It was quite sudden and I dun really have the choice. So I hereby pronounce that I'd be unable to attend the Amazing Race(coz i'd be back in Jan09).

To AEW 5001: I'm really sorry for the late notice(not that I have the choice though)... I hope you would be able to get someone else for your group. I hope you dun mind this.

To the organiser: Sorry for the sudden pullout. I will still track the going-ons and am still able to post on the forums though(SKorea has nationwide broadband wireless).

Gd luck !!!!

You Korean? No rite? Haha.

Sorry to deviate but yah I'd try to take some of the X-Country buses(I'm taking one from Incheon Airport to Wonju). I don't think I'd be able to take the Seoul Metropolitan City buses coz I'm going to the "countryside". Oh yah thanks for the nice replies(I was expecting to get flamed for the sudden pull-out). Haha...

Back to the topic. Would there be a thread whereby groups can share their experience on the forum? It would be nice to know what difficulties and the feelings the members felt during the race. I think one member from each group would be good enough.

Tip of the day:

Remember to drink lots of water to replenish yourself during the race. There will be 60 Newater bottles provided. 52 of them are for contestants and 8 of them for officials.

NEWater

NEWater is the product from a multiple barrier water reclamation process. The first barrier is the conventional wastewater treatment process whereby the used water is treated to globally recognised standards in the Water Reclamation Plants.

The second barrier is the first stage of the NEWater production process known as Microfiltration (MF). In this process, the treated used water is passed through membranes to filter out and retained on the membrane surface suspended solids, colloidal particles, disease-causing bacteria, some viruses and protozoan cysts. The filtered water that goes through the membrane contains only dissolved salts and organic molecules.

The third barrier or the second stage of the NEWater production process is known as Reverse Osmosis (RO). In RO, a semi-permeable membrane is used. The semi-permeable membrane has very small pores which only allow very small molecules like water molecules to pass through. Consequently, undesirable contaminants such as bacteria, viruses, heavy metals, nitrate, chloride, sulphate, disinfection by-products, aromatic hydrocarbons, pesticides etc, cannot pass through the membrane. Hence, NEWater is RO water and is free from viruses and bacteria and contains very low levels of salts and organic matters.

At this stage, the water is already of a high grade water quality. The fourth barrier or third stage of the NEWater production process really acts as a further safety back-up to the RO. In this stage, ultraviolet or UV disinfection is used to ensure that all organisms are inactivated and the purity of the product water guaranteed.

With the addition of some alkaline chemicals to restore the acid-alkali or pH balance, the NEWater is now ready to be piped off to its wide range of applications.

In fact, RO is a widely recognized and established technology which has been used extensively in many other areas. This includes the production of bottled drinking water and production of ultra-clean water for the wafer fabrication and electronics industry. RO is also becoming increasingly popular as one of the technologies used in desalination of seawater for human consumption. It is also used to recycle used water to drinking water on space shuttles and on International Space Stations.

Tip of the day:

During the amazing race, do bring along a phone in case you get hurt or lost and want to contact us or your teammates. It would make life easier.
