  Speaker 1: home right here on 987, Singapore's number one hit music station.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: I was very curious to know what's the story of
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: Hikaru Utata, and I found out she actually debuted in
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: December of 1998.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: So she's 43 years old this year, but she looks 25.
• 0:53

  Speaker 2: she's celebrating her 28th year. Congratulations.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: So I, I believe um they became one of Japan's
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: top artists at the age of 15. So wow, amazing
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: how that collaboration came by. Anyway.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: A warm welcome to the show in case you just
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: joined us and you're up this early for some reason.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: Look, man, I must say this. Every time it's a
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: school holidays, I panic a little bit. Why? Because for
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: some strange reason, I can't get a cab or a
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: Grab or a Gojek or a Tada. I think the
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: drivers are resting and sleeping in as well.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Not just that, maybe they took their kids.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: For a break. Yeah, so they need a break too, right? Our,
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: our private hire car
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: drivers can just leave one for me.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: One near your area,
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: right? Or maybe it's time I did I did a
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: car rental.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: Actually, you know, um, back then when I was an
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: intern at another news channel, I was actually assigned to
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: the early morning show, OK. So imagine, you know, we
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: start at 6 a.m., right?
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: For TV site, if they start at 6 a.m. for
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: the live broadcast, the news assistants are in at 3 a.m.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: So I went in, I was one of the ones
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: that went at 3 a.m.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: This guy near Pasir Ris at the time when I
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: was staying near my parents, he drives a cab. He
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: knew that I would go there every morning. He would
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: just wait for me and he would accept my, my booking.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: So that was the arrangement we had. After he realized
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: every morning I was going at that time, he said, Girl, la,
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: I fetch you every day. I was like, Alright, lah,
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: let's go.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: That's
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: the closest we'll ever get to having an actual driver. Yes,
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: like
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: private driver, right? Yeah. I wonder how he's doing actually.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: Sonia, I have some bad news for you.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: What's the bad
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: news?
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: This morning our now affectionate favorite football club is no
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: longer in the Champions League. Bordo Glin is out. So
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: apparently on the first leg, they beat Sporting Lisbon 3-0.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: The second leg, which was played
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: yesterday from Portugal, yes.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: So Sporting Lisbon actually beat them 5-0 to progress to
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: the next round, 5-3 on
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: aggregate.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: OK, wait, so Bodo Glen is actually not too bad.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: Of a club. Yeah, I
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: mean, they were the biggest surprises for this Champions League
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: season,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: especially with a name like Bodo Glen, but I know
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: they don't know what Bodo means in this part of
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: the world. They don't. They are Norwegian. They have no idea.
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so you won't be hearing me say Bodo Glint
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: anytime soon
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: on radio. I'm quite sad. I'm quite sad, even though I,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: I know nothing about the club. I only know they're
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: from Norway, but I'll still get
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: you the Bodo Glinn jersey.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: OK. OK. What's the color? Yellow. OK, not too bad.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Yellow and.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: It's quite in this year. Coming up in just a
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: few minutes, I wonder what we would have done in
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: this particular situation on board the MRT. I've never personally
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: witnessed something like this before, but I always wondered what
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: to do in times of, well, crisis.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: Crisis
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: I would say it's a mini crisis lah. It's a
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: mini crisis.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: Offering your seat to someone you think is pregnant. No, no, no, no, no, no, no,
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: because that to me is a crisis.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: No, no, no, nothing to do with that.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Why? Because you've, it's happened to you before,
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: is it?
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: Did you mistake someone?
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: And the lady gave me the most angry scowl ever.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: Well, you didn't try to save the situation by like, oh,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: would you like to sit if she's offended, like, no,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: I'm getting.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: It's, it's a
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: case of digging the hole, you know what I mean?
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: But then
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: the thing is like if you don't offer and what
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: if she's really pregnant? Yeah, so either way
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: you lose better safe than sorry, damned if you do,
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: damned if you don't. So yeah,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: just be like, oh, I'm going off anyway. They just
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: go off and take the next train.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: I was at Clementi. Where am I going to get
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: off for a while? Why?
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: I don't know. No, thank
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: you. It's OK.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: Anyway, coming up in just a bit, um, maybe this
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: will get you thinking, what would you do in this
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: situation on board a train? All the details next. So
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: I asked you a question earlier. I said, would you
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: know what to do if such a thing happened on
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: board a train or maybe even anywhere in public or
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: on board some form of public transport,
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: OK? Does it involve giving CPR?
