987 THE SHOCK CIRCUIT REPLAY🔁 090926 · 987 The Shock Circuit

• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Good next.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: Kicking off your day in the best way. It's Sonia
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: and Joakim on the shock circuit. Well, coming up in
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: just a little bit, this entire show, we've got two
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: wonderful experiences just for you. We want to party with
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: you 25th of September. 987's come out and play. Yeah,
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: that's and a Japanese dining experience worth 100 bucks. Stay tuned.
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: We're just about to hit play on Miley.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: Cyrus's new track is called Bass Persuades. I went to
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: do a quick search because I'm not sure if you've
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: seen her share about it on Instagram just yet. Um
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: she did share a lot of like beautiful visuals, slightly grungy.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: You can see that she's reminiscing in the 80s and
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: the early 2000s as well.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: And um in plenty of her, her interviews, she actually
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: said that she seems to have dropped her last name
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: ahead of the release, which means she just goes by Miley. Wow, yeah,
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: Kanye and Yay. I don't know. Yeah, so is it
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: just a stylizing sort of situation?
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: Do we still call her Miley Cyrus being a national
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: radio broadcaster? I'm curious about that. Maybe because the surname
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: Cyrus has a lot of association to her dad, Billy
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: Ray Cyrus. Maybe and perhaps also like her identity of
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: the past. Maybe she wants to change her branding a
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: little bit, but
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Um, it's very reminiscent of like Britney, Madonna, and she
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: said that, um, music takes a hold of us. We
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: feel it, sing it, dance to it. It's powerful and vulnerable,
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: and my heart is always full of heartache and every
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: part of life in between. OK. But can I also
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: ask for Miley's core her workout routine.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: In her workout routine, she looks so good, you know, like,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: and not in a skinny way like she's fit. I
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: say this respectfully. If I ever had to do a
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: Hro doubles with a celebrity partner, it'll be Miley Miley
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Cyrus mixed doubles one time. Why not? Who would I ask?
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: Chris Hemsworth one time. I think he'll do everything for me. Yes,
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: he'll carry you and do it as well.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Chris Hemsworth. Wow, that's a great one. So
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: I believe in the month of April, most of us
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: here in Singapore would have heard of the beverage container
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: return scheme. BCRS, and we've got machines islandwide here in
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: Singapore encouraging you to return your cans and your bottles,
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: those with the BCRS logo.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: And yeah, in a way to ramp up recycling and
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: sustainability here in Singapore. I mean, from what I understand,
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: not all the cans and bottles qualify.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: But for what reason actually is it the material used
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: or perhaps, but you must also check, OK, do they
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: have the BCRS logo? So most of the time now
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: whenever I get my Coke Zeros or my qualify, right?
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: I see the BCRS logo on it. But here's the
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: question Are you willing to keep the can and walk
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: to the nearest machine? I know, I know it's effort
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: to put it in there to get either 10 cents
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: to your Easy Link or your Pay now.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: So, here's the thing, like, do people take bottles and
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: cans that they find in public? You are absolutely right. Oh,
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: they do. No, I mean, I would think that is
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: the next thing I might do if I see, hey,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: actually I can earn some money from this, you know.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: It's really the saying one man's trash is another man's
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: gold brought to life. I want to give a shout
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: out to this guy called Arnell who posted a video
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: on TikTok and it's gotten traction.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: And apparently he's gotten $80 from simply collecting some of
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: these bottles and cans apparently in dormitories. I think it
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: could be a day where he got $80 in returns
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: because he's not bad or perhaps maybe he collected all
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: these cans and bottles. Hold on, hold on. So I,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: I managed to find it in the article.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: he received close to $80 in refunds since he started
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: collecting in July. So from July till round about now,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: I guess he's earned $80. So it makes me wonder
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: how did another guy get almost $1000 I saw that
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: collecting all the bottles and cans. It could be because
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: maybe he went around like.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: His neighbors, like, I can help you bring it down.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: I mean $1000 bottles and 10,000s, you know. How did
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: he do that? I know I'm very curious now. I'm
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: sure there's a story if he's getting 10 cents per bottle,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: there you go, it's 10,000. The only, the only way
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: is to, to go around the entire block, I think,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: maybe several blocks. But the thing is
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: Are you willing to put in the effort though? So
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: now I'm just wondering whether they going into the bins
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: to look into it and pull out all the cans
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: and bottles, which could be quite disgusting. I know, I know,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: and we don't encourage that either, right? a hygiene standpoint. Yeah,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: so if you have a BCRS machine nearby and it's,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: you know, within walking distance, just try. I, I would
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: say I am the worst person for this because do
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: you realize why?
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Why? I don't drink any canned drinks. Do you notice that?
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Have you ever seen me request for a drink in
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: my life? Very, very rarely. Yeah, extremely rare. And even
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: I mean I have my own like cup, I guess,
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: my own bottle and my own cup and I have
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: a bottle in my car. So I actually don't use
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: any cans or plastic bottles, right? That's one fun fact
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: about me.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: that you may not have noticed you are exempted and
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: safe from the BCRS. Yeah. So, uh, yesterday evening, I
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: decided to go for like a brisk walk around my
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: area just to, just to get moving, you know, ever
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: since I injured my ankle, I haven't been moving that much, right?
