Month: June 2007

Walk of the Month – July 2007

Dear SHC members, 

Let’s take a leisurely stroll back in time, to the era of the five kings and the golden age of 14th century Singapore! 

The Malay locals when they received Raffles pointed him to a hill called Bukit Larangan (Forbidden Hill).  Around 1860, the colonial government turned this hill into a fort.  From that time until the 1970s, Fort Canning was used as a military base – first by the British, the the Japanese and lastly by the Republic’s armed forces.

Fort Canning Park – I am sure many would know where it is but perhaps just like me, had visited it only to attend wedding receptions, events and concerts. 

For those who tarry to enjoy the peace and tranquility of the park, there is a lot to discover and much to behold.  There were many marvelous looking trees and interesting fauna. Majestic trees, a ‘heritage tree’ truly gnarled with age!  It is said that the park is not only a gathering place for birds but also a home and hunting ground to populations of squirrels, bats and lizards.

The Park has several main entrances/exits.  We shall attempt to cover the entire Park in about about 2 hours.

Date: 14th July 2007 (Saturday)

 

Place: Fort Canning Park

 

Start Time:  we start the walk at 4.30pm

 

Meeting point: Penang Road, Park Mall (near the Lift Lobby)

Getting there:  Best mode of transport is by MRT – Dhoby Ghaut Station. 

By bus – bus-stop opposite Park Mall (Penang Road is a 1-way traffic) 124, 162, 167, 171, 174, 175, 190, 502, 7, 14, 16, 36, 65, 77, 106, 111.

Rain or shine, see you guys there.

Finding ways to take advantage of the internet

In the past, we rely on letters, postcards, meetings.  Today, we have the internet.  SHC promotes the use of the internet and email.  More than 99% of our members have email addresses.  But, many are not comfortable with using the internet for other purposes.  SHC has tried online webchats; but this has not been successful.  Well, let’s try again.

The benefits of SHC webchats:

  1. A great e-learning activity.
  2. Enables you to contact members from other parts of the world.
  3. Enables you to give small seminars to the SilverHairs, from your home.
  4. Enables you to teach your favourite subject, to the world.

I have just enabled the star-conference software, and if you have successfully downloaded this program on your computer, you will hear a radio program.  Successful users will be invited to participate in SHC webchats, participate in seminars and give talks and presentations.

Successful users, please let us know here.  Click here to start.

Reading keeps us uptodate. Books to share and exchange

All of us have books at home.  We have read them, and they are nicely left on the shelf.  It would be nice if we can borrow some of these books; equally nice, if we can lend others these books.

Books helps us to stay alive.  It refreshes the minds.

All SilverHairsClub members meet regularly, at monthly gatherings, walks, cycling, chats or parties.  We can exchange these books.  Remember to return though.  If you have a book that you like to lend someone, share the name of your book here.

Lending and borrowing books are also excellent ways to get to know one another better.

SHC Calendar of Events is up, at the top of website

Two months ago, Christina Chan suggested the issue of a diary of SilverHairsClub activities.  As more posts come up, events are pushed lower the forum listing.  This makes it difficult to find the events.

Dolly Lim and Yew Kwong have both volunteered to be SHC Calendar of Events managers.  If you are organising an activity for SilverHairsClub members, you may inform Dolly or Yew Kwong.  They will insert your activity into the Calendar of Events.   Thank you both for volunteering.

Note:  Non-SHC members, external organisations, external events, advertising or promotions not allowed.

Blue Helmet – Business with a Heart

An opportunity appears on the horizon to be operated as a business with links to SHC and her members.

We are looking for people having managerial traits with skills and knowledge in finance, administration and computers to automate as many repetitive processes as possible.  Collectively, interested parties will work together as one Biz Unit – SOHO Team that will work out the business model.  Amongst yourselves, please appoint your business officers and be prepared to stand before the Select Committee to make the marketing pitch to clinch the deal.  We encourage as many teams as possible to come forward.  There is enough business for everyone.

