Hmm.. apparently Tang Wee Sung and his brother of CK Tang fame are intending to buy back CK Tang shares at a hefty 10c premium over the closing price of 55c (and as a "bonus", if more than 90% of investors agree, they will pay 70c). This is also a large premium over the "book value" of the share. Wow. What a steal. All this just a week after he vehemently said he would never sell the orchard rd property, not likely to redevelop it, played down the value of his stake in the Orchard Road property, and gave a not-too-positive review of his own business. With all this negativity, why the sudden urge to help out small investors? *rolls eyes* How about I take out a loan and buy the the whole of CK Tang at 75c a share from Mr Tang so he has the money to do his kidney operation AND live off the cash so he doesn't have to - to quote an 'observer' - lead a stressful life at a helm of a listed company.

Damn rich people really good at trying to take small investors for a ride.

I really oughtta look at photos immediately after i take them otherwise I'd never realised there's a damn EYELASH in on my sensor sigh.. stupid digital camera bah.

So went to arab street today (among many other places.. as usual haha I'm a walking addict!!!). Ate at this place called House of Briyani at the corner of Kandahar St and North Bridge Road which apparently has 4 different kind of Briyani rice. It was quite expensive (1 portion... which i of course only ate half of ;) plus a lime juice was $7.50) but rather good, especially the 'sides' that came with it - the pickles, and 2 sourish curries.



Quite a number of interesting sights and shops around that area nowadays... definitely has changed since a couple of years ago heh. A city is very different from a place like Ithaca I guess.. nothing ever seems to change - the biggest changes are like a new restaurant, or walmart coming, or upgrading a carpark. Definitely no Integrated Resorts (let alone 2), megamalls, and the likes. Although increasing property prices seem to be a common thread *sigh*