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: Well done. So, um, it's, it's a lot better now,
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: by the way, um, I forgot to put the guard
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: on today, but it's OK. Ah, it's dirty. I need
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: to wash it. Can you leave one in the studio
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: in I only have one. OK, fine.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: You can, you can buy one for me for my birthday. Yeah. No, no, no, hopefully,
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: I don't actually need that anymore, but yeah, anyway, um,
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: when I walked over to East Coast Park, right,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure if this brings back any memories for
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: you at all. When you were in school, doesn't matter when,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: like secondary school or maybe even, you know, when you
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: went to higher education, tertiary and all that, right? Holding
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: hands with girlfriend. No, you did that, is it? At
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: East Coast Park? Not at East Coast Park, but maybe
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: Bishan Park West Coast, OK, Bishan Park, yes.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: I think some people might have seen you grow up
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: like in the process. No, no, no, I was just
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: wondering if you ever had you and your friends go
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: for like a barbecue uh over at like one of
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: the parks because you have, right? Because this brought me
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: back to like my poly days especially.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: When we were, you know, a bit more adult enough
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: to be able to know what to do, versus like
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: when we were in secondary school or primary school, obviously
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: you're still relying on your family to do these things, right?
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, usually chalets and all of you $10 each.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Hot dogs, chicken wings, some fish balls, and some of
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: the bros will be in charge of, I guess the
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: barbecue pit or something. So every, like every barbecue pit
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: that I went to, it almost looked like it was
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: a student group or a family like because of September holidays, right?
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: It just brought me back, man. I was like, damn,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: like it's been a long time since my friends and
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: I did that. I mean, aside from now, I guess
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: you book your whoever has a condo, the barbecue pit there,
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, but this just really brought back so
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: many memories and just want to give you a big
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: shout out. Enjoy your time, really. Come.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: Our next 987 get together do. OK. Who, who's in
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: charge of the barbecue? It's definitely not me. I'm guessing
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: it's just me and Avery. We can call Lex and
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Josh to join us as well. I, yes, yeah, maybe,
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: maybe the bros will be in charge of it. I'll
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: just be there to taste test for you. I'll be
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: in charge of the drink station.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: You don't even buy canned and bottled drinks. Yeah, no,
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: I mean, um, the cocktail station. Oh, that's what I meant. OK,
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: very interesting because today being the 9th of September, that's
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: where our friends over at Grab.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: Apple is tomorrow morning at 1 a.m. That's tonight, right?
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Tonight slash tomorrow morning, Thursday a.m. I mean, yeah, yeah,
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: kind of. If you wanna find out what the latest
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: iPhone has in store for you, please make sure you
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: tune in. But our friends over at Grab, they were
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: gonna be releasing the micro drama series. I fell in
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: love with my Grab driver. Yeah, we spoke about this
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: two days ago actually. We opened up phone lines for
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: this to social media.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: Very split on the timing of the release of it,
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: and I'm guessing some of these people who have already
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: spoken out, they, they have a certain image of what
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: the micro drama series might encourage and also a certain
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: image of what the micro drama series might be about.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: So my guess is Glenn Yong could be the son
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: of the CEO, and that's the plot twist undercover boss,
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: a little bit, but I think Grab has heard the
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: concerns and
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: They put out a statement on their account saying that, hey,
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: we hear the concerns being raised about our first micro drama,
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: and we completely agree that safety, clear boundaries and respect
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: in everyday interactions should never be compromised. I'm gonna fast
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: forward to the next paragraph. We chose an exaggerated title
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: to fit the micro drama genre, and in hindsight, we
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: should have been more thoughtful with how the title came across.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: Well, I think what initially was meant to be like
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: a hook, right, or like a bait in a way, uh,
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: I think got quite a bit of, you know, comments
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: in the social media space, but there are some people
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: who also commented and said like, Hey guys, don't need
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: to be so sensitive lah. Let's just enjoy the, you know,
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: there were some people that commented that, yeah, and then
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: there was a debate going on about, yes, you're saying
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: this because you've not experienced anything bad before on board
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: these types of rides. So all I can say is,
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: you know, there are plenty.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Of eyeballs now on this micro drama series. Whether you
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: like it or not, the publicity is there. Yeah, so
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: it's going to be on Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram, maybe
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: even on TikTok as well. And I just know Dewey
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: Chou is somewhere here in Singapore. She's she's lurking. She's
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: ready to do a YouTube review series. I mean the
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: one about the horseman one.
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: Bro, that killed me. Oh, I just had a major
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: sneezing fit. I'm so sorry. I feel like another sneeze
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: is coming because you only sneeze twice. Usually it's 3 times. No,
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: I thought I sneezed more than twice. You have 3 sneezes.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: You know what, I think the air has been causing
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: my sinus issues to come up again.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So I keep saying like every morning Joakim's just
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: like unfazed now. I was jogging around the CBD area
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: yesterday and you can see the haze. You can definitely
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: see it. I mean, the PSI isn't as bad as
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: what it what what it looks like, but you know
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: that it's hazy here in Singapore. In fact, um, we
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: will be giving you daily PSI related updates and as
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: of now, it's around the moderate range, so it's 70
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: to 91.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: As of 7:05 a.m., so just this is just a
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: little FYI for you because yesterday actually when I was
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: walking around the East Coast, right, I did see one
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: or two people wearing a mask. So they might have
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: like asthma issues or like other types of issues that
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: they need to protect themselves. So that's the 24 hour
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: PSI reading. So encourage your parents and grandparents if they
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: want to mask with the N95, do it. Yeah, go ahead.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: Nothing to be shy, but I think after COVID, no
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: one's shy anymore about masking, yeah, they just do it.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: OK, anyway, we digress. In a few minutes when we
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: come back, you'll be the judge of whether or not
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: we are too strict when it comes to this particular incident, OK? Now,
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: I know that the perception of Singapore is that, oh,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: they're so uptight, we're so strict, we have so much
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: restrictions and all that. In fact, um, funny enough, I
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: think it was in relation to that Pokemon event that's
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: going to happen in Singapore very soon.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: A lot of people commenting from overseas, like, you know,
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: from the US or other parts of the world, they
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: have a very standard view of Singapore and
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: Some of them are saying, wow, I can't even chew gum.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: I'm definitely not going. Like some of the comments are
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: saying that, you know, I mean, keep it clean. Yeah,
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: that's honestly the banning of gum, I actually stand by it.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: I feel like that's probably one of the best decisions ever. Um,
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: even my friends from overseas who live in America and stuff,
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: they say like, it's too late for them to ban
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: things like that now, but they wish something like that
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: was done in the past. To my friends in the US.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: Leaving comments about chewing gum. Have you seen any of
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: your New York subway stations? Dude, I stepped on gum
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: like so many times when I was in New York
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: and my sole on my shoes like ruined. Yeah, you know,
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: call me biased to our country, but we have standards
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: and we got to make sure that it's clean and
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: green because we are known to be a garden city. Yeah, I,
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: I don't, I don't disagree. I mean, I'm not being
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: defensive or what, but I actually support these things. Anyway,
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: when we come back, nothing to do with gum or whatsoever.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: We escalate it to cars, OK, this is related to cars.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: All the details next. Um, I asked you a question earlier,
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: do you think Singapore is that restrictive? And uh sometimes
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: you're like, yeah, yeah, we can be, but for good reason.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: And I feel like we have reaped certain benefits from
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: being strict. I mean, look, it annoys me as well,
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: applying for permits here and there to film or to
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: do content creation and all that, but it's only because
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: we have standards, and we have to make sure that
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: we keep ourselves safe and also clean and green. And
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: these standards are applied across the board, I feel, no
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: matter who you are.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: So taking you to um this American influencer's feed right now,
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: he has about maybe close to 400,000 followers thereabouts, and
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: he made his name by um actually driving through different countries.