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, it's nothing to do with that,
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: but it could have.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: escalated to quite a bad situation if nobody did anything, OK?
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: But thankfully, on board your public transport, transport, including your trains,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: there's an emergency button where you can press to stop, right?
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: And to alert the station rather so they can see
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: what they can do next. So over at Admiralty Station,
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: just reported in the news, um, yesterday evening.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: A power bank caught fire. And I'm talking actual flames,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: not just sparks and smoke. It was actual flames, completely
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: caught fire. People were heard, um, were seen screaming and
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: running away, and I think, um, someone pressed the emergency button,
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: so the staff, you know, were activated and it pulled
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: up at MOT station. But this woman, um, whom I
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: assume the power bank may belong to.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: I don't want to make assumptions, but it seems that way,
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: and they're still investigating right now. She was seen stomping
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: on the power bank that was full up in flames
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: with her, with her foot to put out the flames,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: to put out the flames. So I was like, wow,
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: this lady is damn brave. Either that or it was
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: most likely maybe the power bank belonged to her and
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: she got a shot, and she just did what she
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: could to put it out for public safety.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: On
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: the flip side, yes, just helping Singapore just
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: helping
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: on the MRT.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: I'm curious to know.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: What it is, um, but the funny thing is, right
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: opposite her sitting very calmly is a man with a
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: walking stick. Seems like an elderly man. He's just looking
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: at the whole thing unfold. He's the only one sitting there,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: by the way. Everybody's vacated the, the zone. He's just
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: chilling there watching the whole thing go down.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: Maybe he judged the situation to be manageable, manageable, and
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: he went, OK, you know what, this is too much
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: effort to.
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: to stand up with a walking stick. I'm just gonna
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: sit here and wait till it goes up. It's like
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: the lady having the, uh, the hawker center meal that
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: was on fire
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: in January.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that was, that was a bad. I can't
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: say the word. That's a meme, yeah, that was cool. Um, she, however,
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: was quite calm while she was stomping on the power bank.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: So hopefully they'll see what's going on, but I think, um.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: According to our, our experts and sources as well and
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: professionals out there, they're saying, hey, you know, please, uh,
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: make sure that your power banks are not like you
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: don't buy from some cheaper third party place, you know,
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: that anyhow charge and then it catches fire
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: when it comes to banks, I think a few brands
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: might be the ones that are more dependable Xiaomi power
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: banks and maybe even Belkin.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, balcony is really good. Yeah. And just make
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: sure that, you know, if, if you, if you sense
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: that there could be something wrong with your power bank,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: like it's overheating like crazy, please go send it in
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: to check or, you know, maybe just don't, don't use it.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: Sometimes it's not just your bank, it's the cables that
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: you buy, right, the cable might not be equipped to
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: handle the voltage, the amount of power that's surging through
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: it.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, so make sure you got it good. OK,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: got it right.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: Bring it out. $5000 up for grabs. Still no luck.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: I'm just taking a look at the board right now.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Someone during halftime said fingers tapping on a hard surface,
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: definitely not the right answer.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: I think
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: that one is a bit too obvious and too easy.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I heard from some of our friends like
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: and Nick, you know, during lunch and all that, um,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: some of the.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: The guesses are quite repeated already at this point. So
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: we're not even gonna bother repeating those answers because, you know,
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: those are no-brainers. Cancel it off.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: So we're playing for $5000 in a bit, but also Sonia,
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: before that, can I take you to Yishun?
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: OK, of course, I don't mind. It's been
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: a while. My nemesis is at it again.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: The birds, yes,
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: and not just any bird, it's the,
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: the, the morning bird.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: The crows,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: the crow, sorry.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: I'm OK
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: with the crows, the crows, the crows.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Find out what happened, well, not directly to Joe, at least,
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: in just a bit. Wake up.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: Good next year.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: Kicking off your day
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: in the
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: best
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: way.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: It's Sonia and Joakim on
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: the shock
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: circuit. Good morning and welcome to the show in case
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: you just joined us. Happy midweek and the middle of
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: your March holiday.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: We're going back to Yishun for a while before we
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: play for $5000
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Sonia. But first, Tame Impala with Jenny going to kick
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: us off right here on the show. Stay tuned. Singapore's
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: number one hit music station.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: Definitely see you there at Media Corp's cloud nine happening very,
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: very soon, but for now we're going to Yishun first
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: before we go to the east for cloud nine.
