FREE WIFI CONNECTION in Singapore MRT Stations in Mid 2014!


Yes, starting from the mid-2014, you get to enjoy free Wi-Fi connection across 28 MRT stations across Singapore. The trial is implemented by the Land Transport Authority (LTA) as part of the Land Transport Master Plan initiatives to provide better service on the public transport network. I'm so happy they are doing this.

Wireless@SG will be introduced at the platforms of all North East Line stations and 12 other stations with high commuter usage.The 12 major stations are Jurong East, Raffles Place, City Hall, Dhoby Ghaut, Bishan, Serangoon, Buona Vista, Outram Park, Paya Lebar, Orchard, Choa Chu Kang and HarbourFront. LTA said the trial is aimed at enhancing wireless connectivity for commuters while they wait for the trains.
Wireless@SG is a wireless broadband initiative by the Infocomm Authority of Singapore that aims to extend broadband access beyond homes, schools and offices to public places. Users can enjoy free and seamless wireless broadband access with speeds of up to 2mbps.

LTA said tenders for the implementation of the Wireless@SG trial will be called and the service will be progressively available from mid-2014. LTA added that it will monitor the trial for two years before deciding if the service will be extended to other MRT stations.

Well this is the 1st good thing to know in 2014! Looking foward for more to come!

Aside from that, i was starting to feel a little more anxious that i should and a huge part of it was because i invited my mother to be part of the audience and i wanted the event to be memorable for her. But i guess everything was worth it in the end.  2) What was the prep process like? From the auditions all the way to the Grand Finals, i knew i had to step up as prior to the audition, i let myself go quite abit because of the fact that i was juggling between work and handling my 3 children. But i guess after the audition. i made a clear intent to give 100% to get ready for the grand finals and since then, i made more conscious de...

To be honest, it was when i saw my friend Stanley give the most touching proposal on coronation night. It really made me tear up seeing how emotional he got while on his knee 2) What was the prep process like? The prep process was pretty vigorous nearing towards the end, as there were many events to go for and practices to attend.