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: So he's, he's doing a whole journey where he only
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: drives across like the globe, OK?
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: So now he's onto his Asia leg at this point
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: and um he's basically got a very, I, I would
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: say um well-known and recognizable muscle car right now. And
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: when I say muscle car, I mean like an American
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: muscle car. You know what that is, right? Like a
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: muscle car?
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: Simple English, please. Like a classic American car that's very powerful.
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: You don't know what a muscle car is? Do I? OK,
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: never mind. I don't really pay attention to cars. OK, um,
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: so he modified it naturally because he's journeying across the
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: globe in, in this car, right? So in his car,
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: he's actually modified it with
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: a stove, for example, a cooking stove, a hammock installation,
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: a water faucet at the back. I mean, these things
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: and these modifications can be quite common in other countries.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: Like I even see, um, there's a girl that I
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: follow quite closely who I think is Taiwanese. She modified her,
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: her EV to make it like um
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: Like a caravan almost, and it's actually very creative and
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: really cool. It's just that they have more of a
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: culture there to do that because, you know, camping, maybe
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: their country is really big like in the US you
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: can just drive up to a campsite and stop there, right? Yeah, yeah,
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: I hope so. I mean, that being said, Singapore has
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: a very strict view on modifications of your car. I'm
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: not even talking about a stove on.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: A roof or a hammock at the back. It's even
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: things like you can't have blackout, uh, windows, for example,
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: that's already against the law, um, for your, you know,
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: even your number plate, it is non-negotiable. You cannot go
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: and do all sorts of funny patterns or like, name
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: it something else, you know, it's very strict. So he's
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: attempted to drive this into Singapore and he's been denied
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: about two times already, OK.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: Um, because of his modifications and it just doesn't meet
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: the requirements. And it's, right? It's an American car. So
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: it's a left-hand drive. Yeah, it's what I'm assuming definitely
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: is a left-hand drive. So, he's denied entry here, um,
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: and he's taken to social media to say like, we
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: are even more strict than North Korea. Hello to this
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: American bro, you go. Go.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: So here's the thing, he's already, he began in Europe.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: He drove through to Europe, and he's driven towards Asia
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: and he's now currently stopped, if I'm not wrong, in
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: Malaysia right now. Yeah, Southeast Asia Malaysia. That's what I understand.
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: So from what I get from this story, he was
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: trying to appeal in Malaysia.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: So please correct me if I'm wrong. Yeah. Wow. So
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: that means he's driven in Malaysia when they use the
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: right-hand drives, but he's left-hand drive. So I, I don't
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: know how that works, to be honest. Like how does
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: that work when people do that? Yeah, I mean, when
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: you talk about left-hand drives in the most recent event
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: here in Singapore with Adidas and Frederic Vesty, right? You know,
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: the Mercedes AMG car that he used to drive baby
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: monster around, left-hand drive. Yeah, so you need, you need
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: special permits.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: For this, for the whole of Orchard Road for them
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: to do the activation. Yeah, I don't think they will
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: just let anyone on the left-hand drive drive here in Singapore.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: You need to have a really good reason for it,
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: I would say. I mean, I'm sure it's happened before.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: I don't know if it's for like, you know, in,
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: in what setting, but I'm sure it's happened before. But
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: this one, I don't think they're going to permit him lah.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: I know it's just words of anger and words of
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: frustration like, hey, how come I can do it here
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: but I can't do it there.
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: rules. Well, so far, Singapore has been the only country
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: to deny him and if he does make it through
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: after appealing for the 3rd time, he tried to strip
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: his modifications. If he does make it through, it will
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: be his 30th country on this, OK, which is pretty cool.
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: Let's see what happens. We wish him all the best.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: If not, you know what, the car somewhere safe, come
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: visit us, and then you have to go back to
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: Malaysia to get your car, I think. I mean, it's. Yeah, exactly.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: Why not, right?
