Pizza Hut Delivery is Awesome

Recently I have been ordering from Pizza Hut quite often thanks to the free pizza coupons that they gave when they were late, but I still have to say that their delivery service is excellent. Their online ordering site is just simply industry standard, shopping cart style, just like KFC or McDonald's so nothing special here, choose your food, go to cart, checkout, pay online or cash-on-delivery. What is truly amazing is when I receive the food from their awesome delivery guys, when they are late, they ALWAYS come with a free pizza coupon stapled on the receipt, no question asked, they must have known it will be late so they must have stapled it in advance, this is pro-activeness, they know they have a problem and they come with a solution, this is commendable.

Then packaging, their packaging is awesome, ev

Where to Translate Golden Mile Complex, Level 2 Royal Thai Embassy If I remember correctly, they charge around S$40-S$45 per page at Golden Mile but personally, I have not tried any of the above.

http://www.ica.gov.sg/news_details.aspx?nid=12665 Good news for those of us who cannot get PR for our beloved spouse, because the Singapore government has come up with a enhanced long-term visit pass called LTVP-PLUS or LTVP+. I'll sum up the key points in the FAQ provided by ICA so you don't have to go through one big page. Do let me know if I missed out anything or correction is required by dropping a comment. GENERAL LTVP+ will be in effect from 01 Apr 2012. LTVP+ holders will enjoy extended duration of residency, public healthcare subsidies and easier access to employment.

How to Marry a Thai in Singapore

You should refer to here -  https://www.rom.gov.sg/reg_info/rom_marriage.asp Please spend some time to go through and understand the information on that section (legal provision, other information, filing of notice, solemnization and etc), if your still not sure, feel free to drop a comment here or you can use their FAQ .

The only hiccup I've had with my marriage is during the  Appointment for verification & Statutory Declaration where both of us were required to read out a wall of text and my wife had difficulty getting past the first few lines and the counter guy got fed up and told my wife to stop. Definitely my oversight as I didn't arrange for an interpreter beforehand but luckily, there was a licensed interpreter at the scene and we managed to get her to do the interpretation fo
