  Pick only Chinese dress nice nice visiting, so can get ang pow? The rest transparent, poolman style. Better than $1 surcharge???

  My previous experience .... last one at 2008 .

  I started at 5pm .... Zoo need to call for a cab .

  Street all quiet . Makan ma .

  Orchard need taxis , cos Chinese cabby all go back makan liao .

  Those Melayu and Indian cabbies laughing all the way to the bank .

  All the way bookings for them .

  Some chinese cabbies makan afternoon , most evening , most started off at 6pm . When the Surcharge start .

  Orchard need taxis badly .

  That was on a weekday, not sure about weekend .

  Or it's more like a typical quiet Saturday ?

  Lunar New Year Eve most shopping centres closed at 6pm or most 7pm .

  CNY is all about Day shift .... drive until no time to urine and shit , and eat !!

  Worst is eat , so expensive , $1 up .

  Kopi $0.20 up .

  So hard to find a decent food store .

  Night shift , only sub those leftovers by Day shifts .

  I advise those OMOs , pls if can , focus on Day shifts for the 3 days .

  Can forget about night .

  If i am OMO .....

  I will start 9am .... chiong all the way until 12am , for 3 consecutive days !!!

  Then relax after CNY .

  Believe me !!!

  Hi Poolman & Komade! This is my first time driving CNY, so want to ask for Ur opinion what time do U suggest we drive for CNY Eve. CNY Eve drive day better or chiong Night? Or Day & Night also tang?

  U mentioned Shopping centres & pubs all closed or quiet during CNY, U think "Bing Hai Wan" will have alot of ppl? Or after 1am there also quiet?  

  Thanks in advance for Ur advice!