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: My nemesis. They are at it again,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: the crows.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: But this reason, right, again, it's the kind of reason
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: that will split the comment section down the middle.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: So, unfortunately for a lady, apparently in the last 3 weeks,
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: she was pecked more than 10 times by crows.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: It's because, OK, I read up that usually because they're
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: defensive of their nesting area or their babies.
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: You
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: are absolutely right.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: The nest
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: she
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: was, but she was just walking past it, but the
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: crows won't know unless you tell me you're a crow
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: whisperer and you're able to communicate with them. Stop it.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: If I could communicate with the crows, I will tell them,
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: Look guys, you're in trouble. No, I won't say leave me.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: You're in trouble. You better start behaving yourselves
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: properly.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: Ah, they get,
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: is it? Yes, OK, OK.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: So, unfortunately, you're right, the, the nests are around the
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: residential areas of Yishun, and some of these crows sometimes
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: they'll fly into the 6th floor corridor or the 5th
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: floor corridor of a certain Yishun HDB block, and
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: why,
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: why do they do that?
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: Because I think the nests are nearby, you know, the
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: trees are almost the same height.
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: So I guess residents are kind of a little bit worried.
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: Oh no, will I be attacked because not just this lady,
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: but a man's ear as well was packed by the crows,
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: but he was also walking by near a nested
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: area of a crowing your own business. That's just your
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: way home.
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah. If there's a way to tell these crows that, hey,
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: we're not going to touch your nest. Yeah, we're not,
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: we're not hurting you.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: We're just trying to get to point from point A
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: to point B. That's all. OK.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: How do we communicate this? You try, you, you're the one.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: Don't know what breed of bird that is, but it's
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: definitely not a crow.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: It's more of a
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: cuckoo It is not. Coming up in a few minutes. I,
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure whether the phrase this could have happened
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: to the better of us. You know, it may have
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: happened or it might happen if we ever become parents, OK.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: I'll fill you in about how a particular item caused
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: a family to miss their flight.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: A particular item.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: And you said this could have happened to families.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: It could have happened to the best of us. I
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I feel like sometimes, you know, you
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: may overlook certain things.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: But this one is a family, is it?
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: It's a family, Singaporean family. I'm
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: gonna guess some toy.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: You're right, some toy. But why did this toy cause
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: them to miss their flight? All the details. Well, I
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: guess we don't need to say who sang that and
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: what's the song title anymore right here on 987 Singapore.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: number one hit music
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: station.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: Can I say I love that she did her own
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: Dracula trend. Yes,
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: so cute.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: And it's just Jenny walking down a random place. No,
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: it's
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: just her being her,
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: and it's millions of likes and views.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but if we walk down a random place, 00,
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: I got to pay for views like some influencers,
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: but
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: anyway, I'll stop. Wow, where is that coming from? OK. Anyway, um,
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: you can tell me off. So, so just bringing you to, um, the,
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: the airport right now, OK.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Imagine this, you are looking forward to a holiday and,
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: and you're, you've just put in so much effort to book,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: not just the flights, but accommodation, you know, you've settled
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: all the transportation, you and your family, you're like ready
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: to go. OK.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: And this, for this particular Singaporean family, they were at
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: the airport already and they were going through security checks
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: as per normal, right? What they did not realize was
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: that they didn't check their son's bag properly.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: It turns out, uh, he actually had a toy gun
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: in the hand carry bag. I know, I know, that's
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: for sure. And, and before you say like, ah yeah,
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: toy gun only, I mean, yes, there are certain, they
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: look quite young. The kids look pretty young. So maybe
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: it's those, you know, like really water gun looking type
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: of toy guns, right?
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: But when you go through somewhere as important and as
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: um tight in security as the airport, these things 100%
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: will get flagged up.
