Ho Say - Iphone App - Singlish & Slangs

Ho Say, is a crash course on slangs, singlish and terms which are found in Singapore. The app has definitions and "teachers" to teach you the correct way to pronounce the terms. As this app increases in popularity it will probably cause the Speak Good English Campaign Committee Members and English Teachers a huge headache. But I am sure it will bring great joy to our forefathers that those Singlish terms that they have created, will not be lost in our society!

Cambodia: Siem Reap - Street Food

One advice, skip the fanciful restaurants along pub street & skip the roadside stalls opposite Molly Malone. Instead go for street food loaded with salt, msg, germs and dirt sold by vendors with pushcarts along the road side. Yummy! However don't expect the food to come cheap, we paid $0.75 usd for this plate of noodles!

Cambodia: Siem Reap - Quad Bike Riding

Here is a highly recommended activity, even if you are on a shoe string budget - Quad Bike Riding! Being Quad Bike amateurs we opted for the easiest route - a 17km stretch. The route consisted of dirt tracks which was fairly smooth aside from the occasional pot holes! With our bikes we travelled through the country side, past padi fields and even sped down the highway. It was an Adrenaline Rushing affair speeding down the highway, with the roaring of the engine and the wind sweeping our skin! Do try it if you have the time. If you do not want to be sun burnt and resemble a "lobster", please try to wear jeans and a shirt with sleeves.

Cambodia: Siem Reap - Bak Heng Mountain

Watching the sunset is equally beautiful as watching the sunrise and the perfect spot to catch the sunset is on the top of Bak Heng mountain. One piece of advice: Bak Heng mountain is not just a spot to catch the sunset but also a spot for perverts! So ladies do not wear short skirts or dresses to climb the structure.
