Who's the boss?
A few months back Mahathir went on holiday and Anwar was left in charge.
Since Mahathir was not around Anwar decided to throw some weight around to show
that he is the boss now. The day before Mahathir left he went on an expensive
shopping spree. He spotted something interesting while he was
at Lot 3, a very expensive branded T-shirt with a distinctive word across the
chest - hugo BOSS. He bought it and wear to office the very next day, with a coat
unbutton revealing the word BOSS to everyone.
Suay suay (unfortunately), Mahathir delayed his flight because of his wife's
headache and decided to go back to office to do some work.
When he stepped into his office he caught Anwar by surprise. Anwar then was sitting
with his cross-legs up the table, arms behind his head, unbutton coat with the
word BOSS right across his chest. Upon seeing Mahathir he quickly try to covers
up with his coat. Mahathir realizing what was happening and said, "Its OK
, its OK Anwar, I'm on leave you can carry on." Before he walked out. Of
course Mahathir was furious and went also to LOT 3 to look for something to teach
his deputy a lesson. He thought of an idea and bought a branded T-shirt too to
counter Anwar's by wearing it to office that very afternoon without a coat.
Guess what's the brand? (scroll down)

The Experiment
Long time ago in the western part of Malaysia, a rich tycoon wanted to know
how happy a man can be if you can give him one wish . After many advices from

experiment.
The rules are :

2.The person will be put on a deserted island for 30 years.
3.They have to come back after the experiment to tell the world about their experiences.
4.Food (not liquor) will be provided.
After shortlisting 3 person from a possible pool of 3,000,000 ; they were given
a press conference to say what they want to bring along to the island for 30 years.
Contestant #1 : Billy Klinton (USA)
"I want to have the 30 prettiest PLAYBOY centrefold girls so that I can
make the most beautiful babies in the world"
p/s : PLAYBOY is the magazine where beautiful women have no money to buy clothes.
Contestant #2 : Jon Mayjor (UK)

30 long years later, the 3 heros came back from their long adventure.
The world is eager to hear what the 3 men have to say .......
1.Billy was at the press conference with close to 200 children and 30 estranged
women. His first remark to the press : "It has been a long sexual experience
for me and I am just wondering whether anyone care to buy a child. I will even
throw in the Mother for Free".
2.Jon was still suffering from the hangovers of the booze he had the night
before BUT managed to muster enough effort to shout "God save the BEER. The
Queen can drink the seawater".
3.Surprisingly, Ah Beng brought back all his cigarette and on first sight of
the people, his first remarks were
" $%^*#?x!! (Very vulgar Hokkien Words) Buay Kee Tua lighter leh !! (Forget

on the 72nd floor. So they went up and had dinner. When they left, they stepped
into the lift (only 2 of them). They scanned through the buttons and found that
there was no 1st floor. So they panic. The Ah Huay said to take the stairs but

on the lift and after a while, they found themselves on the 1st floor. So Ah Huay
was suprised! She ask the one who pressed it "Wah, you smart one, how u know??