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: I
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: actually learned this when I was very young because my
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: godparents were coming back from San Francisco. They, they bought
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: me this FBI or San Francisco Police Department, you know,
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: it's toys, handcuffs, pistols. It got confiscated. So
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: they took it
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: away even though it's in a box. Yes. Oh my gosh.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: A similar thing happened to me. I'll tell you more
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: in just a bit, but unfortunately for this family, they
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: missed their original flights altogether because of the intensive checks
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: and of course, they have to write the report and
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: everything to explain what happened, right? So, um, they shared
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: this story because for, for this, for the parents, they said, hey,
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: you know what guys, this is a really good reminder
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: for parents out there. Please double-check your kids.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: Uh, hand carry bags and luggages because you never know
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: what they accidentally brought on, right? OK,
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: so they shared it, hey, we are just advising you. Yeah,
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: they, they took, they took full responsibility for it. OK, good.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: So they
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: weren't angry, saying, how can you cancel our flight, pay
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: more
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: money for
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: news. So actually the recounted the incident on Instagram, um,
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: saying that she hopes to help prevent other families from
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: having the same experience because they also had to top
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: up like
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: 2 $3000 to change the flight and all that. So
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: they took a full responsibility. They said this is such
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: a painful reminder to double-check everyone's bags before traveling.
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: I, I might say something that might polarize Singapore here,
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: but I feel given their graciousness to the whole situation,
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: this is the perfect marketing opportunity for an airline. Jump
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: on board, sponsor them a flight.
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: But tough.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: Like cannot do that because you're sort of rewarding the
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: behavior that, you know, not that it was bad behavior,
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: it was unintentional.
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: It's more the graciousness, but yes, I know that means
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: people will say, oh, so now bring toys
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: exactly, exactly. No, I don't think it'll go that way,
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: but I'll, I'll give you my experience. So you know
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: how I always gonna check one, right?
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: Like when I, when I go anywhere, I always get stopped. And,
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: and I'm just like, OK, check my bag, you know,
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: nothing going on there. In like a few seconds he said,
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: please open your bag. I'm like, what did I, I
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: was like, what did I bring, right? So they opened it.
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: It was a hand carry bag. It was for a
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: very short trip only.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: They said, Oh, your cosmetic bag, please, like the, the
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: toiletries bag. So I opened it and they said, What,
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: what is that? Then I said, what, what, what, what
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: was what? And they said, that silver item. So I
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: took it out and I, I almost faced Pal Jokim.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: So just a few days before I went for this flight,
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: I went for a perfume making class, OK, and it
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: was part of an event.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: Unfortunately, for this particular perfume brand, uh, the, the, the
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: mini perfumes that they were giving away were in the
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: shape of bullets. OK, OK, I was like, I, I
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: did not even realize that it was there because it
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: was such a small item and it's meant to, OK,
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: maybe this perfume company didn't quite think about it as well,
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: you know, I think it was just part of their campaign. Like,
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: I don't know what they can't remember some spy related things,
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: so that's why they customize it that way.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: So, um, obviously it got confiscated, but I wasn't, I
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: was just relieved. I was like, OK, that's, take it,
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: take it, it's fine. I didn't realize it was there,
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: but they did laugh lah because they saw the engraving
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: and stuff of the name and the and the
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: brand.
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: So again, kudos to our friends over at the ICA
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: and for not taking any risks, even though it's a
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: toy or a
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: perfume.
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: Don't take any
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: chances.
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: Thank you for keeping Singapore safe. We really appreciate it.
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: We
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: feel safe in return, right? And we are just minutes
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: away from you potentially walking away with $5000.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: That and also whether you get the guess right or wrong,
• 16:58

  Speaker 2: dollars. Maybe $6000 next week
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: we'll see. OK. Listen very carefully. Here's your secret sound

• 18:03
  Speaker 2: Secret.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: that
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: Good

  Speaker 1: Where are you off to this early in the morning?
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: I'm off to work

  Speaker 2: this morning. Alright. Alison, hopefully you're going to work $5000
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: richer courtesy of us here on 987. Are you ready
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: for Secret Sound?

  Speaker 1: I

  Speaker 1: hope so. I hope so too. Have you been listening
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: to all the answers on other shows?
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: Yes, for the past one month.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: OK, very good. Very good. Very good. I'm expecting quite
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: an original answer here today. Listen very carefully.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: Allison, for $5000 what is the 987's secret sound?
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: I think it's the clicking of chopsticks.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: The clicking of chopsticks is your final answer. Yes, I
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: hope so. Alright, let's find out.
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: You are
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: incorrect.