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: Safe to say, after yesterday, I'm pretty sure one of
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: the top Google searches here in Singapore, chemical castration. Castration, castration, sorry, yes, right. See,
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: I don't say that word so often, I'm saying it wrong. Honestly,
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: there's no reason for us to ever be saying that. OK,
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: so long story short, what is chemical castration? Yeah. Thank
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: you very much. 7:41 a.m. by the way.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: Just putting it out there. So it's supposed to block
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: sex hormone productions and lower your sex drive, but according
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: to senior minister Kay Shanmugam, I mean, even though Singapore
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: is open to it, the evidence is inconclusive on whether
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: will it deter crime and reoffending for trigger warning, sex offenders. Yeah, yeah. Well, um,
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: you know, the interesting thing is I
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: I feel like them by them just putting this piece
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: of news out, it is already meant to be a
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: deterrence in a way. It shivers down your spine. Yeah,
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: I mean, look, I clenched.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: My face
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: I mean, this is in response to a lot of
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: questions asking like how can we deter sex offenders from
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: reoffending and also whether would there be a public sex
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: offender registry to which the full details can be found
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: from our friends over at CNA. But, but I thought, yeah, I,
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: I kind of agree that the fact that these two
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: words are.
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: Now in the press and being circulated on social media. It's,
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: it's to deter people. It might make people think twice
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: for sure. And I think it's also no coincidence, right,
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: because it comes on the back of a lot of
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: strange incidents happening here in Singapore, I don't know whether
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: it's a combination of because now we are more.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: Alerts when it comes to these things and it gets
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: reported more than like, for example, 20 years ago, you know,
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: and it spreads faster on social media. So please stay
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: vigilant and stay safe. Yeah, especially, you know, if you're
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: sometimes you're just tired, you're not aware of your surroundings,
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: maybe you go back late at night, yeah, just.
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: Safe my friends. And if Singapore ever adopts chemical castration,
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: I think we'll all find out on CNA. I think
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: it's enough to, you know, enough times that you said
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: I'm done. I'm done. OK. Well, remember during our show today,
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: we do have two experiences coming your way, and one
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: of it actually is to bring out your inner child
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: and your energy, expend all your energy.
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: No, honestly, I feel like as adults, right, we don't
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: let ourselves have enough fun, you know, like at a
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: water park or like a ball pit or jumping around
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: an obstacle course kind of thing. It takes a while
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: for us to warm up to the environment before we
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: really unleash the inner child, but for 987, we want
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: you to come out and play, especially.
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: You're 18 and above, 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. at
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: Super Park Singapore, 25th of September. Yeah, it's gonna be
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: so much fun and some of your favorite 987 DJs
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: will be there as well. I don't remember the last
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: time I did like that kind of obstacle course. I mean,
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: Super Park is a bit of an obstacle course, right?
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: A little bit, yeah. I, I remember going there once like.
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: I can't remember what it was for. I, I have
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: a feeling it was for some event also, and honestly,
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: I was quite surprised at how difficult some of the
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: obstacles were. Yes, yeah, so uh.
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: I think you'll see a lot of potential gymnasts at
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: some of these places. So you can head on over
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: to 987's Instagram to win invites or you can stay
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: tuned to us at just past 9 a.m. We'll qualify
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: one lucky winner who can bring friends along with you.
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and right after 8, we've got that Japanese dining
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: experience coming your way. So stand by for that. Time
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: to talk about pay. I am at the age now
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: where politics here in Singapore matters to me. Oh yeah,
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: and one clear sign is I went for a run yesterday.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: I was plugged in. Guess what I was listening to? Um,
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: something about local politics or the full 45 minute speech
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: of Prime Minister Lawrence Wong explaining why they're going to
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: bring up the ministerial salaries and pay. Were you listening
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: to 1.2?
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: 1.5 speed at least normal normal speed. I mean my
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: run was 1 hour, his was 45 minutes, so I
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: had to listen to it. And OK, the full chart
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: on how much is going up by is available for
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: you on all our news websites, but
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: Yes, I know there'll be online sentiment going wow, so much,
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: but parts of his speech I actually agree with. It's
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: the part where he says, we want the best people
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: to lead Singapore and if I have to in a
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: way poach them over from the private sector.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: I want to make sure that whatever they're gonna earn
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: matches up better, yeah, exactly, but again, the main point
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: is if you want to lead this nation and be
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: an MP or a senior parliamentary secretary or minister of
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: state or even minister or one day prime minister, you
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: you you can't do it for the money, but
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: I feel the stresses that it puts you through where you,
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: every single thing you do now will be scrutinized and
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: all that and of course, if they were to bring
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: you over over from a different sector in a way
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: that has to match up to how much you're already earning.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: And not to mention, um, the hours can be very different.
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: The commitments are going to be very different too. I mean,
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: you know, you and I have hosted enough, um, or
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: been involved in enough government-related events to know that once
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: you're in the
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: Government sector, right? There's no Monday to Friday. You're only
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: working Monday to Friday. They have to be activated those weekends,
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: special occasions, you know, they have a lot of sacrifice.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: So just like any other job, for example, I mean, look,
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: if you're in Gen Z and if you're tuned in,
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: I'm very sure before applying for a job, one of
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: the top few questions in your mind is how much
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: is my pay? Yeah, and OK, look, uh, this is
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: just what I've been hearing on the ground, you know.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: Certain things like the expectations of starting pay has become
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: a lot different in the recent years versus like maybe
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: when we started working, for example, I don't know. I,
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: when I started working in media, I felt like, OK,
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: I can't do this for the money. I'm doing this
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: purely for passion at this point until we reach a
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: certain point where we're able to command, like, you know,
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: fees and stuff from outside, then that's different. Can I
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: ask you a hypothetical question? OK. Imagine, yeah, one day,
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: Prime Minister Lawrence Wong, he approaches you, Sonia.
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: I'm doing a very bad impersonation here. Sonia, I want
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: you to serve Singapore. OK, OK, I see a bright
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: future in in in politics and parliament, thank you, thank you. Yes,
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: if you get nominated firstly, thank you. Yeah. Would you serve?
