Genting is moving to Sentosa!

Lionel woke me up on Sunday morning with the very exciting news - Spurs had won 5-1.

Oh and Genting had won the Sentosa bid.

Part of me was waving the Malaysian flag and shouting "Malaysia Boleh! Genting Boleh!"

The other part was saying,"Siao boh? They're actually going ahead with the whale shark tank ar? If Michael Jackson come and dangle his baby outside his hotel window above the whale sharks, then how?"

Lionel was more upset that Nobu and Gordon Ramsay wouldn't be coming to Singapore as part of the Las Vegas 8th Wonder plan. The boy thinks with his stomach 30% of the time...

Anyway I just thought it was very suspicious that around the time the winning bid was to be announced, Najib had to come out and spew good things about Malaysian relations with Singapore. Did we just give our southern neighbours a part of the SJER so we could reap a few economic benefits from Sentosa? Such neighbourly love. Doesn't that make you feel all fuzzy inside?

Check out the video links on channel news asia. I wanna stay in the resorts on stilts. When Lionel earns enough money. I tried laying out my entire tai-tai plan before him but he will have none of it...