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: Your chance to play
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: 987's secret sound continues.
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: that sound.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: Alison, I'm so sorry to report that this guest actually
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: has been set before picking of chopsticks, but it's OK, Edison.
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: You know what, at least you called through. You are
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: still qualified for our big grand draw happening very soon, OK?
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: Alright, see you there. Have a good day, Alison. Thank you.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: One guess win big.
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: What's that sound?
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: Wake up.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: next to.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: Kicking off your day in the best way. It's Sonia
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: and Joakim on the shock circuit. Good morning. Welcome to
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: the show. Your chance at a $100 shopping experience thanks
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: to Ow Days, a leading eyewear brand, not just in Singapore,
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: but around the
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: world.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: Want to speak about the uh HDBs here in Singapore, Sonia.
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: The upcoming one
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: coming up in just a bit. Singapore's number one hit
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: music station.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: About to open up the phone lines with a rather
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: interesting question Joakim asked me this morning. Never really thought
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: about it, but I'll share.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: I'll share my my bit of the story after yours.
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: I don't know why, but I feel like I'm working
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: for MND right now, taking in customer and residents feedback.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: Do it. Go ahead. OK, so by now you would
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: have heard about potential plans for new BTOs here in Singapore,
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: of course,
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: yeah. The one that's caught many people's eye, Pearls Hill.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: Yes, the Outram area near Chinatown also.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: Apparently, I don't know whether they follow up with it,
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: but there's the artist impression already of a 60-story BTO.
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: That is high. Yeah,
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: wow.
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: I mean, given how small we are here in Singapore,
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: we either go higher or go underground, you know what
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: I mean? But people on social media and even on
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: some of the citizen journalism websites, right, they're saying things like, 0,
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: 60 stories BTO. I'm not gonna bid for that.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: Because the lift waiting times, what if the lift breaks
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: down and I live in maybe the 45th floor, climb
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: must climb 45 flights of stairs, is it? Yeah. And
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: then this one guy said, oh yeah, and due to
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: weather as well, right, sometimes lightning strikes might feel personal.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: What a funny comment. What a funny comment. The
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: weather gods
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: are flat they see you like, Hey, hey, this guy,
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: this guy
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: like.
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: And, and according to a survey, right, uh, apparently out
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: of 3,098 respondents, 31%, they would rather live from level, uh,
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: they would rather live in level one or level 1,
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: to level 10. 28% said 11 to 20, 14% said
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: 21 to 30.
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: 8% of them said 31 to 40 and only 19%
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: said 41 to 60.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: OK, wait, so my question is, is it too late
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: for them to make changes? I mean, like maybe, you know, OK,
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: let's consider just going up to 40, for example. I
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: don't know whether construction started already, but maybe if it's
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: not too late.
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: Say, OK, maybe 60 is too high. Let's go to
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: 45
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: or 40. I'm guessing, you know, when you lay the foundation, I'm,
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: I'm guessing the foundation laid for a building that is
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: 5 versus 60 is gonna be very different.
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: So currently I believe the highest BTO flat pinnacle at Duxton,
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: it's 50.
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes, yes, you're right.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: Um, that's very high. Look, I've lived in my parents'
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: flat almost my whole life, right? Level 13. So that
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: to me is OK, it's significantly high, really, nice view,
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: you know, they've got a nice breeze coming through as well.
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: I personally, I, I live on the 7th floor, so that's,
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: that's also not too bad.
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: So are the lifts at the very fast, like Schindler's
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: lift? You mean my, my parents' place? I mean it's
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: the regular HDB lift la.
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: My, my lift is quite fast, I would say, but
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: that being said, I have been to friends' uh, places,
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: apartments where they lift pretty high, like 20-something or 30,
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: you know, that kind of, that kind of apartments. And
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: to be honest, sometimes the lift will take quite some time,
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: simply because of the number of floors, right, no matter
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: how fast it goes. My thought is always this, OK.
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: There was once I needed to really use the bathroom, right?
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: And the, the, the lift time taken to go from
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: level 1 to 30, for example, is like at least
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: a couple of minutes or maybe 12 minutes, I don't
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: know how long, I didn't count. But I was just wondering,
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: what if someone has an emergency, like, I don't know,
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: like you really need the toilet or you are not
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: well or something. What's going to happen? You're stuck in
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: the lift, no choice.