Getting a loan
Phua Chu Kang walked into a bank at World Trade Centre and asked for the loan
officer. He said he was going to Batam on business for two days and needed to
borrow $5,000.
The loan officer said the bank would need some security for such a loan. Ah
Kang then handed over the keys to his Mercedes that was parked on the street in
front of the bank. Everything checked out and the loan officer accepted the car
as collateral for the loan. An employee then drove the Mercedes into the bank's
underground garage and parked it there.
Two days later Ah Kang returned, repaid the $5,000 and the interest which came
to $15.41. The loan officer said, "We do appreciate your business and this
transaction has worked out very nicely, but we are a bit puzzled. While you were
away we checked and found that you are a very rich contractor. What puzzles us
is why you would bother to borrow $5,000?"
Ah Kang replied: "Aiyah, where else in Singapore can I park my car for
2 days for 15 dollars, huh?"
Ah Meng, Ah Beng und Ah Seng Once there was Ah Meng, Ah Seng and Ah Beng who
were arrested in during the Japanese occupation time for smuggling. "We'll
give you three a fair trial and shoot you tomorrow," said the "Capitan"
of the guard. The three spent a restless night.
"But not to worry, friend" said Ah Meng. "I shall invoke the
natural disaster plan. These Japanese are terrified of natural disaster. Just
watch." so at dawn Ah Meng said he would face the firing squad first and
the other two watched from their cell as the captain said "Ready... Aim..."
"Earthquake! Earthquake!" shouted Ah Meng at the top of his voice. The
Japanese panicked and in the cofusion, the Ah Meng escaped.
Later Ah Seng was led to the stake and the captain said "Ready... Aim..."
"Flood! Flood!" roared Ah Seng and in the confusion he escaped too.
Ah Beng had picked the drift of the plot. It was all a matter of timing, so
he listened as the captain ordered "Ready... Aim..." "Fire!"
yelled Ah Beng.
Ah Meng, Ah Seng and Ah Beng went to a KTV lounge for a beer. When the Tiger draft
was delivered they each noticed a fly floating on top. Ah Meng pushed his draft
away in disgust. "Yuk, I cannot drink such a mess!" Ah Seng shrugged
and picked the fly out of his beer. He then proceeded to drink it. Ah Beng was
very disturbed. He picked the fly up, shaking it and yelled, "Spit it out
you bastard! Spit it out!"
Kiasu
A Mercedes limousine had encountered a red traffic light and was waiting for it
to change when a small Mini also drives up. The haughty businessman in the back
of the Benz started bragging to the Mini owner that his was the best car that
money could buy.
"This is the best car that money can buy. It has ABS, airbags for all passengers,
automatic climate control, onboard computer control system, photochromatic glass,
mini bar, a television with satellite dish embedded in the roof, blah blah blah...."
At this point the Mini owner interrupted. "But do you have a video in there?"
The light changed at this point, and the Benz driver pulled off. The businessman
in back felt a bit down that he didn't have this simple item, and that very day
had one installed in the limo. A few days passed by, and again the limo was at
a traffic light when the businessman spotted the Kancil again. It was pulled over
to a side, with the glasses all steamed up, and steam coming from a half open
window. Upon seeing this, the businessman got out of his car and knocked on the
window of the mini. After a few moments, the mini owner poked his head out (which
was dripping with water, by the way!).
"I installed a VCR in my car", said the businessman proudly.
The mini-man responded: "You got me out of the shower for THAT?"
Gan Bei
Once upon a time in China, there was a wedding dinner. The dinner occupies
only half the restaurant. The other half was occupied by some caucasian tourists.
As the wedding couple hop from table to table to toast the guests, the cheers
of "GAN BEI" (meaning happy & joyous drinking) gets louder and louder.
One caucasion gets more and more irritated as the couple get closer to him.
"GAN BEI"....................."GAN BEI".................."GAN
BEI".........!!" the cheers continued.
Finally, the irritated caucasion couldn't take it anymore. He stood up on his
chair and shouted, "IF YOU CAN'T PAY, THEN LET ME PAY FOR U!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
On the street, a reporter was asking three pedestrians with the same question,
"Excuse me, what is your opinion of the food shortage in Iraq?".
The first person, a Swiss, "Shortage? What is that?"
The second, an Albanian, "Opinion? What is an opinion?"
The third, a Singaporean, "Excuse me? What is excuse me?"

Something Very Singaporean
In Singapore, living in Highly Dangerous Buildings (HDB), most people already
used to Pay And Pay (PAP). Not only pay, you Pay Until Broke (PUB). As if that
not enough, somebody still Purposely Want to Dig (PWD) from you. What to do if
you are in the Money Only environment (MOE).
With the current Mad Accounting System (MAS), you are forced to Pay the Sum Ahead
(PSA) which make some people to Purposely Owe Some Banks (POSB) and live on Loan
Techniques Always (LTA). When you are sick, you might
be able to use the Cash Prior to Funeral(CPF) fund if you happen to be admitted
to the Money Operating Hospital(MOE) on time. If you sure bad luck one, you may
meet doctor who Never Use Heart (NUH) to treat you and that would make you Sure
Give up Hope (SGH) When that happens, Call Home, you deserve a better place to
recuperate. To help to ease the traffic, motorists have to pay Cash On expressway
(COE).
If that doesn't help, the Lousy Tax Accounting (LTA), can always Everytime Raise
Price (ERP) on the road. If you don't own a car, you can always go for the Mad
Rush to Train (MRT) and get squashed Side By Side (SBS).
A tall story. (For Singapore)
Please go into your pocket and search for a $1 coin, and take a good look at
it - I had done so this morning in the toilet !
It is round, no doubt, but has a unique Octagonal design - which is a symbolic
figure in Chinese Geomancy or feng shui. This is where the story of this coin
begins.
1. On the island of Singapore, lives a very influential man named LKY (Lee
Kuan Yew). He is very particular about feng shui, ie, man's balance with nature.
There is a particular day and also the time of the day to inaugurate an important
event. There is also a particular colour of his dressing , when it comes to important
occasions, and so on. He has a feng shui mentor in the person of a famous monk,
a particular Venerable who died recently. LKY would seek the advice of this Venerable,
whenever he has to make an important decision.
2. The $1 coin comes into circulation at the time of the MRT construction on the
island ( can check date if you have doubts ).
It goes that the Venerable had advised LKY that MRT tunnelling work will be bad
for the feng shui of the island, its prosperity, etc. Firmed on pushing ahead
with the project, LKY asked if there is anything that could be done to circumvent
the bad feng shui. Yes, replied the Venerable, but it may be impossible to implement.
LKY to the Venerable - please speak. The Venerable said that EVERY household on
this island must have or must display a `pak kwa' or a symbolic Octagonal ( 8
sided) object.
Oh no, there will definitely be racial riots ! How could LKY force every household
to have a `pak kwa' at home? Hey hey said the wise LKY - EVERYBODY will like to
have as many `pak kwas' as possible, and the $1 coin was born !
4. This may sound ridiculous, but it is for you to think about it ! How? believe
or not.....???
There were four guys who were in the final stages of interviewing for a prestigious
job. They were from Harvard, Yale, MIT and NUS. The company decided to fly them
all in for dinner and a final interview.
Over dinner at a fine restaurant, the president of the company told the men that
all were very worthy applicants and that he wished he could hire them all, but
that they only had enough money budgeted to hire one person.He told them that
he would call each of them in one at a time for a final interview the next day
and that he would ask each one of them the same question. Whoever answered the
question the best would be the one hired.
All applicants agreed that this was fair. The next day, the first applicant
called in was from Harvard. The president posed the question, "What is the
fastest thing in the world?"
The young man thought for a moment and replied, "That would have to be
a thought."
"Why do you say that?" asked the president. "Well, a thought takes
no time at all ..... it is your mind in an instant, then gone again."
"Ahh, very good. Thank you," replied the president. Next the same
question was posed to the young man from Yale, "What is the fastest thing
in the world?"
The young man paused and replied, "That would have to be a blink."
"Why?" asked the president. "Because you don't even think about
a blink, it's just a reflex. You do it in an instant." The president thanked
him, then called in the next person.
The young man from MIT was asked what the fastest thing in the world was and after
hesitating for a brief moment, he replied, "I would have to say electricity.
Why? Because a man can flip a switch and immediately, three miles away a light
will go on."
"I see, very good," replied the president.
Then, the young man from NUS was called in. He, too, was asked, "What
is the fastest thing in the world?"
"That's easy ....." he replied, "that would have to be diarrhea!"
Rather stunned, the president asked, "Why do you say that?"
"Well, last night after dinner, I was lying in my bed and I got the worst
stomach cramps and before I could THINK ..... BLINK ..... or TURN ON THE LIGHTS
....., I shit all over myself!!!!!"
During the ASEAN meeting, all Prime Minister of the ASEAN countries were present
except for Goh Chok Tong who was represented by LKY. During a conversation, Dr.
Mahathir of Malaysia says, "I came up with a bright idea to produce Proton
cars and with a initial investment of M$1 billion, we now make M$50 million a
year. That is what I call Money Mind."
Mr. Suharto of Indonesia says: "I am going to start a car manufacturing plant
to produce our National car for only $500 million RP and it will generate $50
RP million a year. Isn't that smarter."
LKY of Singapore was not impressed and say, "I told my Land Transport
Minister to spend SGD$500 to buy a old printing machine and also made SGD$50 million
a year."
Everybody was taken aback and asks "What the fuck can you do with just SGD$500
only ?" And LKY replied "I use the machine to print COE !!!"

