Alpha Thanksgiving Service
12th July 2008

River of Life, Bedok Methodist Church


Indeed God is good and we should give thanks to Him in all things. Recounting how I got involved in the 1st season of Alpha in 2006 and seeing subsequent Alpha Course along the way right up to Alpha 5. God has been blessing this area of work BMC been doing.


From Alpha 1 to Alpha 5, we have seen 143 participants going thru 13weeks of Alpha Course, meeting on very Thursday night. We had dinner together followed by video show by Nicky Gumbel, after the show we break up into discussion groups, where participants are free to ask any question they have.

At this point I would like to acknowledge Pastor Joel for his guidance & leadership in nurturing and building up countless facilitators, his endless emails and SMSes to encourage the Alpha teams. And how can we forget the impact he has made on Alpha participants!

Save on your ERP fees

I was watching the night news and I got excited over this website www.oneshift.com. According to the interviewee Evan Lee, Oneshift's managing director. The website was setup 2years ago.

Recently, they introduced a new mapping service which allow drivers to plot their journey. It also lists the number of gantries they will pass through, along with their associated charges.

The mapping program was introduced in response to the growing number of ERP gantries, which will see the total number of gantries hitting 65 by this Monday.

I believed this is good news to many drivers, at least you get to check on the possible charges you might incurred or at least try a different route to get to your destination.

30cents Diesel surcharge from 17 July 2008

Wah..Buay tahan liao la! everything is going northward!!

Come 17 July, ComfortDelGro, Singapore’s largest taxi group is imposing a 30 cents surcharge to help its Cabbies to cope with increases in diesel costs.

Help? Hello!! What up your idea man! Comfort is subsidising the cost of diesel to its Cabbies at $1.19 cents per liter of diesel. I remember not too long ago, there was and increment in the taxi fare. An now another 30cents surcharge?

I can easily effort the 30 cents surcharge. But if the commuters allow this to happen, will it set a precedent for the taxi companies to do likewise when there is another fuel hikes?

In my conclusion... I am against it! It will set a very bad precedent! Su ka Su ka(anyhow) increase price one ah?
