New Possibilities with the EZ-Link Imagine American Express® Prepaid Card 
Singapore’s largest CEPAS card-issuer, EZ-Link, and American Express collaborate to deliver new benefits and rewards to young adults.

October 31st, 2012 – EZ-Link Pte Ltd, Singapore’s largest CEPAS card issuer, and American Express today announced a new card-issuing partnership in Singapore and unveiled the first product under the partnership, the EZ-Link Imagine American Express Prepaid Card (or the “Imagine Card”).

The Imagine Card is a multi-functional, contactless prepaid card that comes with two spending purses – EZ-Link’s CEPAS and American Express prepaid – and delivers ease and convenience when making purchases at all merchants who accept either EZ-Link or American Express. The Card comes with EMV Smart Chip, American Express Contactless and magstripe which allow Cardholders to dip, tap or swipe the Card to pay, depending on where they spend at. The Imagine Card perfectly complements the fun and active lifestyle of its core target young adults aged between 17 and 25 in Singapore.

The Smart Payment Choice for Young Adults
EZ-Link and American Express together developed the Imagine mobile app feature, which allows its cardholders to view the latest merchant offers, their card transactions and balances in real- time. Available on Google Play, the app empowers young adults to manage and control their finances via mobile anytime, anywhere.

The Imagine Card is the first American Express-branded, contactless prepaid card in the world, and it is the first American Express-branded product equipped with EZ-Link CEPAS functionality, giving cardholders the convenience of using it for public transit, taxis, Electronic Road Pricing (ERP), with the Electronic Parking System (EPS) and at an extensive network of merchants accepting EZ-Link in Singapore.

The Imagine Card is also the first prepaid card in the market that can be integrated with the EZ- Link Season Pass, which offers unlimited bus travel and up to four train journeys per day.


Extensive Collection of Privileges & Perks
The Imagine Card is packed with attractive privileges, discounts and perks catering to young adults, including:
  • 2% rebates on the amount spent at selected retail and dining merchants, including Bershka, Pull & Bear, Stradivarius, Royal Sporting House, Takashimaya Food Hall, Shaw Theatres, Swensen’s, Gloria Jeans, and Pasta Fresca;

  • -2% savings on international shipping with globaleshop, an online shopping delivery service, courtesy of American Express;

  • Access to over hundreds of American Express SELECTS® merchant offers worldwide exclusive to American Express Cardmembers
In addition, to encourage a heart of volunteerism, Imagine Cardholders get to enjoy 10% savings on volunteerism travel packages from Volunteering Solutions.

Introductory Offers
For a period of three months from 1 November 2012, Imagine Cardholders can purchase the EZ- Link Season Pass at an introductory price of S$97 (usual price is S$170) at TransitLink ticket offices, thereby enjoying significant cost savings for public transit comparable to that offered by student concession cards. EZ-Link will also be giving away on a weekly basis free Imagine Cards (valued at $50 each) at selected TransitLink ticket offices island-wide. The selected locations will be announced via the Imagine Facebook page (www.facebook.com/imaginecard) a day before the giveaway.

In addition, every month from now until 30 September 2013, Cardholders have a chance to win a trip for two and S$500 spending money for their holiday by charging their expenses to the Imagine Card.

Cardholders will also be invited to the JUICE 14th Anniversary ‘90s Flashback’ Party presented by the Imagine Card on Saturday, 10 November 2012, from 9 pm till 12 mn at Zouk.

There is a saying that dogs are man's best friend! And I agreed to that totally.

A pet dog will never be disappointed in you.
If you have a secret, you can always share with her and she is not going to tell anyone your secrets.
The happy feeling when they see you in the morning and get all exited.
Dogs dont care what you have done in the past, or how you smell, they will still love you.

What lengths will I go to keep my favourite pet by my side forever?
Perhaps get the best doctor to cure her if she is sick. Or maybe find a scientist who can create a solution to keep her stay alive forever. Or maybe the experiment like what Victor did in the movie can keep my favourite pet alive forever. =)

This is the movie I was talking about.

From creative genius Tim Burton ("Alice in Wonderland," The Nightmare Before Christmas") comes "Frankenweenie," a heartwarming tale about a boy and his dog. After unexpectedly losing his beloved dog Sparky, young Victor harnesses the power of science to bring his best friend back to life—with just a few minor adjustments. He tries to hide his home-sewn creation, but when Sparky gets out, Victor's fellow students, teachers and the entire town all learn that getting a new "leash on life" can be monstrous.

A stop-motion animated film, "Frankenweenie" will be filmed in black and white and rendered in 3D. The talented voice cast includes: Catherine O'Hara, Martin Short, Martin Landau, Charlie Tahan, Atticus Shaffer, Robert Capron, Conchata Ferrell and Winona Ryder.

