Straitstimes and Candy Empire..
-
Look at the picture and the caption.
I did not know Candy Empire need to be so creative to use that as a sign.
-
STI always like that one... once they had a bloody shot of Southern Thai violence on an unrelated article....
-

-
Man! i don't believe some of you don't get it.
But I think this thread is borderline case lah....
might be locked because it is related to another thread.
might not be locked because i am not discussing what the other thread is. -

right click the image, click on "View Image" (FireFox), then you will see the full picture.
It just means the resolution on your screen ain't big enough.
as for the pink car... don't you get it? -
THe boycotting and the pranks call are idea for sgforums leh.

Put that number at sggirls forum and say its someone looking for ONS. -
Anyway, if I'm not wrong, that picture is taken at Stirling Road, opposite MDIS Unicampus. And the car kenna entangled in the fence of a Muslim mosque.
-
lol should be in joke forum actually. lol candy empire "put up" red car as sign
-
Hmmm PR blunder. At least they admitted to it...
-
I think since they already know their mistake already, then we should just stop the nasty comments/prank calls to them
-
notice that they said that its a pr blunder not that they were wrong to do that......Originally posted by mhcampboy:Hmmm PR blunder. At least they admitted to it... -
that's so typically Singaporean. No guts to change the substance, only the window-dressing.Originally posted by hisoka:notice that they said that its a pr blunder not that they were wrong to do that......
I've said it time and time again, most Singaporeans are selfish brutes. -
Can someone please post the entire article? I cannot believe someone can be as inept as Mr Abdullah and make General Manager! He makes blunder after blunder and, worse, he keeps speaking to the press even after it is incontrovertibly and unambiguously clear that he is utterly useless at PR!
For focks sake man. Its Commonsense! Stop talking with your ego!
Can someone 'in the know' (eg ex shop employee or someone in the business) please enlighten me? Is Mr Abdullah the owner of the shop? Or is he related to the owner or?
And why did he remove the sign? If people are taking pictures of it, then perhaps, you know, POST A CONTRITE AND SINCERE APOLOGY AND MAKE USE OF THE FREE PUBLICITY YOU IDIOT!
Bloody straw-headed cunt i tell you. I think people like him should come with a health warning - "CAUTION/AWAS/ACHTUNG - People like me will raise your blood pressure" -
Some quick digging suggests that he is heavily involved in the parent company "K. A. Zareena". He has been cited as, inter alia, 'duty-free manager' and 'travel retail consultant/director'. I think therefore, that he probably owns a share of the parent company.

hey, u ppl here no read the paper one izzit.
if u tink his statements in dis article take the cake, den obviously u've not seen his apology letter.
his last sentence write wat u knw.
i canot rem exactly lah. but the meaning was sumtin liddis...
"we're sori if anyone feels offended by our sign."
i was tinkin wtf, shudnt it at least be "we're sori if our sign has offended anyone."!!! -
well, since you've got the paper, could you please take a picture/scan the other half of the article in?*
Only after you've obtained permission from the relevant parties of course. "copyright infringement is not big and its not clever and I do not encourage or authorize it!" -
me ah?
dun make me troublesum can anot.
the paper layout not the same.
top n bottom, kerrect pic.
article here oly left out half-sentence.
"more importantly, everyone is welcome at our store now.". -
Ah - thanks. My assesement of him doesn't change then. Inept and should be kept behind the scenes/ should be limited to speaking about the business side of things.
-
Good. They are reading the forums.

'We said things which you wouldn't have liked to hear, and we're sorry for that.'
Greater sincerity would entail saying:
'What we did was wrong, and we're sorry for that.'
So my boycott of the place stays. -
