that's the 3 things I have to say about this weekend's F1 GP. dark coz it's the world's 1st night race. wet coz it's been raining and especially so this morning. fast coz it's, F1.
I'm not a huge fan of fast and sleek looking cars, much less the F1 series. but I'm happy that they came to town and it generated such a huge buzz and really boosted singapore's tourism. but as 1 person put it, since it's our 1st, a lot of work went to it and it made singapore look like a huge "under construction" country, what with the integrated resort constructions going on there too.
we are going into a lot of development, all to lure the who's who, big wigs, well-heeled and high rollers in the world to our, little red dot, as some would put it.
suddenly singapore isn't the singapore some of us knew 20 years ago. things grew up so damn fast that it probably left some of the older folks wonder what happened to the good old 40 cent kopi he used to order at the satay club.
welcome to the digital age. where speed matters.