DON'T CRY FOR ME SINGAPURA
It was not easy, you'd think it hurts
Though I try to explain how it felt
That I could still get up and run
After two hundred and fifty-one
It took much effort
All you will see is a girl you once knew
Altough she's not wearing anything at all
And trying to do it some more
I had to let it happen, I had to change
Couldn't spend all my life down here
Looking out of the window, in a blue pinafore
So I chose freedom, running around,
Trying every man I knew,
But no dick impressed me at all,
I didn't expected it too
Don't Cry For Me Singapura
The truth is I never left you
All through my orgies, my mad orgasms
I've done my best now, so buy the video
And as for headlines, and as for shame
I'd never invited them in
Though it seemed to the newpaper
They were all I desired
They're all illusions
They're not truths the reporter claimed them to be
The answer was clear all the time
I love it, so what's your problem?
Don't cry for me Singapura
Don't read the newspaper either
All through their wild lies, their crazy stories
They hurt my loved ones, to make more money?
Have I screwed too much
Is there no one else tonight I can think of to try to take
But don't decieve yourself, tell me that it's true
That you took delight in it too!

The judge asked Ah Seng, "Have you ever been arrested?"
"No," came the reply.
"So, you have been a good citizen?"
"Well, as I'm under oath, I can only say I've never been caught before."
The prosecutor looked hard at the judge and began his final summation.
This was the work of no amateur, this was the work of a brilliant, cool and calculative
criminal and......."
At this, Ah Seng, the defendant, cut in, "Don't try to flatter me! I won't
confess!"
Ah Fook, a recruit, was a bit of a loner. He took to drinking heavily whenever
he booked out for the weekend. One weekend, he returned so drunk that he was told
to see the Commanding Officer immediately.
"Look Ah Fook, why don't you shape up?" said the Co, who was something
of a softie. "There is a real future for you here if you sober up. You could
become a corporal or even a sergeant! Isn't that something to look
forward to?"
Ah Fook replied, "Well Sir, to tell you the truth, that is really not good
enough for me because after a few glasses of Tiger, I feel like a colonel!"
Here's an advice for the girls out there :
"Girls, marry a National Serviceman! He can cook, sew, make bed, and is already
used to taking orders!"

