Later I went to an MRT station to top-up my card. I also had the feeling that the girl behind the counter was from China, so I asked her. She told me the province she came from.
On the way home I went to a supermarket to buy mantou. The cashier was also a China girl. I had asked her too.
It was a public holiday. Are more foreigners scheduled to work on public holidays? I don't think so. Probably just coincidence.
So, are foreigners taking our jobs, or just that companies cannot get enough locals to do these jobs? I guess it is the latter.
Mantou
Here are the small mantou I bought. I have been eating the bigger ones. The small ones take a shorter time to steam, about six minutes will do. Taste also good.
They look big but actually they are small. You can finish one mantou in 2 bites.

It is not easy to get locals to work in these jobs. Many perceive them to be low-paying, low-prestige, menial and requiring long hours and shift work.
Even the mantous, whether big or small, are also from China, I believe?
Haha what makes you think the mantou from China, no, they are Singapore made.
I was given a ticket to Jubilee Theatre on 31.5.09 to watch a Cantonese singing or opera , i dont know ? Franxis, any idea ?
you got any brochure ? You are very 'on' with respect to local show.
I don't know what show is that.
There are many shows I do not know about.
