I read an interesting article in the NST yesterday (1st December 2010). Apparently, some casinos in Singapore are providing free transport for Malaysians to go gamble in their casinos. Not only got free transport, got shopping voucher, got free lunch plus 40 bucks pocket money. Good offer right? And guess who are the people joining this 'free' trip. Mostly old aunties from Johor. Full article here.
See how Singapore's casino work, they fork out a bit of cash to bring these aunties in, then take their money just like that from the mahjong table. And then next week, they'll just do it again. And then these aunties will happily go on another a 'free' trip to Singapore, eat more 'free' food, get another 'free' 40 bucks then lose more money. But then, at least transport free what, so nevermind lah. See, smart ah these Singaporeans.
By the way, this reminds me of a typical karangan sentence I used all the time, see whether you remember or not:
Remaja-remaja zaman sekarang mudah terpengaruh dengan pengaruh-pengaruh negatif di sekeliling mereka...
Except now it's the aunties. Haha.
Besides, where got free things in this world. Correct or not?
