Leong Pei Qi - I-Pod

I-Pod was originally a product from American but China get the hand of the i-Pod technology and futher expand it. Now in China, i-Pod is different from the American's but is more high tech with more abilities,the sale of i-Pod increase rapidly as it attracted mostly teenagers with its colour and special designs.e.g,cigarette,handphone and even spotcar. Its a hot hit and very popular in China. This lead to American
unable to carry on this project as people will choose to buy the fashionable and popular i-Pod with lots of abilities from China than buying it from American even though its the original.

Comment: China had been copying a lot from other countries and futher inventing them into something better. Its not that it was bad but i think they can work with the original company to make the product a much better items for all people to use and enjoy.Even though now i think that the i-Pod that china make are really very attractive, even i will choose to buy their's than buying the original.Therefore, i really think that the company of all countries can choose to work together, but then it will lead to no personal product from different countries which make that item more valuable.

Leongpeiqi-Increase of fuel price in China

China's fuel price had increase and had created the citizens unhappiness and anger.Recently, the price of fuel has been increased and is in the state of increasing. In China, the sudden rise in fuel coat had annoyed mostly the drivers and companies. They though that the rise in fuel price is after the Beijing Olympic. Some of the drivers(mostly owned large cars) are frustrated about the price as it was higher than normal, but it seem it did not affect much on a small majority of drivers, who owned a small car and need not travel long distances. Having the fuel to increase before the Beijing olympic prove that the country was ready and confident to deal with the problems produce from the citizens.

Comment: The rise of price for the fuel really make the whole world going instant as mostly all the technology and vehicles run by fuel. With many country to futher develope, the amount of fuel will increase continuously.Examples, country likeSingapore,China and American. To my own personal view, i think that the world had to much vehicles and harmful factories, even if they are our trasport system and other useful things that bring convience to our daily lifes.But,having too much vehicles means more polluted gas is release into the atmosphere that turns out into what we all know, Global Warming. It damage our world, the nature and soon it will be us. Despite cars, people can choose to use bicycles instead, but still these did not solve the problem as another problem will appear. The world is our home, but we somehow damage it without knowing. The amount of fuel used now and in the past was a lot different, which also this show what we humans have been doing to the nature.

Leong Pei Qi - Chikungunya Case At Farrer Road

The chikungunya virus(mosquito-borne disease) has cropped up in Farra Road after two people in Teachers' Estate off Upper Thomson Road were found carrying the virus.The teachers' Estate cases were the first time that locally-contracted cases of this virus had been reported outside the Little India this year. A 37-years-old expatriate housewife had found carrying this virus,which developed into a fever and sought treatment later on. She was warded and remains in hospital.Investigations showed that it was a case of local transmission as she ans her family did not travelled out of Singapore. A blood screening was conducted among the family members and none tested positive for the virus.Places visited by the housewife had been inspected by National Environment Agency while MOH(Ministry of Health) continue to monitor the situation. 24 cases have been reported so far,including the Farrer Road infection,16 locals.of which 13 were from Little India.

Comments:This news allow Singaporeans to be more careful when they are in these areas from chikungunya. The people living in these places will be more cations and will follow the mosquitos-breeding precations steps. By doing so, the numbers of mosquitos will decrease rapidly as they have no place to lay their eggs. Having the number of mosquitos to drop, i believe that this virus will surely be prevent and stop.Less lifes will be lost and Singapore will be a much cleaner and more a hygienic place to live in.

Leongpeiqi-DAD'S STILL A HERO

A special day-Happy Fathers' Day had been celebrated from fathers to their familes, wanted to show their childrens that even though they have done wrong and made mistake in the past and was put behind the bars, they still want to let their childrens know that they would like to be their heros no matter what. Joseph,a prisoner at kaki Bukit Centre wrote a play with the help of the society for Reading and Literacy. The theme came about after he think about his parents,how he thinks that his father as a hero,to him. So, he wanted to be his childrens' hero, to give them secure, to live up to their expectations.The play give the prisoners something to look forward to and as part of the celebrations-organised by the Centre for Fathering(CFF)- the prisoners will also spend the day playing games with their childrens, a rare treats since they are separated by a glass barrier during visitation sessions.The prisoners are pleased and excited.

Comment: To me, i think this a wonderful event as it given the fathers a chance to do something for their childrens and let their fathering be felt. For this day, the Centre was so kind to let the fathers practice their play and give them the chance to bond with their family members, expecially their children. I'm glad that Singaporeans(Officer and organiers) is so kind even though the law are very strict.Singapore give them a chance to turn over a new leaf and prepare this event for them. This not only let the prisoners a chance to be with her family but also to let them know that Singapore willing to forgive them and let them start a new. Thats what Yellow ribbon is for.
