Singapore Idol – Are You Serious? (Hate Me Now)

August 28th, 2009 · 16 Comments · AngryAngMo Blog, Singapore Events, Singapore Media, Singapore Music

The last NDP firework explosion just faded away through the narrow HDB corridors, when I reached home, thirsty and sweaty from a long day, trying to escape the red-Shirts on their crusade for “One nation” through the city.

I got me an ice cold beer, jumped on my sofa and switched on the TV. *zoong* Then… I cannot remember anything. I woke up the next morning with scratch marks around my eyes and ears. What had happened?

Why You Shouldn’t Watch “Bruno” In Singapore (List Of All Cuts)

August 26th, 2009 · 5 Comments · Singapore Media

On my flight back from Europe, where I was roaming around the last 2 weeks, I was nicely seated in between a notorious Scottish gentleman who wouldn’t stop ordering whiskey and a notorious teenager who wouldn’t stop playing “Space Invaders” with full volume on. So what to do?

August 7th, 2009 · 27 Comments · AngryAngMo Blog, Singapore National Day

The following text is based on my personal “encounter” with the Singapore National Day Parade during this years first rehearsal.

Obviously I am not Singaporean, which means I am not able to share heartwarming and patriotic moments with you, like singing the National anthem with 25.000 other people, or feeling overwhelming joy about the free “Funpacks”.

Instead I can show you how a foreigner sees and feels about these 2 hours filled with interesting but weird elements, that got me and my buddy asking more then once “Why the hell would you do that!?”

5 Things You Must Bring To The Singapore National Day Parade

August 6th, 2009 · 3 Comments · Singapore National Day, Singapore Politics & Economy

It was such a stereo type picture, but there we were.
Me and my buddy (both Ang Mohs) sitting half starved, dehydrated and soaked in rain water, in between happily munching and with their “Funpack” playing Singaporeans in the middle of the huge Floating platform to watch the last minutes of the National Day rehearsal.
