HIT-AND-RUN

An incident accured today during the peek hour, around 5.30 p.m. at CTE.

21 years old, gordon, and the other 18 years old, steven, was both so young and was the victim of the accident.

26 years old, Ms Jane Tan, an eye-witness and a student said, '' It all happened so fast!'', she was also sure that she saw two cars. 40 years old, Inspector Abdul Rahman said, '' There were streams of blood on the road!'', he was shocked by what was left of the motorcycle. And, 36 years old, Mdm Moliam Bte Ismail, a housewife who was one of the passenger in one of the cars said, '' All i heard was a big bang!'', she was unsure what caused the accident.

45-year-old, Policeman, Inspector Raijv Kumar said,"The blast claimed three lives." He also said that they are still investigating the cause of the explosion.

When interviewed, Inspector Rahman advised drivers to drive carefully and, not to talk on the handphone when driving.

Ms Jane, says that, '' If you are involved in an accident, the first thing you need to do is call the police. Do not attempt to move your car as this is evidence. Moving your car may result in a void claim, as supporting evidence will be lost if you are not at fault. While waiting for the police to arrive, exchange details with the other driver. Always have a notebook and a pen in the glove box of your car, you never know when you might need a piece of paper to scribble something important down! Information you will need from the other driver is - vehicle registration number, drivers name and address, insurance provider with policy number and their driving license number.''.

Dear Mr Lee
PROPOSAL FOR DEVELOPMENT OF PULAU UBIN

I, the president of green plan 2012 club, is sending in my proposal regarding the development of Pulau Ubin.
I have interviewed a number of residents and collated their views. One of the resident, Madam Chan Ah MUi (aged 45, former owner of a kiosk for bicycle rental) says that though you have a good bus service, roads and infrastructure, to make the places around more accessible, you should also need cycling tracks and nature trails.
Another resident, Mr Mohamad Ismail Bin Adam (Headman of the island, aged 74) Says that you should build a clinic and a school there as it is inconvenient for his grandchildren to take a bumboat to the mainland.
A resident, Mr chandran Mohan (aged 20, polytechnic students) considers that pulau ubin should be transformed into a 21th century New Town and can enjoy the best of both world, shopping facilities, nature at the doorsteps. A relaxed way of life.
Mrs Tan Li Lin (aged 32, housewife and part time hawker assistant) says that, there should be reliable water supplies. And she hopes to start a coffee stall as there is a lot of campers and day tripers. And good water supply is important.
Melvin koh ( aged 16, 'o' level student) says that all this will destroy the natural beauty of the island. He says that you should preserve Chak Jawa, the pride of pulau ubin, as a natural reserve.
I hope that you can develop Chek Jawa with the wishes, needs and concerns of the five residents as soon as possible. Hope to get your response soon. Thank You.

Your faithfully

Caught in a storm

Remembering a time when i was young, i was rather scared of thunders and lightnings. There was a time when big cauliflower clouds were boiling up and i seem to be wearing an ominous cap of cloud. Not long, i heard thunder boomed in the distance and after a while, the storm eased. later, down came the pouring rain.
The second storm exploded on me in a chaos of wind, water and noise. There was a earsplitting crack and the air is filled with screams, including mine. At last, i saw a blinding flash and lightning hammered down. I can smell the smell of fear at that moment of time.

natural disaster

On sunday, 9:42 a.m, a powerful eartquake, magnitude-6.9, struck KANAZAWA, japan. It killed at least one person and injuring 170 others as it toppled buildings, triggered landslides, cut power, interfered with phone service, broke water mains and snarled public transportationand and sparked a small tsunami along the coast. The tsunami was measured 6 inches and hit the shore 36 minutes later after the quake.
Later, the quake showed buildinds violently shaking for 30 seconds. Some buildinds were collapsed, windows of shops were, streets cluttered with roof tiles and roads with cracked pavement. Some said that inside their house was a mess, with everything smashed on the floor. And many was injured. Many of the injured were knocked down by the shaking or hurt by falling objects and broken galss.
And again, in october 2004, a magnitude-6.8 earthquake hit northern Japan, killing 40 people and damaging more than 6,000 homes. It was the deadliest to hit Japan since 1995, when a magnitude-7.2 quake killed 6,433 people in the western city of Kobe.

terrorism

Task: On your own personal blog, discuss your views on terrorism. How is it affecting you - are you afraid? What will you do about this matter? (150 words)
After reading these two articles, i think that, terrorism does not only affected me. It also affects my family members, friends and relatives. It affects me because, if there is terrorism, i need to be more careful when i go out. Not really safe when i am outside in public. Because, we do not really know where the terrorist is hiding and doing.
I'm afraid of terrorism because terrorism is a scary thing and terrorists are scary creatures. They are cruel, selfish and scary. Cruel in the sense that they kill innocent people when ever, where ever they want. Selfish in the sense that, they do not think about others. And scary in the sense that they do all this scary things.
Look out for the terrorist. Call police immediately if i see the terrorist. Every one need to do this so that our country would be free from the terrorists - cruel, scary and selfish creatures