Presented by Disney, "Frankenweenie" is directed by Tim Burton, produced by Tim Burton and Allison Abbate, from a screenplay by John August, based on an original idea by Tim Burton.


Catch Disney’s FRANKENWEENIE in cinemas this 15 November 2012 and like the Official Walt Disney Studios Singapore Facebook Page, follow the @disneystudiosSG and subscribe to Official Disney Studios Singapore YouTube Channel.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!
Recently found a great place to chill out with friends!!!

Have you been to Woody Family Cafe?
It is located at 12F Andrews Avenue Singapore 759930m Tel: 67581185.
Woody Family Cafe is not just another PUB, it is a FAMILY CAFÉ and has an unusual authentic cozy feeling once you step into the little shop with its special Fusion Peranakan Food specially concocted and cooked for its customers. Ms Jenny, the ladyboss of this place is a very friendly lady who often come up with her own recipes for different occasion. Like this time round for Halloween, she also created her own Halloween Cocktail Drinks (Valid till 31 Oct 2012).

This was my 1st time to this place and it will not be the last for sure.
Me and my friends enjoyed the ambience there. Food and music is good. You could imagine after a long day of work, sometime you just need a place like this to relax.

Ah Char is a truly authentic nyonya recipe with a history dated back to 1980’s and its flavour and taste have been historically maintained and preserved. Its’ main components are cucumbers, pineapples, carrots and green chillies while its main ingredients of spices add much of its flavour and taste to its final product.

Stout Bruised Lamb Shank Rendang (Spicy).
The piece of meat is brewed for 3-4 hours in guinness stout and lots of other secret ingredients that allow it to be this rich and gratifying. You will sure like this! Good to dip with bread.

From left: Mr Kilala Tilaar (Deputy Director of marketing &research & development, Martha Tilaar Group), myself, Hongpeng and Ms Wulan Tilaar (Vice Chairwoman, Martha Tilaar Group)

 Thanks Martha Tilaar for inviting me to their Media Gathering!
This event is also in celebration of Martha Tilaar's new store opening and new product launching in Singapore.

Congrats to Martha Tilaar, the famous Indonesian beauty product brand for their second outlet opening at Jurong Point.

To be honest, I was not familiar with Martha Tilaar until the media launch last week, and learnt that Martha Tilaar Group was founded by Dr Martha Tilaar over 42 years ago with humble beginnings as a single beauty salon. Today, the group not only manufactures, markets and distributes over 10 different successful product brands in Indonesia, it also provides training, beauty counseling and spa services. Their products are developed in Indonesia according to international standards as they are an ISO certified organization. 

Today Martha Tilaar, Asia’s best kept secret from Indonesia expands its commitment in Singapore with authentic Asian-style exotic innovations by opening a second concept store in Jurong Point, Singapore with new premium product offerings.

The media event was held at Fullerton Bay Hotel.


New Reviving Series in Dewi Sri Spa Range
Martha Tilaar unveils the brand new Reviving Series to the wildly-popular Dewi Sri Spa range. Enriched with lemon and peppermint oil to counter oily and dry skin conditions, the Reviving Series alleviates fatigue and refreshes both the body and the mind with its uplifting minty fragrance scent. Available as a Body Wash, Body Scrub, Massage Oil, Body Lotion, Bath Salt and Herbal Bath, these products are perfect for winding down after a long tiring day, or after vigorous workouts.


Guests that day were well-pampered to a hand and foot massage!











Mr Kilala Tilaar (Deputy Director of marketing &research & development, Martha Tilaar Group)

The heiress to the Martha Tilaar empire, Ms Wulan Tilaar, shared the secrets founded on Martha Tilaar’s beauty philosophy today at a celebration spa-rty. Ms Wulan Tilaar is currently the Vice Chairwoman of the Martha Tilaar group, head of the internationally-applauded Puspita Martha International Beauty School and the rapidly expanding Martha Tilaar Spa network.

Renowned as a beauty and wellness brand in Indonesia, Martha Tilaar’s success is attributed to the signature approach of marrying genuine Asian heritage, such as the use of herbal ingredients like Jamu and other plant and natural extracts with world-class scientific expertise.

This dedication to combine Eastern tradition and Western standards stems from the personal pledge of Dr Martha Tilaar herself to share the long-established Indonesian practices in a modern and relevant way. It is the cornerstone of Martha Tilaar’s approach since the brand’s inception over 42 years ago. In 1996, Martha Tilaar Group was the only cosmetic company in South East Asia to obtain ISO9001 certification.



A special dance performance which made me feel so relaxing...