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: So I guess uh if this Pearls Hill 60-story BTO proceeds,
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: they need to take lift tips from our friends over
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: at Swiss Hotel or Capital Land because it goes very
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: fast.
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: I think the penthouse is like 2025 or 28. I'm
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: not sure what it is.
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: They actually have a private lift lobby for some of
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: them who live on those floors. So I'm guessing that
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: it will skip like quite a bulk of all our
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: normal plebeian floors, you know what I mean?
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: But for a BTO, if you're gonna put a lift,
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: yeah, I know
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: that's everybody wants a private lift as well, right? Yeah, yeah.
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: So 669-11987, come, we take your feedback, OK. Uh, what
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: is the ideal floor
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: that you would like to live in? Yes, yes, let
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: us know.
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: And in exchange, a $100 shopping experience to own days
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: could be yours. Um, speaking of, uh, which floor you
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: would live on, any preferred floors? I think for Joakim,
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: you said anything above 5 or 7, right? I
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: mean, look, I've been the second floor.
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: all my life.
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: So you said 7 or 10 would be ideal
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: for you,
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: right? 7 or 10 would be great, at least with
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: a good view of whatsoever, not someone else's house.
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: I mean, unfortunately because we are such a small country
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: and quite dense, right? Chances are
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: And you, you may find it difficult to find a
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: place with unblocked view, you know, you, you might see
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: someone else opposite, but we're heading to our messages first
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: to find out what's your ideal floor. Saying
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: good morning to username Vroom on WhatsApp. Hey Sojo, lift
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: lobbies with mirrors. It solves the waiting time issue. Self-appreciation
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: or secret admiration of others standing at the lobby, and
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: apparently it's a studied technique.
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: Really, there's an article on Google saying mirrors reduce the
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: average waiting time for elevators emotionally.
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: Oh, so you occupy yourself lah. Perhaps. OK,
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: OK. One more coming in from Caden. Morning, Sonia and Join.
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: Fun fact, I used to work at the concourse and
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: they have this double-decker lift that serves odd and even
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: floors only. Pretty useful for a sixty-story building. Yes,
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: agree. So it's something like what I mentioned earlier.
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: Where the lift in certain lift lobbies will skip some floors. OK,
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: fair enough. Yeah, so maybe they might have to do that.
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: Keep your calls and texts coming in over at 669-11987
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: or 90050987. What's the ideal floor you want to live
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: on when it comes to a BTO? Yeah,
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: or just like an apartment or anything, you know. Give
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: us a call right now 669-11987 in exchange, a lovely
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: shopping experience thanks to.
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: days could be yours, so get your calls in now.
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: Talking about what would the ideal floor be for you
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: to live on, especially if you had a choice. So
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: today's one inspired by the 60-story built to order flat
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: that could be coming up over at Pearl's Hill. Give
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: me one second.
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: Go ahead, go ahead. So I mean, look, 60 is,
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: is pretty high, I would say, right? And based off
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: um some of the surveys done so far, not a
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: high percentage of people are.
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: Willing to live between what the floors of 50 and 60,
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: right? Yeah, we got by the time the lift 60
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: HDB loan will be paid off.
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: Facts,
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: facts cheeky and plenty more hilarious messages coming through, but
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: we've got Hisham on the line right now. What about you, man? Honestly, I,
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: I've been in the middle floor most of my life,
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: but I think an interesting floor would actually be the
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: first floor. Why, why you, you actually get this, this
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: large open area and the town that I'm in, the
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: first floor tend to have a higher ceiling, which is
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: pretty nice, I would say that right? I never realized that.
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, it almost feels like you have your own.
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: Balcony or lawn outside. Sonia,
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: you're
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: the kind of person that cannot stay on the first floor.
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: I
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: cannot. I tell you why. Because roaches, right? Yeah, yeah,
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: insects and whatever roaches,
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: rodents, and maybe even stray cats might call your place
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: home. Yes, yes, and you know, that's true. Is it true? Yeah,
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: that's true. That's true. That's something to consider. Yeah, so
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: even now though I live on the 7th floor, I
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: still put the, you know, just buy on Shopee my
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: dad bought for me like basically, OK. It's like those
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: um foam stoppers at the bottom.
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: Of your door so that insects and unwanted guests won't
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: creep under your door and come in, you know, I'm
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: so paranoid I have to do it.
