5 Singapore Stories You May Have Missed This Weekend

#1 Burns Night. Crowds gathered at Hong Lim Park to protest against train and bus fare hikes. But plans to burn an effigy of Transport Minister Lui Tuck Yew did not go ahead

#2 Fandi Roars. Forget Wawrinka’s stunning upset of Nadal in the Australian Open final. He’s got nothing on Khairul Amri’s stoppage time winner for the LionsXII against Selangor.

#3 Future Food. Phew! You’ll still be able to buy chicken rice for $3 in 2034

#4 Casey Closed. The British banker whose insensitive comments about Singaporeans and the public transport system sparked a social media storm was fired and has left Singapore for Perth. Happy Australia Day, fellas.

#5 Get in Lane. Not all of Jagwar Ma showed for Laneway Singapore… but the indie music festival was still a hit. You can see a bunch of great pics here.
