After almost 15 years, I have finally embraced change - at least, for my smartphone.
I have made the challenging switch from iPhone to Android - here is my brand new Samsung Galaxy Note20 Ultra.
I’ll take some time to get used to the new interface, but I’ll get there, eventually. Looking forward to extremely high-resolution photos taken on my phone!
We have discovered what to me is Singapore’s best mee rebus - Power Mee Rebus, prepared by Rahim Muslim Food, which occupies Stall #01-01, Chong Boon Market & Food Centre, at 453A Ang Mo Kio Avenue 10. A huge serving of the yellow noodles with an equally large serving of chicken, with peanut sauce all over them. The dish definitely lives up to its name!
After more than four years in the making, it is my pleasure to announce that Hell’s Museum has finally opened to the public - today.
The museum in Haw Par Villa explores perspectives of death and the afterlife across civilisations, religions, and cultures, and rituals and practices that emerged from these perspectives.
There’s plenty to see, learn, and ponder - a recreation of a burial crypt, a traditional Chinese void deck funeral, a traditional Chinese grave, altars from different parts of the world, and more.
And of course, the 10 Courts of Hell, now air-conditioned and its thousand-year evolution revealed, its multiple layers of history uncovered.
As the museum’s chief curator, it has been a long journey filled with immense challenges and obstacles - and innumerable late nights - but seeing the finished product fills me with satisfaction and pride.
There’s still plenty to work on and improve - but at least the baby’s out. Come visit and I hope you have a good time!