Lee Kuan Yew and Goh Chok Tong were among the world leaders in Hong Kong for the
handover ceremony and were at a tea party at the governor's mansion. As can be
expected of such a grand event, the dignitaries were served with the finest silverware
and the rarest of antique porcelain crockery.
Goh Chok Tong looked at the exquisite teacup and saucer and decided that he would
keep the saucer as a souvenir of the occasion.
When he thought nobody was watching, he nonchalantly slipped the saucer into his
coat pocket.
Lee Kuan Yew, who was on the other side of the room, saw Goh Chok Tong and his
hijacking of the antique saucer. He was fuming. How dare Goh Chok Tong do that!
What will happen if somebody else had seen him? It
would be most humiliating if he was stopped and searched!
However, nothing happened and Goh Chok Tong was able to mingle with the crowd
again. This started Lee Kuan Yew thinking. Anything Goh Chok Tong can do, I can
do better. Besides, the antique saucer was very nice and he wanted one as a souvenir
too. So how could he just stand idly by and not do anything.
Lee Kuan Yew decided that he would out-do Goh Chok Tong. He was going to souvenir
both the cup and the saucer. When he thought that nobody was looking, he quietly
slipped the saucer into his coat pocket.Then just as he was about to slip the
cup in, Jiang Zemin walked up to him and angrily wagged his finger at Lee Kuan
Yew.
Jiang Zemin was furious! How dare you steal our country's treasures?
Who do you think you are? Soon a crowd gathered. Goh Chok Tong on noticing the
commotion also walked over to see what was happening. Lee Kuan Yew was very cool.
He was laughing. President Jiang, he said. I'm glad you saw what happened. I was
merely performing a magic trick for you and your honoured guests.
You see, the trick is like this. I put the saucer into my coat pocket.
But the saucer will appear out from Goh Chok Tong's coat pocket. Isn't that right,
Goh Chok Tong?
Goh Chok Tong sheepishly pulled the saucer out of his coat pocket to the applause
of the crowd. Gone was his souvenir. The canny Lee Kuan Yew had outsmarted him
again.
There was once a tourist who visited Singapore for business. She intend to
stay for quite a long period. She had to pass-by a foreign bank in Shenton Way
every morning in order to get to her office.
In the bank, there was this Singh sercurity guard who caught her attention.
It was his well-kept and curled moustache that attracted her. She told herself,
" I have not seen such a beautiful moustache in my life before. How I wish
that I could have just one strand of it as a souvenir to bring home."
Thinking about this, she walked on to her office. So, she walked pass the bank
everyday before and after work just to have an admire on the man's moustache.
One day, she could not bear the feeling of the admiration any more. So she
walked up to the man. "Excuse...me, mister, I admire your moustache very
much as it is sooo... beautiful and well-kept. Would you be so kind enough to
give me just a strand of it for souvenir? Pleaseee...." said the girl timidly,
afraid that the man would get offended.
On hearing this, the man pulled out his pant and took out a strand of hair
and gave it to the girl. She was so shocked and said, "No..no..no.., I mean...
a strand of your moustache..."
Pointing to his moustache, "Here showroom..." he said. And pointing
to his private part, " there storeroom."
One Cantonese speaking family has just employed a new maid who can only speaks
English.
The mother has problems teaching the new maid how to talk to the baby into
taking milk from the bottle because the maid couldn't speak a single Cantonese
dialect.
The father pondered for quite a while, called the maid over and instructed
her to keep saying "5 5 6 9 9 ... 5 5 6 9 9" whenever she wants to feed
the baby from the bottle.
Puzzled, the maid followed his instructions and hey presto! the baby finished
the milk each time. Well, curiosity got the better of her, so she couldn't help
asking the father ...
The father nonchalantly replied, "5 5 6 9 9 in our dialect is 'fai fai
sek nai nai' which, literally translated is 'hurry up and finish the milk'
How DA NEW (Big Bull in mandarin) got married
Once a upon a time in Singapore, there was a man named DA NEW.DA NEW is a very
talented man, he has the ability and the intelligence to accomplish almost anything.
But DA NEW has one fault in his character, he is very lazy.
When it is time for DA NEW to get married, he does not bother to look for a
wife. Finally his parent decided to act for him, they put a ad in the papers looking
for a partner for DA NEW. In ad, they put in all his talents and good points.
That obviously run into many lines.
Strangely no one responds to the ad. The following day his parents place the
ad again, still no one responds to the ad. This went on for a few weeks and his
parents lost hope. Therefore they decided to go to China to look for DA NEW's
wife.
In China, they place the same ad (in mandarin this time), but still no one
responds. This again went on for a few weeks. Then his parent sat down and thought
very hard, they concluded that on one believe in the ad. This is because they
have put into the ad all DA NEW's talent and good point, which it is all true.
So they decided to put in his only fault, his laziness. In the next ad, they added
"DA NEW (big bull) PI QIAO (is a bit) LAN (lazy)".
This time girls from all over China came in bus and truck loads. There was
so many girls until DA NEW's parents couldn't decide who is the best girl for
him. Out of shock they ask one of the girls why is the respond so good after they
have added DA NEW's laziness. The girl didn't understand what they were asking.
She said that in China, people read from right to left and not left to right,
and the ad reads, "LAN QIAO (penis) PI NEW DA (bigger then bull).
Finally DA NEW found his wife and they lived happily from then on.
Ten Fruits
There were three men who were lost in the forest. They were then captured by
cannibals. The cannibal king then told the prisoners that they could live if they
pass the trial. First step of the trial is to go to the forest with the cannibals
and get ten pieces of the same kind of fruit. So all three men went separate ways
to gather fruits.
The first one came back and said to the king, "I brought ten apples."
The king then explains the trial to him. You have to shove the fruits up your
ass without any expression on your face or you'll be eaten.
The first apple went in... but on the second one he winced out in pain, so
he was killed and went to heaven.
The second one arrives and shows the king his ten fruits were berries.
When the king explained the trial to him he thought to himself that this should
be easy. 1... 2... 3... 4... 5... 6... 7... 8... on the ninth berry he burst out
in laughter, therefore also was killed.
The first guy and the second guy met in heaven. The first one asked, "Why
did you laugh, you almost got away with it?" The second one replied, "I
couldn't help it, I saw that the third guy brought durians."
Mahathir had a think-tank retreat with his cabinet in Bintan resort to discuss
his Vision 2020... the economy wasn't doing too great, so they decided they needed
a perk up...
Everybody was cracking their heads........ when Anwar announced that he had an
idea: "Send a Malaysian to the moon!" All agreed, saying that it will
bring back national pride etc... Mahathir was sore that it was Anwar that came
up with this brilliant idea but had to go along anyway... not wanting the thunder
stolen from him .
He volunteered to personally select the astronaut. So, the Malaysians got into
a frenzy as Sultans wanted their favourite nephews to be selected and a nation
wide search was conducted. Of course Mahatir got his hirelings to do the running
until 3 candidates 1 Sultan's nephew - a Malay naturally, 1 Indian and 1 Chinese
(so what's new?) were shortlisted for final selection interview by Mahathir. Wanting
to give the impression that the selection was fair, he instructed that the interview
would be conducted with the candidates present. The blue-blooded bumiputra was
scheduled second to make it fair.
The Indian was first. Mahatir asked: "My dear kawan, what do you want in
return for going to the moon?" The Indian replied, "Sir, I want 1 million
ringgit". Mahatir was surprised, so he said "But going to the moon is
for the country, why do you want so much money in return? You will become famous
all over the world!"
Whereby the Indian replied "In case I get stuck on the moon, at least I know
my family will be taken care of with the million dollars"
Mahatir was not convinced so he told the Indian to go home and wait for a reply.
The prince came next. Immediately, he said "Unlike the Indian, I will need
only 500,00 ringgit for my wife". Mahatir was pleased, but before he could
say anything, the prince continued "I have 4 wives, so I want 2 million ringgit"
Mahatir was shocked again, so he asked the prince to return home and wait for
a reply.
Finally the Chinese came and said "Tuanku, I want 3 million ringgit"
Mahatir was furious, so he bellowed "Why do you want 3 million for?"
the Chinese replied "One million is for you, sir" Whereby Mahatir was
extremely pleased. "the second million is for my family" "That
sounds fair" said Mahatir "and the third million?"
"The third million is to send the Indian to the moon!"

