Today, is the 4th times I celebrate the birthday of Singapore as Singaporean.

On 9 August 1965, under the leadership of Mr Lee Kuan Yew Singapore withdrew from the Federation Malaysia to become and became an independent republic.

Under then PM Mr Lee, Singapore developed into one of the cleanest, safest, and most economically prosperous cities in the world.

Happy 42nd Birthday Singapore!

Here historical videos to share with you.

Not many people know Carrefour Singapore is selling books.

Currently, Carrefour is having a warehouse clearance sale at Suntec City Atrium from 03 Aug to 12 Aug. There is a small section with a large selection of books! $6 each.

We bought some books.

I bought Ubuntu Hacks: Tips & Tools for Exploring, Using, and Tuning Linux at $6, while my China colleague bought 4 Oracle books at $24. Another Malaysian colleague bought some children books. If we were to buy the same amount books from book store, that could cost us more than S$300.

Other than IT books, there are quite a lot of story book for children, novel for adult and cookbook.

Some of the books are disfigured, but you can find many in good conditions, and I think it is really worth it!

So, look out for next Carrefour promotion, OK.
