Hi Huneybees,

The Padang, an open green field in the heart of Singapore, well known as a hosting venue for Singapore's Nation Day Parade (NDP) as well as numerous outdoor sports such as rugby, cricket and Formula 1 races, has been transformed into a party space for art lovers and their families for 3 days from 27th till 29th November.

The star of the Art Carnival belongs to a stunning display of light, sound and visuals set against the building facade of the newly transformed National Gallery Singapore. Inspired by the art within its walls, this show will run from 8pm, 9pm and 10pm for all three days.

As tonight is the last day of the Art Carnival, this show is not to be missed!

RIP Mr Lee Kuan Yew ~~~

Hi Huneybees,

Ok, this is just me and a Mr Lee Kuan Yew's wax figure.

It's sad news to be seeing this on a Monday morning. Our most beloved founding father, former prime minister, Mr Lee Kuan Yew has passed on this morning at 3.18am.

He has always been highly regarded as the man who had helped create Singapore and putting the little red dot on the map. He had lead his People's Action Party colleagues to push for self-government, leading our pioneer generation into overcoming challenges, giving us, the next generation a better place to live in and a safe and stable place to call home.

He himself has kinda become a Singapore icon and my family and I always loved and respected him. Here's a sincere salute and goodbye to such a great man! RIP Mr Lee Kuan Yew ~~~