3 POWs were caught by the Germans in a war. They were told that they will be
shot at while they ran 100 meters. If they survived after that they would then
be set free. So, the 3, a British, a Japanese & a Singaporean, lined up at
the start. Bang!
They started to run like they never did before. At the 80 meter mark, the British
got shot down. Before he went down, he gave a patriotic shout, "Long live
the queen" and died.
At 90 meters, the Japanese was shot. Before he went down, he shouted, "Banzai"
and died.
Now the Singaporean was at 93m, 95m, 98m, 99m .... ... Bang! He, too, was shot
down. Before he died, he shouted "KAYU LAH!!" One meter also no discount!"
One day, God sent three presidents, Clinton, Ghandi and Mahatir to Heaven by
mistake. So he told them, "I've sent the three of you here too early. You
aren't supposed to die yet.
Therefore, I'm going to send you back down and before that, you can ask me a question
that you want to know about."
So, Clinton asked "When is America going to become big and busy and rich?"
God answered,"Another 50 years." Clinton wept and threw a tantrum.
God asked him his reason for his behaviour and Clinton said, "I'm afraid
I don't have that long a life to see that."
Next, Ghandi asked,"When is India going to be big and busy and rich?"
God answered,"Another 100 years. Ghandi reacted as Clinton did and gave the
same reason for acting that way.
Lastly, Mahatir asked, "When is Malaysia going to be big and busy and rich?"
This time, God wept.
It is often disputed where the best businessmen come from. Some say the best businessmen
are the Jews, some say businessmen from Pakistan and some say it's the Chinese.
Well, the following story should give you a clue to the true answer.
Three businessmen were sitting on a park bench. One was an Pakistani, the other
a Jew, and the third a Chinese. A fly landed on the arm of the Pakistani businessman.
He swatted the fly, killed it, and then to the astonishment of the other two,
he ate it. A minute later, a fly landed on the arm of the Jew. He swatted it,
killed it, and then flicked it off his arm. The Chinese businessman then got up
from his seat, picked the fly of the ground, showed it to the Pakistani, and asked,
"You want to buy fly?".

