Even from Malacca back still use WoodlandsOriginally posted by the Bear:mostly if you want to go long distance up the North-South highway of Malaysia, it's better...
if you want to just go to JB, Woodlands is better

To avoid the long jam -
Jurong Island is purely doing chemical/ petrol related industriesOriginally posted by littlestream:Jurong Island ah? Yah, I saw that and was wondering what's in there? Residence or industrial?

That inverted L is now used actually, 1/2 developed... I believe it's the world's only fully automated port

Originally posted by the Bear:Brickworks is near Bukit Merah...
as for chicken rice stall, to me, the one that has the best chicken rice was in Margaret Drive.. Sin Kee Chicken..
however, the dude sold out to someone to retire... the new stall isn't very good..
the dude then could not sit still and opened another at Mei Chin Road or something like that....
GOOD chicken.. 15 years ago, they had the audacity to charge $22 a chicken.. and they moved 180 chickens on a bad day.. on a good day, they run out of chickens at around 400 chickens..
Eh, Bear........at the end of the day, I still didn't get it where has the best chicken rice leh.
How about duck rice? Last I heard it was that boneless duck at Buona *scratches head* aiyoh, si....Buona what ah? Is it Vista? Got this name or not? -

Wow!!!!! I'm speechless!!!Originally posted by the Bear:kopi did that
Okay, maybe that will give me motivation to try driving West to Vancouver and East to Nova Scotia. You know? To drive across Canada, East to West, takes TWO WEEKS!!!! -
The same docu showed the computerised system of the containers management. Really impressive!!!!Originally posted by sbst275:I know PSA was dealt with a hard knock years back

Okay, you know why need to debone? 'Cos by the time I return for a visit, maybe boh gey.
Okay, not funny. -
1 crane specialist can handle 4 shore to ship that is called quay cranes at 1 time! At the comfort in a control roomOriginally posted by littlestream:The same docu showed the computerised system of the containers management. Really impressive!!!!
But sadly, that's only P01 - P06
P07, P21 - P26, due to time constraint, it's manual system -
There was a documentary on The Discovery Channel a few months ago (part of their MegaStructures series, if memory serves) about the Port of Rotterdam.Originally posted by littlestream:But sbs............a few years ago, I watched on TV. Some docu, S'pore not the best port liao leh.
I distinctly recall it being mentioned that, in terms of the annual tonnage of freight handled, Rotterdam was ranked #1 in the world, followed by Singapore.
That documentary might have been out of date, though. -
well, if boh gey, you can still have the wonderful braised eggs
anyway, i see you are laughing at my ham-fisted attempts at flirting elsewhereOriginally posted by littlestream:Hee hee.........hahahaha.........aiyoh eh ah, you know why before I post I laugh or not? I kill myself with my own imaginations/thoughts!!!

You got this idea from Robin Williams izzit?Originally posted by the Bear:take the husband, get a RV, take a month off.. and drive!
Actually, if I have the luxury (money), I like to try the trains. It cost more than the plane. Airfare to Vancouver is about C$750. But the train ride? About C$3k. I know by the time the train hits Fatum's province, it's all flat and plains but then pass that, woohoo.........the Rocky Mountains!!! -
It's Singapore followed by Shanghai if talking abt tonnageOriginally posted by Meia Gisborn:There was a documentary on The Discovery Channel a few months ago (part of their MegaStructures series, if memory serves) about the Port of Rotterdam.

But the Top 4 container ports
1) Singapore
2) Hong Kong
3) Shanghai
4) Busan -
My golly, sbs................how on earth do you know all these?????Originally posted by sbst275:1 crane specialist can handle 4 shore to ship that is called quay cranes at 1 time! At the comfort in a control room