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: What what what would be like your top few questions
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: in your mind?
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: Am I, am I willing to be even more scrutinized
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: than I am now, I would say like that, that
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: is definitely a big one, it's a bit like that,
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: on that level because as a, as someone who holds
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: a title in the office, for example, in the government sector, right?
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: You are held to a certain standard. Can you imagine
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: being so careful of the people around you because you
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: never know who is someone that might be on the
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: lookout for any mistakes you make, and they post it
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: online straight away it's a lot of stress. It's a
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: lot of stress.
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: Because my personality can be quite type A in certain areas.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: If I am assigned to a certain job in that sector,
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: I don't wanna fail, you know, I wanted to do well,
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: and that's a lot of pressure. Would you dare then
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: ask our Prime Minister, OK, sir, uh, now that we've
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: discussed this part of the areas, uh, can I ask
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: how much will I be?
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: Compensated compensated or what's the word that starts with reimbursed.
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: I keep saying remuneration, remuneration, remuneration. I keep saying it wrongly.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: This is a tough word. Just say how much will
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: I be paid. It's the same thing. I ask it politely,
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: how much will I be paid? Sounds a bit rude,
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. How much are you thinking
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: of paying me? Maybe it's just a tone. How much
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: will I be paid? Sonia, based on that question, I
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: think maybe you don't better.
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: Anyway, uh, we want to open up the phone lines. 669-11987, OK. Um,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: inspired by this entire conversation that, by the way, Singapore
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: is not the only one having this convo. Other countries
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: have been quite invested in this piece of news. I mean,
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: in a way, they are looking to us as an
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: example on how leaders are paid.
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: No, but I, I think the global standpoint is a
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: lot of international people commenting saying like, well, have you
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: seen the way that Singapore has been led? I mean,
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: that is A star stuff right there. They they deserve it.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: So give us a call or a message 669-11987.
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: Is money enough to entice you into a job, and
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: every job has its challenges like we've mentioned, but is
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: money enough to keep you in a job, or do
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: you need more than that? OK, let us know. 669-11987,
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: is that all there is? Just money? That's all you need?
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: And if you're Gen Z, I definitely wanna
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: Hear from you as you take on the working world
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: very soon. Yeah, we have our own stories to contribute
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: as well, but we wanted to pose this one to you.
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: Is money enough to keep you in a job? Now,
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: in every job there's going to be these challenges. Some
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: of my friends complain about toxic bosses, teams that they
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: cannot work with, um, culture that's very bad or the
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: hours that are crazy long, but
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: Yet, I noticed because of the passion, some of my
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: friends still stay in the job. If they really love
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: what they do, they'd be like, OK, you know what,
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: all this is secondary, out of my control. I still
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: want to do this job. OK, I want to say
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: good morning to Wayne. Wayne says one simple line, Hey guys, hi,
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: how's husband not paid?
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: Hey man, uh, you get brownie points from the wife,
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: I guess. OK, I, I, I know this will sound
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: very cliche, but, you know what, I think you are
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: paid in a very different way. The joy, the smiles
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: of spending time with your kids rewarding regardless, being there
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: with them in their developmental years. I think that's something
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: money can't buy. Yeah, I mean, I did ask. It
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: was so funny because back then when I was doing
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: the Explained podcast, right, one of the topics was, uh,
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: How would you feel like as a man if your partner,
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: your wife or your girlfriend like out earns you, like,
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: will you be OK with being a house husband? So
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: then I, I called Jeremy up actually during the, the episode.
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: I think I remember. Yeah, yeah, yeah, and, and I go, hey,
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: what if one day I ask you to just be
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: a house husband, and then he was like, sign me up.
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: I'm ready. If your, if your income can cover both
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: of us, I can quit.
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: Well done, Jeremy. Not happening anytime soon. One coming in
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: from Jai Lin. You say this, I heard this quote once.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: Money can make one stay. Money cannot make one work. True.
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: That's deep. I like that. Wow.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: Which office is this, man? Have you ever looked at
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: someone and you know that they're being paid very highly
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: and you go, do you really deserve this amount you're
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: being paid? Well, there's another, I don't know why we're
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: so cheesy, but there was another I came across, um, when,
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: when I'm working, you will not know, but when I'm smoking,
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: you will know.
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean? It's a, it's a metaphor,
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: by the way. It's like a, so it means if
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: you're really doing a lot of work and you're keeping
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: your head down and you're doing good work, you don't
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: have to shout out about it. But you always notice
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: the person who's smoking, right? By the way, this is,
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: this is just a quote, OK, that I saw. If
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: you're smoking before I notice, I can smell you a
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: mile away. So yeah, it's not meant to be. I know,
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: I know. Keep the calls and texts coming in 669-119-87.
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: Again, WhatsApps over at 90050987. Yeah, in exchange, a Japanese
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: dining experience $100 could be yours. And I always chuckle
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: and sidetrack a little bit because, you know, the term
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: once in a blue moon can be heard as a
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: very local Singapore in a very local Singaporean way, but
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: everyone uses it universally as well, because I always remember
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: my mom would say things like, wow, you packed your house, wow,
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: the moon must be blue.
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: Oh we did this once in a blue moon. I mean,
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: the Singaporean way of saying in a moon, you pack
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: your room 400 or like wow, pigs can fly or something.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: I don't know all these terms, right? Anyway, welcome back.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: We're talking about pay.
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: Is a high pay enough for you to be kept
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: in a job? And this goes across all categories I
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: would say in every industry there's going to be its
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: challenges and it's difficulties. But it's money enough to keep
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: you there. On the back of Prime Minister Lawrence Wong raising.
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: I think the chart is available for you. It's been
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: 15 years by the way, since he had a review
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: that he is donating.