There was a prostitute who had three different rates based on the following three
conditions:
1) $10.00 to do it on the grass.
2) $20.00 to do it on a couch.
3) $30.00 to do it in the bed.
It's in the morning when a Mexican walks in and slaps a $10 bill on the table.
So they go out and do it on the grass.
Around noon, an American walks in and slaps a $20 bill on the table. So they
go for the couch and do it on there.
About the end on the day, an Ah beng walks in and slaps $30 on the table.
Happy from seeing the money the prostitute says, "Wow,...you have class".
The Ah beng responds, "Class my ASS... Three times on the Grass..
An Indian man was booked into an SIA flight to Bombay.But as this was his first
time in an aeroplane, he made a few preparations that were out of this place.
When the stewardess came around to take orders for the in-flight meal, the Indian
man declared loudly, "I have brought my own lunch. Make sure you don't charge
me for food and drink!"
So, as everybody was given their in-flight meal, the uncle began spreading out
his own home-cooked meal. The man sitting next to him was an American history
researcher, who was curious about the food. "Excuse me, what is that drink?"
he asked. The Indian man picked up the yoghurt-based lassi drink and said, "Milk
of India!"
Then the Indian man took out several pieces of chappatis and started feasting.
"And what is that dish?" asked the curious American.
"Wheat of India!" replied the Indian man proudly.
Finally, the Indian man took out some desserts. He offered some to the American.
"What is it?" asked the American.
"Sweet of India!" replied the Indian man.
After the meal, everyone was settling down when the Indian let a loud ripping
fart go "PPPPHHHHUUUUTTTTTT"
"What was that!?" asked the American in disgust.
The old Indian man replied coolly, "That's Air India!"
A Taiwanese man with very poor, practically no, English knowledge once visited
the US. His name happened to be:Teng Xiao Ping.
At the Immigration, the officer asked him a few questions to verify his true
intention of coming to the US:-
First he was asked:"What is the last name of our first President?"
Not knowing English neither what was the question, he guessed they must >have
asked him for his family name. So he replied:"Wa Sing Teng."
(in Hokkien meaning My Last Name is Teng).
The officer heard of "Washington!"(same sound) so passed him of the
first question.
Second question was:"What do u come to the US for?"
This time the Taiwanese thought, naturally he wud be asked of his first name.
So he replied:"Xiao Ping." The officer heard of:"Shopping!"
so nodded and proceeded with his third question.
"What car do u drive back home?" The tourist thought he was asked
of his marital status, so he exclaimed:"Wa Bo
Bo."(in Hokkien meaning I have no wife).
And the officer heard of:"Volvo!" So smiled with compliment and asked
again.
The fourth question was:"Who is the most popular basket ball player here
in the US?" By this time our Taiwanese
friend was getting a bit impatient and annoyed hence shouted:"Mai Ho Wa Ja
Dan."(meaning: Don't let me here wait).
The officer heard of:"Michael Jordon!"
With great appreciation of this tourist's wide knowledge, the officer let him
passed without further
harrassment.
Singapore office sports (as they don't do others):

flying off the handle,
beating around the bush,
running down the boss,
going around in circles,
dragging the feet,
dodging responsibility,
passing the buck,
climbing the ladder,
wading through paperwork,
pulling strings,
throwing the weight around,
stretching the truth,
bending the rules,
pushing the luck,
shooting arrows from behind
and playing hide and seek