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: So, Hisam, can you please tell me more? What's the
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: middle floor like?
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and what, what constitutes the middle floor? What do
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: you mean by that? Um,
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: somewhere from maybe
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: 6
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: to
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: 9th
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: floor. Yeah.
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: So sometimes if you're all the way in the middle,
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: the downside is
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: sometimes you have to wait for the lift for people
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: way above you.
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: That the waiting time isn't too
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: long.
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: Even if
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: the
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: lift
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: is down, you can still take the stairs down.
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: Still not so bad. Yeah. And
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: what's your view?
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: It's not
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: amazing. It's not
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: too
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: high,
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: but at least I can still see some nature that,
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: you know, there's still something to look at.
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the one that is outside our house.
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: One can only dream of. So, there you go. Thank
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: you
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: so much, Isham. Have a nice day.
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: You too.
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: Bye. I'm talking about the ideal floor you would love
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: to live on if you had a choice.
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: Or if you are about to get a new place
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: or BTO very soon. Uh, one more message that we're
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: going to read here first. One
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: coming in from Melissa, a little morbid here, inverted commas.
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: I live on the 3rd floor and I always wanted
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: to stay on high floors. In January, there was a
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: huge fire in the penthouse, 15th story, and we had
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: to evacuate using the stairs. I had never been more
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: thankful in my life for living on low levels, even
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: saw a family and a police officer trying to bring
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: an elderly.
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: wheelchair-bound lady down the stairs.
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: Oh
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: my God. You see that is, that is worrying. That one,
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: you know, it's a bit of a crisis moment. But
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: fires can break out at any level. Yeah, if, if someone,
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: for example, leaves a PMD charging overnight and this person
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: stays on the second floor, you know, could be trouble
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: as well.
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, you know, I just hope that I think
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: and I have confidence and faith in our Singapore infrastructure
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: and you know.
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: Things that are here as well for the safety measures.
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: So hopefully, you also have helpful neighbors, neighbors. I think
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: that's very important. Yes,
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: your neighbors need to wake you up and bang the
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: pots and pans. I'm the one that's a light sleeper. Oh,
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: you'll be
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: the first one waking up, I think, yeah. OK, when
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: we come back, we've got Suha on the line and
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: more messages, don't go anywhere. What about what is the
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: ideal floor you would like to live on if you
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: could choose again?
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: Wow, we have a breakdown, Sonia, in terms of how
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: to install
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: of emotions. No,
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: no.
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: For the future 60-story Pearl's Hill BTO. Morning guys. If
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: I had a choice, I would choose to, I would
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: choose the last level because now I can be the nuisance.
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: But to solve the lift issue for Pearl's Hill, it
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: will require 12 lifts. 4 lifts will serve level 1
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: to 20, then 1 will serve 21 to 40.
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: And one will serve 41 to 60. At all times,
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: two from each will be at level one, while the
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: other two will be at the last level of which
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: it serves. And when one goes down, one will go
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: up to cover.
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's, that's a good suggestion. And you know, some
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: places actually do that. Like I mentioned, they will skip
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: a bulk of the floors to get you up faster.
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: You need
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: to.
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: This to NMD right now,
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: right now. I'm very curious to know what their plans are,
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: but we'll see what else, uh, you know, is updated
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: as we go along. We've got a quick one here
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: by Sue Jaime. OK, what about you? What's your ideal floor? Uh,
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: I
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: will be at the lowest floor. Lowest floor. Why so? Yeah,
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: so that I can shout at my kids come home.
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: After all your messages and your calls, only one person
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: can walk away with their own day's shopping experience worth $100. Yeah,
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: and thank you so much for all your calls and texts,
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: sharing with us your opinions about which floor or which
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: level would you rather live in because of the 60-story
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: BTO over at Pearls Hill coming up very soon.
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: So if you could choose, you know, like what would
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: that be? I'm not entirely sure like when my parents
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: got
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: Um, the availability for their apartment, right, for their flats,
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: and it was number 13. I did ask before, number
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: 13 considered OK? They said, yeah, in Asian culture it's
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: not considered a bad number. So I'm like, oh, cool.
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: I mean, I know most people here in Singapore would
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: level 4
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: or 4 people at least
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: or maybe even 24.
