Met Dick Lee in my most incredible Annual General Meeting

This is my most interesting AGM, what do you a think about, having a AGM in a dimly lit bar/club Movida. The type of setting where we could barely seen each other.

Possibly the first in the world?

Saw a friend who has many years experiences in the market, who regularly went to AGM, he lost his way finding the meeting. Directed him there. 

My friend is the only person who asked questions, Dennis Foo answered him. http://events.insing.com/feature/dennis-foo-voice-of-experience/id-c86e0000

Geylang is famous for its delicious food and sleazes.

There many hardware shops.

Huge varieties of shops cater from different needs.

With recent huge influx of tourists to the Integrated Resorts.

Many buildings were torn down to make way for condos or private apartments. There are 44 condo slated for completed soon. It could be the 2nd grade Orchard Road with so many condo being built.

Savvy investors find the area value for money. With high rental yields.

The area is relatively cheap compare to other area. With the expectation of more tourists coming to the sport hub and the integrated resorts nearby.

There were many construction activities around it.

A new sports hub $2 billion is in construction nearby to be completed by 2014.

With new hotels and mass developments announced. Many shops are upgrading and renovating.

Many interior design companies set up shops in the area.

Everyday there were new signboards replaced and shops were upgraded and renovated in the area.

Could Geylang transform into the next big thing, maybe in term of drawing of tourists.

Amazing hawker who fried kway teow(noodles) for 42 years in the same place

Recently I went to see this hawker, is he still around.

This man fried noodle at his stall for 42 years since the food stalls centre started at 1965.

Everyday without fail, he would stand there from morning fried the noodle (Fried Kway Teow) till night.

From dark hair, he fried the kway teow until his hair turned white.

His dedication to his trade is unbelievable

I heard that his wife was sick he got to take care of his wife.

His son told me his father had retired. So his children took over. His father occasionally came to take a look.

Will his children able do it for another 42 years?

Photo at top second is his son which I asked about his father.

Photo is the canal beside the food stall, which brought back many interesting memories.
