one of the things that really can't do

This probably doesn't have that much to do with me, but I'd have to say it anyway.

Jurong is NOT an ulu place! Stop saying it as though it exists somewhere on an offshore island that is located 25km away from the mainland. It is not a God-forsaken place in the middle of nowhere. Even Jurong Island isn't that ulu.

If you haven't noticed, there are currently 4 MRT stations situated in Jurong alone. In a few more years, that would increase to 6. In other words, if you still have not taken some part of your precious time to come to realise, that is about one-fifth of the number of stations on the East-West line.

It can't be that ulu when there're dozens of bus services operating here and 6 MRT stations and with free bus shuttling services from various places to IMM and a Regional Library that has just been renovated. And one of the last functional ice-skating rinks.

Hm... that was the reason in the first place, right?

Well, nobody asked anyone to go skating at such an ulu place. It's not anyone's fault that the ice-skating rink is located at such an ulu place, isn't it? It's just located there.

Oh, and I've never thought people would say that JE entertainment centre is a huge place. It's an old, old building that has lost part of its liveliness quite a long time ago. I believe the Library is slightly bigger though.

And keep your facts clear: Jurong big enough for people to find purpose in seperating Jurong East and Jurong West. (Big enough on an island this size, at any rate) Do not ever try saying things like JE Entertainment Centre is near Boon Lay and such. I will be very very seriously amused.

Yup, it's home to alot of factories. Yes, there's an extension leading to an offshore island nearby. Yes, there are wharfs nearby as well. No, the millitary being situated here doesn't count at all right? Well, what about this certain number of people living here? It's been so many years since the first estates have been built.

Argh, I have had enough of these "Jurong is ulu" talk. Yew Tee and Yishun are as ulu to me as Jurong to you.
