Archive for March, 2009
Location: Suntec City Convention Centre
Halls Taken: 3 Halls by Food Fair and WHOLE of Level 4 and 6 by IT SHOW.
Crowd and Control: Still ok leh, by Food Fair, and SIBEI JIA LAT, by IT SHOW despite more halls than Food Fair.
Organiser? …It’s the same. Some company named after the Eastern.
Compare the crowd! Left being the Food Fair, Right being IT SHOW
Crowd situation is not as bad...
SIBEI JIA LAT Crowd. Even have to stop escalator.
Walao it’s super jia lat for IT Show. People just kept coming in and in to SPEND money. Tell me, where is recession. The people ought to think man! I didn’t spend a single cent there =X
Food Fair is being reasonably fluent in the crowd. Before bringing you how spacious Food Fair is, let’s head on first to see how pathetic the crowd and control is at the IT Show…
You’d never seen this kind of crowd in Singapore ever before. Perhaps it’s the addition to the new immigrants – er. FT I mean, or you may have your own way of describing them, like… ah tiongs and ABNN, whichever you may wanna call them.
JIA LAT Crowd 1
And perhaps the crowd is due to alot of parents bringing their infants in PRAMS, causing natural crowd because prams do take up alot of space. Some even carry their infant and still keep their prams laying on the ground! P.s: You can just keep your prams in your car!
Notice of telling consumers to come again in 1 hour's time, without telling them after an hour, it will still be as jia lat.
And perhaps is because many got their GST credits in early March and wanted to spend it because they knew the second installment of $200 will be in after the NEXT PC SHOW.
Stopped by the ushers
Crowd released to go up!
Go Go Go!
Chiong ah! Later $1 stuffs no more already!
Simply OMG…
Well, who knew the situation will be worst than the last held in Suntec. And a bad news after this bad situation, the next two shows will be held here at Suntec, too!
Welllll, again. The last show of the year will be held in EXPO.
EXPO is a good place, at least some people from the west will be lazy to come down to the eastern side to see and even buy IT related stuffs. =x
Why held in Suntec? Well I think the company has some sort of mass reserving of Suntec as their premiere locations for holding events and exhibits! Good for them but horror for consumers like us.
So enough of the crap show, let’s head on to the delicious and ever-not-changing food fair, which is held almost ever 2-3 months, with flavours you will never get tired of, but will still patronize because you know…they’re there.
Spacious than before
Super specious than before, the fair sports more tables. ALOT ALOT. But sadly, this isn’t the situation where you can still find some seats, er..the pic is taken in the early noon by the way. So you can imagine the evening crowd =O
Not as crowded as..ahem! IT show
Satay! The usuals are there
I think less younger peeps don’t like going to such oily exhibits where they can get dirtied by the food stains. Instead, I see alot of aunties and ah mas!
ME and my fried rice
The food!
In conclusion, please hold your events at EXPO next time if you do not want excessive crowds and overflowing of…FTs. 謝謝.
I uploaded the pics and haven’t had the time to organise the text. =X
Shall do it tomorrow. Till then =)
Spacious than before
Yea yea, NS is funning fast and blink! – It’s only 15 months away from ROD. It’s time to plan the future (thanks goodness yuxiang realised he HAS to plan it) and also get a better computer system for his university or future work, which is going to last him at least a 4-5 years.
Let’s see how the amount works out..quite a big amount =O Never mind, 慢慢save lor. Anyway, the above version may just be refreshed with new versions and will be cheaper.
-Macbook Pro $3878 (Why so ex one?)
-Final Cut Pro 2 $1410 (Student price)
-Logic Studio 8 $838 (Student price)
-Adobe Web Premium $99 (Yes, the price is right)
Wa…total adds up to…$6225! (^#$^&$)
Nothing is impossible. Let’s begin to save for a better tomorrow! =)
