on xiaxue's entry on ny eve

yes... i read xiaxue's blog too... but her entry on the war zone at orchard rd makes me feel how 'safe' singapore is sometimes, there's no one to control the situation when there suppose to be neccessary. and its already not the 1st time... where are they?

hence, it prompts my comment on her blog:

everytime i am over orchard rd during xmas eve or ny eve, i always have 1 very big question - where is the police?
i am rather fortunate not in orchard rd this holiday, instead, i am over tsim sha tsui & mongkok(hong kong, which is). u expect more hovac and messy hk will be rite? nope... i actually feel more safe there. y? because there are so many policemen/women around, 2 pair of them every few meters, patrol van with police on top to monitor the situation every 200m. the main roads are closed to facilitate movement of human traffic... i can assure u there r 10 times (at least) more ppl over the area than our tiny orchard rd, but man, wtf, i feel bloody safe... maybe tats the difference in how different places dealing with this situation i suppose...
