Singapore expands its size, lawfully this time

By simple measuring with Google Earth, Pedra Branca is 38.6km away from Singapore but 14.1km from Johor. Yet, Singapore successfully claimed Pedra Branca to be its land.

I am not sure how this land will benefit the fellow Singaporeans and fight with inflations, but I hope this is not another wayang show with tons of money spent just to get a morale victory.

Congratulations to Singapore! Next we want to claim Johor to be ours!

Toads gave early warning before the deadly earthquake

Hundred thousands of toads swarmed to cross the road before the deadly earthquake hit the central China. The earthquake killed more than 8,500 people in the Sichuan province of China.

This reminds me the incident at Phuket in December 2004, where the elephant ran up to a hill while tourists were still riding on it. Shortly after that, the faithful tsunami which killed hundred thousands of people took place.
