Wolf Bargain( “Funlidays”)

-




As we approach the week long March school holiday, What do you do to keep your kids occupied? Travel? Not enough time. Enrichment class? Expensive. How about Library and Museum? They are free and educational.

There are a couple of new attractions to keep the kids engaged. Both the Keppel Centre for Art Education at the National Gallery and the Central Public Library went through their respective revamps recently. It offers the visitors a different experience from the former. 

Keppel Centre for Art Education(KCAE)@National Gallery 

Housed in the National Gallery Singapore, KCAE is a dedicated space for children as young as 3 years old. KCAE had a recent revamp to keep the little ones interested. The new space is more interactive than the former with touch screens and 3D painting incorporated into the space. I personally enjoyed the 3D painting more than my son. There are drop in activities within the centre for kids to do a bit of art and craft. The National Gallery Singapore is highly recommended for its inclusive exhibitions where everyone from the age of 3 to 80 years old has something to do.

Central Public Library

The Library was closed for 2 years before its reopening a couple of months back. The opening has been highly anticipated by myself as I am a regular user of the library for my investment research. The new library located on Basement 1 has been transformed into a modern and welcome environment. One could drown yourself in the world of books with many new titles. There is a child-oriented area in collaboration with S.E.A Aquarium Resort World Sentosa Singapore. The marine life theme adds colours and interesting facts about sea creatures. The space makes a great place to enjoy some parent-children bonding. The library creates a conducive environment for cultivating reading habits. There is a substantial increase in hot desks for people needing to catch up on work, charging ports are aplenty for those needing to power up their laptop and mobile device. I had a good look at the business books section, new titles were added. One could get books on cryptocurrency, the stock market, alternative investments and even AI. I find myself spending more time in the library. Both places provide a good alternative to the usual shopping malls and ticketed places of interest. Happy School Holiday!

  (Image credit The Star Media) (Swamp of people going into Shenzhen) Bye Singapore! Hi Malaysia, 2026 This write-up was inspired by a video posted on YouTube. The video talks about Hong Kong hollowing out by Shenzhen. The recent phenomenon of Hong Kongers going to Shenzhen to play, eat and stay is gathering pace with close to 2 millions making the crossing to Shenzhen during the recent Easter Holiday. That is close to 30% of the current HK population leaving for Shenzhen. With deflation taking root in China, things are much cheaper in Shenzhen. The poor economy in HK is another push factor with Hong Kongers trading down their consumption. One traveller from HK mentions his spending in the mainland only cost him 1/3 of the usual price he paid in Hong Kong. Hong Kongers are shopping at Sam’s Club in Shenzhen buying everything from groceries to electronics. The commentator interviewed restaurants and shop owners in HK, most experienced a 30% drop in sales during the holiday.  *The video

  (Credit: Yahoo Finance; Last index high of 3900 in 2007, 16 years and counting. Lost decade of Singapore Market) I spent two nights thinking about this write up since it is a subject close to my heart. The passion and concern I had for our stock market are real. I hope SGX can see my commentary in a positive light. It is about solving problem that matters, no witch-hunting was intended. During my last monthly update. I am critical about SGX for not doing enough to promote the vibrancy of our stock market. After the blog, I have been getting more SGX senior executives looking at my LinkedIn profile. I hope people at SGX can see it as constructive criticism. I want to make my point of view clear before anyone get an impression that I am grinding my axe on our stock market. I love Singapore market, I am also a bull on Singaporean companies. How could I not love our stock market where I allocate most of my investment? The declining interest in our stock market did not happen overnight, i

Without knowing a word of French or local culture, she embarked on a difficult journey of communicating with her colleagues and clients, in which it resulted in miscommunication and her being the butt of the joke. Emily assumed everyone in Paris could or wanted to communicate in English. She was forced to learn the language in class so as to communicate well with her colleagues and clients. It is important to understand the language of choice in the area one operates so as to be able to communicate effectively i