Typical business model will be to run automated finance & administration services to customers who are resident with us in the same office or externally.  There are more that one can do for Company, which wants to outsource their backroom work to reliable third parties like SOHO.

The Biz Unit – SOHO Team will think through the service product, it’s pricing and the operational flow and control needed.

If you do need help, just let KT Wong or Edwin Ong know, and arrangements will be made to have that support provided.  Just post your request here.

* SOHO = Small Office / Home Office

Fit to Die?

A Defence Executive Officer working in the SAF fainted and died after completing a run on a treadmill. Relatively fit and health concious people have been known to die during workouts.

Sad and frustrating especially if you exercise regularly. What’s gone wrong? What can we do to prevent it from happening.

Computer Data Back-up

Hi good people,

A gentle reminder ……..do remember to back-up …..all your data, passwords, email addresses etc etc.

I was lax in doing this, and boy was it frustrating, to say the least, for a computer illiterate like me.

Maybe Yew Kong or some computer buff SHCian could set up a help desk on this for people like me, who at our age, learnt what little we know thru’ trial and error. I had to start everything from scratch, even my Email address. Please take note.

Sure is hard trying to catch up with whats going on in SHC. ………….Regards………Jie

Perth Wildflowers

Hi

Is anyone keen to join me on a tour to see wildflowers down in Western Australia? I’m particularly interested in a).

These wildflower tours can range from:a) a day tour on 18 Sep that costs AUD 55 per person b) 3D/2N from 7 – 9 Sep for AUD 588 pp or c) 4D/3N from 13-16 Sep for AUD 786. These are conducted by a local tour agency. I have joined a day crayfish tour a few months back and thoroughly enjoyed it and felt that it was good value for money.

You can also opt to do other things while you are in Perth either, free and easy on your own or with some help from me to arrange some activities for you. For those who think the b) and c) I’m also thinking of arranging one self-drive tour to save some costs. Let me know directly if you wish to join in.

SHC Concerts

Dear SHC Members,

I feel honored to be given this task of organizing SHC the concert. All this while, I have been toying with the idea of a big bang showcase of talents from within SHC and also the hiring of a large auditorium etc. It was just awhile ago that a little “tweety bird” flew by and whispered that we could start off first with mini concerts at old folk Homes. Thanks, little birdie!! The task suddenly became easier to fulfill!!

With this in mind, I am redressing my outlook and am now embarking on looking for artiste/s within our midst who would like to volunteer their time and services to come and start the ball rolling.

For ease of stage presentation, I would like to name this sub-group as… SHC Music & Dance Troupe. Sounds a little old, never mind lets just move along and see what happens next. Right now, the priority is to round up as many interested members as possible and we shall see how we could program an exciting showcase with whatever we have….mini bang!!

1. Dancers. I need all types, give me your names. Tell me what steps you know. E.g. Tango, Rhumba, Cha Cha, Fox etc. Do you have a partner for serious ball room dancing demonstrations or do you Line Dancing only…if so, can you do simple choreography? Square Dance/Country Style? Hawaiian Hula? Tell me more.

So let’s go, drop me a note on this thread, I will be happy to hear from you, Cheers!

You can change the photo at the top of this website

Have a look at the photo at the top of the SilverHairsClub website.  Don’t you think it needs a change?  Instead of me taking the photograph, how about you making use of your telephone camera, and emailing me the digital photo.  If we receive more than one photo, we shall have a vote.

Let your fingers follow your heart.

When do most SilverHairs visit the SHC website?

Here are some statistics.  Most members start to visit the SHC website at 0800 hrs and 2300 hrs each day.  Usually, the lowest peak period is 1700 hrs.  Maybe, this is because many SilverHairs are still working.  See the trends here.

You are encouraged to share your interests with other SilverHairs.  We want to hear from you.  I see there are interests to discuss investments, health and business issues.  These topics are encouraged.  If your Posts or Comments are not published or deleted, you may email the administrator to enquire.  We will get you a reply within 48 hours.

Here are some reasons why your Posts or Comments may not be published.

