Macadamia nuts from Hawaii
A friend who was in Hawaii bought us a small but precious gift. They are the famous Hawaiian macadamia nuts from The Kahala Hotel & Resorts. The nuts are coated with chocolate in 4 different colors and they are a delectable delight. I think this particular 1 pound box cost US$50.

Had lunch with ex-school teacher
I spent my Saturday afternoon with my ex-school teacher Mr Koh Beng Thiam and a classmate at the City Square Mall near Farrer Park MRT Station. We had our lunch at Food Republic on the 4th floor. We had the above for lunch followed by a kopi session at Toast Box. Initially, Mr Koh invited us to his place which is just a 7 minute walk from City Sq. Mall to have coffee. However, due to the rain, we decided to proceed to Toast Box instead. We stayed at the Mall and Toast Box for about 3 hours. We chatted about our school days among many other things.
Incidentally, Mr Koh was also the first principal of Jurong Junior College from 1981 to 1986.
He was Mr Lim Ching Beng's (SIA first CEO or MD) classmate in Raffles Institution. He told us he was in charge of the RI swimming team whose captain was Mr Goh Chok Tong, the former prime minister of Singapore.
81% said yes, 19% said no
This was the poll I conducted on my blog (www.bohtong.org) for the last 2 months. I asked the readers whether I should continue blogging about airline matters and stories since some had asked me to stop blogging. Now the results are out and 81% asked me to continue whereas only 19% asked me to stop. Since I have the mandate to continue blogging, I will do my best to entertain and keep you informed of airline issues.
Thank you for your feedback!
