a czech name jiri - make it happen


jiri stayed in singapore for 30 years.

he loves singapore for its garden-like beauty. he's a widower. and he likes to talk to people.

"hey, you know i admire your gahmen doing a good job in making this place really a garden city."

"yes, singapore is well kept. europe also got a lot of places much more beautiful than places in singpore."

"yes, but can you imagine, singapore just a red dot, you can walk into a park, a river, a pcn, a reservor, a garden.... within 10 minutes.... europe, you have to take a plane."

"why a plane? they have a lot of parks and gardens in the cities also."

"not in winter time."

"so europe has 4 seasons, better than no season, or rather rain and no-rain seasons in singapore."

"only if you like to wrap yourself like a dumpling for every half of the year, be my guest."

"how about europe's ranches, orchards, mountains, rivers....."

"you have them all here - you have orchard road, you and mount faber, you have kallang river, and you ..."

"we don't have ranches!"

"sure you have."

"where?"

"very soon, you will have them on top of the hdb's"