  • Some key words are objectional.  Note the club’s taboos.
  • Any reference to external websites, names, addresses or telephone numbers.  Promoting any external organisation without administrator’s approval.
  • Automatic Posting authority may be granted to those who have posted at least 3 Posts.
  • Comments authority is granted to all members.
  • For jokes, and information only articles, please  use Non-SHC stories, jokes, info   under Pages.
  • And, if you write a Post, without a category, chances are your Posts will be held back.
  • Other than SHC activities, any Post over 15 lines may be delayed.  Please keep within the 15  line text box.  No limit on comments

As a new feature, we have added "Latest Posts" and "Latest Comments" for your convenience.  This is at the very top of the website.

Have fun.

Property Investment for financial freedom

Anybody like to group to invest in properties on a TIC basis? (Tenant-in-Common). You can also share your traumatic experience if you have a recent en-bloc. Like what to do with too much money.

One enbloc can set you free. Put back $300 to 400 K in a beautiful spacious HDB flat say in Punggol and the remaining million plus into annnuity for $60Kpa will set you free for life. Your only problem left is how to live beyond 85 and beat the house odds.

We call this "HomeRun". The final stretch. Hee-hee.

Financial planning for a life of leisure

I am revamping this thread.

Many people are not even aware of the basic options out there. How can they creatively structure their finances?

Let’s scan the opportunities together. If you find some interesting program, post it here and share. Keep it short and in summary. Provide links to details. Declare if you are a vendor or have commercial interest. We can still learn from you but we would like to know where you are coming from.

(Disclaimer : Unless otherwise declared, I have no commercial interest in things discussed in this thread. )

Idea on our Website

Reading the SHC website has become one of my daily habit. During the reading, I consider our website lack of two kindof postings.

  1. Durable posting except the personal profile
  2. Knowledgeable posting

Some friends told me that, now SHC has 3000 plus members and will become 10000 in the near future. All of us are over 45, and been involved in all kind of businesses, there should be a tremendous knowledge base inside our SHC, but seems that no one try to utilize it.

Use two scenarios to illustrate this problem

1.      When member A faced some problem, he does not have a channel to ask for help (advices) from our SHC. For example, if I have friends from Hong Kong, and I don’t know where to take them to visit and eat, how can I ask for advices from SHC, Of course, my one is trivial, there should be unlimited problems outside waiting for advices.

2.      When member B wants to share some of his knowledge, there is also no channel for him to do so. For example, Richard Lee shared his view on the CPF special account interest rate in the May gathering – retirement issues. If no this gathering, even Lee like to share also cannot.

So, I would like to propose SHC create a platform for members to seek help and for members to share what they want to share. Our website should be the best choice for this platform.

As time goes by, this will form a large knowledge database of our SHC. The information inside the database, after interpret, discuss, update will be more live, accurate, and useful. It will be a precious property of our SHC

The above humble idea suddenly comes to my mind. Write it down for consideration. Thanks.

I could hve danced all nite-Part 2

Hi Terence think I should hve a "closure" to my posting…"I could hve danced all nite". appreciate it pls, if you cld post the following for me, thanks much… I refer to my posting in Apr.."I could hve danced all nite". Wow, the posting attracted quite a lot of comments. It also prompted several members to form small groups to go clubbing before the intended date 15 Jun :-))). They are the Nike people…just do it people!!! I joined one of the groups on the eve of Vesak, to Zouk. Suaku me did not know tht the action only begins at 11pm!! Anyway, it was exciting after having not gone for 3 decades!!! . By the way, the scene has not changed much…the drinks esp the non-alcholic ones were the same, the lightings etc. One thing was different though. That nite, I noted there were more young guys than young girls!!! During my time in the 70’s, there were more young girls than young guys :-((( Must be more female post war babies :-))) Anyway, after having gone to Zuok, I hve to accept the fact that I couldn’t dance all nite after all…no energy :-))) Since I hve gone and many members hve gone clubbing after my posting, I would like to close my posting for 15 Jun.

HOWEVER, if there are some members out there who are waiting patiently and looking forward to the 15 Jun nite out, then pls let me know so that I can arrange the outing to St James.
