London was 135m, world's tallest... year 2000...
China's 160m-high Star of Nanchang opened last year in southern Jiangxi province.... year 2006
Singapore Flyer is 165m... not yet operating...
Beijing Great Wheel 208m .... not yet operating...
So... I ask you... is it
"China inconsiderate... " or "Singapore inconsiderate... " ???

So China is still inconsiderate. -
but you see hor... theirs was 160m and Singapore builds one 165m... 5 meters more only you know? It is like petronas tower... put a flag pole on top and then measure to the top of the flag pole.... irritating right?Originally posted by doppleganger:China. Singapore already almost finishing.

so now Beijing fed-up and plans to build one 208m... not Singapore 165m, they build one 165.5m -

Don't worry... China may be fast in everything they do...Originally posted by doppleganger:Sorry about this, i'd apologise if i were to leave and racist comments in this forum.
Well firstly, our Motherland SINGAPORE, had a dream of making the world's largest ferris wheel called the "Singapore Flyer". It would serve as a tourist attraction and make our mark in the world for as long as possible until the next country makes a bigger wheel.
But now, just when we are near success, China does something really inconsiderate, THE GREAT WHEEL OF CHINA, AND beating us by 50metres?!
Eh hello, use some brains please? Its ok to make your wheel and satisfy yourself for owning the other wheels. But why must you STEAL my country's FAME AND GLORY when we HAVEN'T EVEN REAPED FROM OUR LABOUR?!
5 mins ago, I'd even talked to my China "friend" about this and guess what he said? - "Thats too bad."
If this is a political move, i would say it is downright dumb. Just when China and Singapore shooked hands to be friends and open their market up, China HAD to do this... WHY?!?!?
WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
but I bet you, they lack standards, & quality... besides, the Ferry Wheel they built may one day come crashing down incurring International Attention... -
Let's extend ours and make ours longer than their by 1mm.

can u not read?Originally posted by doppleganger:Point being?
andrew already said so in an earlier post that china had one that's 160m tall (star of nanchang) opened in 2006.
it's now 2007. singapore obviously started building theirs after China started with their star of nanchang.
his point (or at least that's how i read it) is that, singapore copied china's star of nanchang. and now, china is pissed and so they are building something that singapore most probably wont be able to build. at least that's what i read from what andrew has posted -
Welcome to the reality of global competition.........
China doesn't owe us anything - TS' saying that China's plan is "inconsiderate" is unwarranted. What about some Thai plan to construct the Kra canal?
That's why we have all been advised to continually upgrade ourselves and not rest on our laurels or other countries will overtake us. Watch out for Vietnam and India! -
Haiyaaa!
What China do, with China money, in China land, for China people, is China's business.
Singapore can only smile, send congratulations to China, and plan to build a bigger one. Perhaps a 210m wheel. -

dont think we will.
we must first see how well singapore flyer goes. -
World record can be very bad. Wait Singapore may come out with world highest number of ERP gantry or highest GST rate in the world. Then we know the pain.
-
no use competing in such stuff.
so wad if msia had the tallest building in the world once?
now dunnno ranked how many liao.. -
yeah on top of building, was in itOriginally posted by FireIce:taiwan oso got liao wat

The type of ranting by the TS does remind of the "hot air" and "noise" that Chinese Government makes on the international scene/UN whenever they are seemingly ignored or belittled.

I think first we can easily enter the Guiness Books of Records for the greatest number of Trafic Lights per kilometer.Originally posted by Meilin86:World record can be very bad.

I REALLY REALLY WISH that could happen.Originally posted by royston_ang:Let's extend ours and make ours longer than their by 1mm.
hahahahah... Not really... I heard London has it... SGD$80 per entryOriginally posted by Meilin86:World record can be very bad. Wait Singapore may come out with world highest number of ERP gantry or highest GST rate in the world. Then we know the pain. -
Time is important.. who cares if u had dream want to make anything but ur too slow.. ? well blame your singaporeans for too late.
-
you dunno meh? Wheel just get taller and taller. The only agreement is they cannot build too fast so that one country get the honour of highest wheel for at least a while.Originally posted by doppleganger:Sorry about this, i'd apologise if i were to leave and racist comments in this forum.

WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just like Singapore's ferris wheel is barely a few metres higher than the second highest one once it is built finished. -
I smell insecurities.
-
So? I think every country will have one
So what it is the biggest
It is no longer unique
Japan has one
London has one
Singapore has one
And I think even Malaysia has one
And god knows which cother country have one Ferris Wheel to enjoy the views