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: Really? Anything with the number 4 in it. Hey,
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: by the way, the Disney adventure.
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: 40,
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: because it's gonna primarily be in Asia, so I think
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: they get it. Yeah, which I appreciate actually. It's cool. Anyway, uh,
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: we've got tons of messages and calls coming in today,
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: but only one person is winning. Today's
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: winner, let's give it to Hisham who called us earlier. Hello.
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: Congratulations. Here's what you're winning. This shopping experience is worth $100.
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: You're gonna enjoy some premium craftsmanship from our friends at
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: Ow Day.
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: Its premium made in Japan lenses with great looking frames
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: that are paired seamlessly for crystal clear clarity.
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: They have over 600 stores worldwide, with 40 of them
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: being here in Singapore across locations.
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: And you know
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: what I love about them? Because they are, I guess,
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: born and bred in Japan, right? They have precision engineered
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: Asian fit for our faces. Nice. Here's the thing, because
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: for our nose bridge, it's not going to be.
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: As high as some of our other friends from other
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: parts of the world who are blessed with very nice
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: nose bridge, but they, they, the way that they've done it,
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: the refined joints with the optimized nose bridge will create
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: that clean, minimalist silhouette that's very comfortable for Asian fit.
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: Actually, I think maybe it's time for me to get
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: new
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: frames.
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: I, I think so too, yeah, it's been a while,
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: right? Gotta check my vision.
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: If you think so, it's a bit blur sometimes.
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: Too much screen time.
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: See lah, see, I told you.
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: What do you tell me? Come,
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: I
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: think stop, stop scrolling at night in the dark before
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: you sleep. You do that, don't you? You know me
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: too well. I know. Wake up.
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: Good next.
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: Kicking off your day in the best way. It's Sonia
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: and Joakim on the shock circuit. Good morning. Coming up
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: in just a bit, oh well, our friends from Carousel
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: Autos got you covered with yet another $100 shopping experience.
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: And a
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: new era for running here in Singapore,
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: Sonia. All the details coming up within the hour. Please
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: stay with us. First, it's Black Pink, Singapore's number one
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: hit
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: music station.
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: If you are a running fan here in Singapore or
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: you know someone who loves running.
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: Then more or less ever since news broke about this yesterday,
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: we've ushered in a new era of running here in Singapore, Sonia.
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: Absolutely, and this is very relevant for you actually. So
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: what
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: was affectionately known as the Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon, it's
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: now going through an entire revamp and guess who are
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: the new title sponsors? I already know our friends over
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: at BYD.
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: Amazing. So what is the official title gonna be like
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: once they take over?
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: You ready? Yeah, The BYD Singapore International Marathon presented by Adidas.
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: Ah yes, so there's more than one, you know, sponsor
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: at this point. So mark
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: these days down 4th, 5th, and 6th December. So 4th
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: on a Friday morning, it's gonna be the Kid Dash,
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: as always, my dash,
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: it's gonna be the 5 km and the Standard Chartered
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: 10 km. So Standard Charter are still the official bank.
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: They're the official band.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: OK,
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: OK.
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: On Saturday morning, it's the Adidas half marathon.
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: Oh, so many things going on now, OK. And
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: then on Sunday, December 6th, it's the BYD full marathon,
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: but they are all operating under the umbrella of the
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: Singapore International Marathon.
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: Wow, to be a fly on the wall in those meetings.
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: Can you imagine how long they took to sort all
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: this out? So
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: I was
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: very fortunate to be at the press conference yesterday where
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: everyone in the
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: Running scene. They were there. I'm talking Sore Yong, Nicole.
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: We had Vanessa as well, and all sorts of other
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: runners who were there, and they're all excited for this
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: because I think it's an all local team doing this,
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: and in the local team, they're all runners, so I
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: think they know what Singaporeans want. OK, that's good. And
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: hopefully it all goes well for the first iteration again
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: happening December 4th, 5th, and 6th. But here's my question,
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: which had no answers yesterday.
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: you ask a question I
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: was asking around, but people like oh you know we'll
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: reveal more details soon.
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: I feel like I know what you're gonna ask. Will
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: the winner get a car, right? Yeah.
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: That means gets a car.
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: Nicole
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: or Vanessa gets a car
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: as well.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: I think they should get more than one car at
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: this point. Coming up in less than 10 to 15 minutes,
• 36:37
