            There will be a school holiday on 29 August (Monday). Since 30 August is Hari Raya Puasa holiday, it will be a super long weekend for some. :boogie:

              And that also mean that those whose kids are not yet in school may have planned for holidays over the long weekend and now departure have to be adjusted.

                On the topic of school holidays, 1 September will be half day for most schools, I believe. Then 2nd September (Friday) is a school holiday for Teacher's Day.... :imcool:

                  According to the article...

                  \"SINGAPOREANS will elect their next President on Aug 27, a Saturday.

                  Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong issued the writ of election this afternoon and named Aug 17 as Nomination Day. This means that there will be the minimum nine days of campaigning, plus a Cooling-Off Day.\"

                  MINIMUM nine days of campaigning...

                  Erm... why are they so afraid to give people more days to campaign?

                  How am I suppose to get to know the candidates in just 9 days? :siao:
