Singapore Haze Zone |
A Haze of Humour:
"The haze was so bad at the TCS Stars Awards 97 that I thought the winner
of the best actor category was chef
Martin Yan."
(Winner Christopher Lee
appeared at the awards in an apron).
Newscaster on TV news:"The latest PSI reading is 122 or was it 211.
... Err, sorry, it's so hazy I can't see the PSI level!"
Motorists in Singapore are anxious to know about the PSI readings because if
the haze gets really bad, they do not need to buy the ALS to get into the CDB.
In London, the hottest song is "Candle in the Wind".
In Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia, it's "Smoke Gets In Your Eyes".
In the event of a shortage of clinical masks, different bras are used for
varying levels of haze. For PSI 100 to 200 - use A Cup, for 200 to 300
- use B Cup, for 300-400 - use C Cup. If level exceeds 400 - put on the
Maximiser!
The final word:
"OK already lah! Enuff of all these haze jokes.
With the haze so bad, jokes can only choke"