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: The, yeah, to charity, right? Yeah. So, I wanna say
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: good morning to your username is Tim. Hello. Hey guys,
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: money is not the be all end all. It can
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: be an idol. It can pierce us with much sorrow
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: if it fills our heart due to the temptation that
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: it brings. Look at the scammers and many other social ills.
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: The human soul deep down is a longing for purpose,
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: fulfillment and connection, not Wi Fi. These need to be
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: part of the job.
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: Then every day might feel like a holiday. Thank you.
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: I agree. I feel like I'm reading words of wisdom. Yeah,
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: thank you for sharing that. No, I have to agree
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: because I've got some friends, you know, who at this
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: stage of life, especially millennials, right, they might be going
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: through like a bit of a career change or they're
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: thinking of doing something else. One of my friends, she's
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: really good at what she does, OK, she's really good.
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: She was offered a promotion like twice, OK. They want
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: to give her a bigger role and more pay as well.
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: But after much thought, right, she actually decided to pass
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: on it twice, twice she was offered. Reason being, she's
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: already as busy, busy enough as it is, and it
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: has cost her some of her personal relationships, like, you know,
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: her own her own romantic relationships, and she just doesn't
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: want to make the same mistakes. So she decided, you know,
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: I'm just going to retain this and I'm not going
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: to accept the increase of pay. I'm just happy. I'm
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: happy here for now. And I thought that was admirable
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: because you know what you want and
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: You, yeah, you don't mind doing that. Got to stick
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: to your values and views. We've got a Hugh on
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: the line right now. Hugh, what about you? Um, no,
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: because I want to be a scientist when I grow up.
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't really go for the money. I will go
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: for like the passion because I enjoy science, like probably biology. OK,
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: but Hugh, can I ask you an honest question? What
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: is your expected starting pay in the future, even though
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: you're doing it for passion, I know, and you sound
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: pretty young right now. Yeah, maybe like 5000.
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: Starting pay. That's a good benchmark. Yeah. We hope you
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: get the job that you want in the future. And
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: and Hugh, are you with like your, your, your parents
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: or your mom or dad? I'm with my dad. Your dad? OK,
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: can we say hi to your dad right now? Hello,
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: Hugh's dad. Hello. Hi. Hi. How can we address you?
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: What's your name? My name is Kenneth. Kenneth. OK, Kenneth,
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: so have you always known that Hugh wanted to be
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: a scientist, and how do you feel about that? I'm
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: quite concerned because he always speaks his mind. He would
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: love science and I'm like, OK, maybe you need to
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: explore the world.
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: Before we decide on scientist, but I let him choose,
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: you know, he's always talked about science since he was
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: very young. Um, he's 12 now, but he always talks about, oh,
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: always wanted to be in a biofield, medical. He's interested
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: in everything, plants and, and humans. That's so cool. Is
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: he cool? Is he performing well in school for the
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: world of science? Yes, he does. He does. He does
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: get some, some good awards. So, OK, we'll see how
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: that goes. And Kenneth, do you think $5000 as a
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: base pay is realistic for you in the future? Um, maybe.
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: I think for now, I think it's basically it's a
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: good start, uh, I feel, um, generally in, in, in
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: the market. um, so yeah, but maybe not in the
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: prime minister. I don't know. I'm not in politics, but
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: definitely not tuning in. I was like, hm, politics, hm,
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: scrutiny a bit. No, I said as a parent, I
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: probably won't discourage him, you know, if, if he wants
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: politics go, but, but I'll be concerned if he's like, OK, um, politics,
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: you know, we all be scrutinized so what you eat,
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: what you talk about, and you always be known as
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: Hu's dad.
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us this morning. OK, so on the
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: back of the ministerial pay increase, just asking you, is
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: money enough to keep you somewhere at a job or
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: to poach you over somewhere else? Want to say good
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: morning to anonymous texter. Sure. Morning both. If money were
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: the main motivation, I would not have stayed in teaching
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: for 32 years.
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: Years. Honestly, in teaching, there are no real day or
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: night hours. You give what is needed whenever it is needed.
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: Ultimately teaching is a calling, and I believe politics is
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: a calling too. Both are about serving others, making a difference,
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: and staying committed to something bigger than oneself. I completely agree.
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: I completely agree. Now here's the interesting thing, right?
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: When it comes down to teaching, and I think we've
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: all seen our teachers get treated a certain way when
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: we were younger. Like sometimes, you know, the mischievous ones
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: were always, you know, I apologize. Yeah, exactly. So when,
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: when you reflect on that as an adult, you know,
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: you might tend to be, you might tend to feel
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: really sorry and you're like, why did I put my
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: teacher through this, you know, the fact that
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: They came here. They're not exactly paid the most, but
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: they still tolerate all our nonsense, and they still teach us.
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: They still impart knowledge to us at the end of
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: the day. Mhm. One more text coming in. I want
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: to say good morning to Dom. Dom says, Good morning, Sojo.
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: To me, money is everything, especially when the cost of
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: living in Singapore.
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: Singapore is really high even as a single. If you
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: want to live comfortably, perhaps maybe a basic of 2.6K
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: and above to survive. I'm still seeing local companies still
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: advertising salaries of 1.8 to 2.5 in 2026. 0, OK, that's, yeah,
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: that's tough. You know, I don't know how they're gonna
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: find people that want to work for them.
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: Keep the calls coming in over at 669-11987 or WhatsApp
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: us at 90050987. I think when you do feel young,
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: young at heart or you're actually young,
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: Go for the thing that makes you feel most alive.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: That's the time that you want to make the most choices, decisions, mistakes, whatever.
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: Make it now while you're still young. Never too late
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: for a pivot as well, I think. Yeah, yeah, exactly.
