of office works. Moving out from the old flat/apartment, packing things here and there, unpack again on the new place (with no internet connections T_T).

And for the past few days me and my girlfriend are hunting for new cloths, tidbits, hand-gifts to bring back to my home-country for the Chinese New Year ^^

I'll be leaving on Feb 03 until Feb 12 :D It's a long day off for me :D

So before i take a leave, i might as well

wish you all a happy, healthy and prosperous year of the rat

Meanwhile there'll be no post :P So if you would like, feel free to take a peek of any of my old posts ;)

Have a nice weekend everybody, and see you next year, lunar year that is ;)

Singapore MRT/LRT Map Now and Future

Singapore's Train systems, the MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) and LRT (Light Rapid Transit) are one of the most admirable things in Singapore :D

You can pretty much go anywhere in Singapore just by using MRT, well, mind the pretty much word ;)

The MRT as quoted from wikipedia:

Is a rapid transit system that forms the backbone of the railway system in Singapore, spanning the entire city-state. The initial section of the MRT, between Yio Chu Kang and Toa Payoh, opened in 1987 establishing itself as the second-oldest metro system in Southeast Asia, after Manila's LRT System. The network has since grown rapidly as a result of Singapore's aim of developing a comprehensive rail network as the main backbone of the public transport system in Singapore with an average daily ridership of 1.435 million in FY06/07, though it pales in comparison to the bus network's 2.853 million in the same period.

The current MRT/LRT Map is as follow, currently there's 3 major line: the East West Line (EW), the North South Line (NS), and the North East Line (NE), and also 3 small LRT: Bukit Panjang (BP), Sengkang (SK), and Punggol (PG).

Right now, there's a construction of another line to be added, so called, Circle Line (CC). This one i'm aware of, but to my surprise, apparently we will have more line, the Downtown Line (DT), North Shore Line (SH) which is unconfirmed, and also one more LRT: Jurong Region LRT (JR).

And today, i found out via LesterChan.net that we have another Future MRT/LRT Map. The new future plan, includes the latest announced route by Transport Minister Raymond Lim on 26 Janurary 2008. There'll be more and more line !!

An additional 2 lines: the Thomson Line (TSL) and Eastern Region Line (ERL).

If this was to be done in the next couple of years, then traveling here in Singapore, will be much more efficient, fast, and fun ^^

You see, up until now, i haven't visited all those stations one by one :P even though Singapore is a very small island, and i've been here for more than 6 months now :P

Anyway this Singapore's Future MRT/LRT Map sure is one complicated things :P But it's amazing to see the government are actually planning this thing nicely ^^
