IMF here.. IMF there.. IMF everywhere!! Alright, I know this is the biggest event for the year but it's way too exaggerate isn't it?? If you were to pass by Orchard recently, you will see a brand new "Garden City".. They had added plentiful of flowers along the roadside as a deco to beautify the heart of Singapore, not forgotting the ugly red/white pokka dots a.k.a clown trees.. Down the stretch all the way to Suntec, the whole place was nicely done up.. All these done in just 2 weeks!! This is how efficient we can be ok.. Remember the smiling campaign? I personally tink it's a flop, pple don't bother to smile anyway.. The service are still as bad as ever, hopefully our service industry can buck up as quickly as how they plant the flowers.. "4 million smiles to welcome you", they should already be contented if they can get half of that amount lor.. Haha!! 16,000 delegates and Hotels are not enough to supply?? My foot!! The Hotels are all panacking abt their unexpected LOW occupancy and had since started to drop rates (Hotels are supposed to charge convention a.k.a super high rates during mega events).. But what's the point when we already scare off pple by telling them that citywide will be god darn packed during the IMF period?? Sigh~ The only compliment I would like to highlight is on our security.. Guess they did a pretty good job by protecting the nation.. Thou also abit kua zhang.. Good luck to those involved in this event (that includes myself).. And do remember to SMILE!! =)