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: So inspired by the whole pay increment for our ministers
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: and even MPs as well, we thought of asking you,
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: is pay enough to keep you at a job or
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: put you over to the other side? Wanna say good
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: morning to username Little monster be a Gaga fan. Hey guys, morning.
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: At first I
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: I thought we would be happiest when we finally get
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: the job that we truly want, but in reality, getting
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: the dream job isn't always easy. Sometimes we end up
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: taking whatever job is available as long as there's money
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: coming in and we can survive. And honestly, the higher
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: the salary, the happier we sometimes feel regardless of whether
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: the job is what we originally dreamed of. It makes
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: you realize that at certain stages in life, happiness isn't
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: always about passion or having the perfect career. Sometimes it's
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: about financial.
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: Security, being able to pay the bills, helping the people
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: you love, and knowing that tomorrow will be a little
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: less difficult. People say money can buy happiness, but sometimes
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: money can buy peace of mind, security, freedom and opportunities,
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: and those things can certainly make life feel happier. I
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: could not agree more. It's a very fair view on
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: money and pay this. Very well. Thank you so much
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: for taking the time to share your opinions. I mean,
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: we always appreciate it.
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: Um, and you are absolutely right when it comes down
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: to that. Like, I mean, I've got friends who are
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: in all differing stages of life in terms of career
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: and like, you know, some are getting their own place,
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: some are single, some are married, whatever, right? And, and
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: in particular, one of my very close friends, she actually
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: decided to take a massive pay cut to take a
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: job where she doesn't need to go into the office
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: at all. So basically it's what she loves, you know,
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: it's related to some event stuff and all that, and
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: she can work from anywhere. She can even travel and work. So.
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: It's like, you know what, this is my priority. I
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: want to experience more of life. I just need to
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: like be able to pay my bills like bare minimum.
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: The rest can come later. I was like, OK. Can I,
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: can I put us on the spot here, OK, for example, ah, only, OK.
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: Somebody offers to poach us over, OK.
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: It has happened before.
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: I will say it, but you know, not, not by the, yeah,
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: not what you're thinking, what you're thinking. And so if
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: they ask you, OK, Sonia and Joakim, how much are
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: the both of you expecting? The both of us are
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: like collectively, like I mean, of course a separate paychecks,
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: but what's the, uh, pay increment that you will accept
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: for them to poach you over? I think it's very
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: hard to answer this because
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: In our industry, right, different companies and different managements can
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: mean the world, a world of difference. So I don't
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: think I can give you an answer on air. I
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: could not give you an answer. Like would you, would
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: you have a figure in mind? 1.8 to 2.2 times.
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: Like that only, then you go the other side already.
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: OK lah.
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: Quite cheaper, OK.
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: Annan is on the line. What about you? What do
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: you think?
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: So initially, I mean, I'm, I'm, I just started working
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: like 4 years ago, but when I started working, I
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: thought was enough, so I took a higher paying job
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: and then, um, 3 years, 2.5 years, 3 years into it,
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: I started thinking like is really enough. I started
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: Losing motivation. I took more leave. I, I just didn't
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: want to go to work. I wanted to work from
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: home more and all. So then after that I started
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: looking out for jobs and then I got found a
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: role that excited me. So I decided to try for
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: it and then I had to take uh quite a
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: big pay cut, la, more than 1000 to 2,0004 pay
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: cut to join the, the, yeah, to join the job,
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: but it's been about 5 months in. I thoroughly enjoyed
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: the job. I, as much as pay isn't as good,
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: but
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: I thoroughly enjoy it. I don't regret it
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: at all.
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: So doesn't feel like you don't drag your feet.
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: Yes, I don't drag my feet. It's longer hours. I
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: do shifts now, 11 hour shifts and it's longer hours,
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: lesser pay, lesser bonuses, but I still enjoy it. No
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: regrets. There you go regrets. What makes you happy, man. Hey,
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: thank you so much for sharing that. I think that
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: might have inspired some people this morning who are tuning in.
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: I hope so. I hope so. Thank you guys. You
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: have a great day. Bye bye bye.
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: You have a good day too. Bye-bye. Some interesting happenings
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: over at Bugis, and I kind of saw this video
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: as well on Facebook and I think on TikTok it's
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: kind of circulating right now where, OK, disclaimer, this could
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: also be pertaining to mental health and how important it
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: is to look out for each other.
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: Uh, there was a lady who was causing a bit
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: of disturbance to the restaurants and even people who were
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: driving over at Liang Sia Street, and apparently she calls
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: herself God. Oh dear.
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: What did she do? One restaurant staff told the press,
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: we heard her exclaiming at one point, The sun is out.
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: I'm God, and the camera footage is being circulated now
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: is her actually stopping a car. And after a while
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: she rests on the bonnet of the camcorder of the car.
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: There you go. What? Why did she go to all
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: these restaurants though? She ate there or what? Because I
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: think that she
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: It was reported that she did mostly pay for her food,
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: to be fair, except for one instance where she ate
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: a little bit, then she asked the restaurant to cook
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: it again. Oh, she didn't pay. OK. So the staff realized, OK,
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: maybe this lady is a little bit mentally unsound. I know.
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: So they called the police. So there were some people
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: who actually said they've encountered her before and
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: I think she startled quite a lot of customers with
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: her erratic behavior prior. So most importantly, if you are
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: driving here in Singapore, if things were to happen to you,
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: please be extra observant on the road. And again, it
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: doesn't hurt to have a camcorder installed in your car. Actually,
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: I think every car has it now. OK, it's meant
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: to be like a standard practice. You should have it
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: for sure.
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: If you know of this, please educate me. You know,
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: all your get go in your rental cars. Does it
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: come with a camcorder as well? I'm not sure but
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: there we go. But I feel like they should because
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: even now when you, for example, you trade in your
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: car or you like get a new car, typically the
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: dealership can help you sort out the
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: The the dashboard camera. OK, I just, uh, researched this.
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: Apparently get cars come equipped with a built-in camera. They
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: have to, but they do not feature a portable camcorder. Oh, OK,
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: sorry to take outside the vehicle. So they take, they
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: take outwards. They don't take it inwards. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: there we go. OK, oops, my bad.
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: Dash cam dash cam. Dash cam is facing outwards. Very
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: soon we're counting down to a new thing that we're
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: doing here at 987. Come out and play over at
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: Super Park. This is gonna kick off, I'm sure many
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: more to come. We should play the Offspring song from
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: a long time ago. Come out and play. Wow, I
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: actually don't know that song. Oh, it's a classic. OK,
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: I need to go search it up then. I'll search
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: it up. It's happening over at Super Park Singapore, 25th

  Speaker 1: be up for grabs. I mean with every 987 event,

• 45:24
  Speaker 1: It is time for some bittersweet food news. I feel
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: that this segment is getting a little bit bipolar now.
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: Sometimes happy, sometimes sad. Here we go. That's life.
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: 123, food news, news. Sonia with sad news. Give it
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: to us. What else is closing this time, this one
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: might be um might hold quite a lot of memories
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: for us because it's not only been around for 18 years,
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: it has been in different, I mean, it's been in
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: areas where we would find a lot of like students
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: or even like young adults dining there. So like your
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: heartland malls in a way, some, some of them.
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: OK. You know, Soo Yummy. Oh yeah, they got one
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: over at Kallang Wave Mall. Yes, you're right. They're closing
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: their final outlet after 18 years, and you're right, it's
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: the Kallang Wave Mall 10, that's outlet. Yeah, final. I
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: think they used to have a lot more, you know,
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: for sure. Um, so it was a homegrown Korean restaurant chain.
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: They popularized army still here in Singapore. I think this
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: was before like Tanjong Paga became like Little Korea, you know. This,
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: they existed before Tanjong Paga even became so flourishing with.
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: Korean restaurants. They've been around for 18 years, roughly around
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: that same period. OK. Yeah, but you know, they, they were,
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: I think one of the first few that brought like
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: commercialized Korean dishes to Singapore, I, I would assume, OK.
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, not, not considering those stand-alone, um, homegrown brands.
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: I mean, some of them like are so legit, right,
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: opened by real Korean people who come here and they cook,
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: but this one's like a more commercialized chain, you know.
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: So, unfortunately, closing its last remaining outlets, 2 22nd of
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: October is the last day. Um, and they previously had
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: outlets at locations like uh Bugis Plus, they had Ion Orchard,
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: I think Marina Square, they had one as well, and
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: they also had a pizza chain called Pizza Maru here
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: in Singapore.
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: So yeah, they're both under the same group. Did they
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: say why they're closing? Um, they just said, you know what, um,
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: it's been 18 great years. They just decided it's a
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: good time to sunset the brand. That's it.
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: That's all they said. Not much other, you know, reason, um,
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: but I think they want to focus their efforts on
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: growing other brands and concepts under the same group. So
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't worry too much. I don't think it's because
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: they were doing badly or anything. Maybe it's just been
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: a long time and they feel like, oh, our leases
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: are expiring, maybe it's time to pursue something else. Well,
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: the person that wrote the sunset.
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: I mean your heartstrings. That's what, that's what people say
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: when it's, you know, your time is up or like, yeah,
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: kind of thing, right? So, hey, all the best. Thank
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: you for the memories. And if you would like to
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: enjoy your last meal over there before they shut, actually
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: they're offering 18% of their army stew to commemorate 18
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: years of being here in Singapore. A very exciting news
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: is that we'll be catching Khalid.
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: Well, not just live in concert as we're very excited
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: about already, but we will get to chat with him
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: tomorrow morning. By the way, the concert is happening November
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: 24th at the Star Theater. Beautiful and hopefully as we
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: count down towards November 987, we might have a few
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: pairs of extra tickets for you to be there. And
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: you know, he's the kind of dude that I just.
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: I want to chill out with, you know, like, hey,
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: come let's go grab a drink by the beach, you know,
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: that kind of guy. Like he gives me that vibe.
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: If it's not your first time tuned in to us,
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: then I'm very sure over the last 7 or 9
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: years that the shock circuit has been in existence, yeah,
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: you would have heard me say there's never a bad
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: song from Khalid. But there truly isn't. No, honestly, like I.
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: I feel like everything that he's released, even since he
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: was what, like 20 years old or so, has been
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: on point. Although he has definitely evolved and changed as
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: an artist. I'm curious to find out how now that
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: he's going to enter his like 30s era very soon.
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: And I feel like a lot of younger musicians in Singapore,
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: they loved. Oh, yes, yes, for sure. Is it an
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: easy to sing?
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: I don't think so, you know. It's OK. It's very
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: hard to capture that same laid back vibe he has
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: in his vocals. If you're on stage, you want to
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: have that stage presence, right? But do you have the
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: courage to just sit down, play the guitar, and sing
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: it the way he does? That's the thing. So I
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: haven't actually caught Khaled before. Is he gonna modify it
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: for the stage or how? Like, you know, I mean,
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: I don't mind just sitting back with.
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: Snacks and chilling out. I only hope he keeps the
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: original versions of all the popular songs that we play
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: here on 987 Young, Dumb and Broke. There is a
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: Trigger if you play Death Stranding featuring Major Lazer and
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: of course my personal favorite, Satellite. Oh yeah, so we
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: can't wait to chat with him come tomorrow morning. We'll
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: keep you updated with that. Meantime, we're going to hand
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: you over to Nick and we will catch you tomorrow
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: at 6 a.m.
