It was with glee that I read the invitation - a dinner at Shangri-la Mactan's delish Cowrie Cove, to launch the Singaporean Food Festival.


Now, despite what many say, I've always had a soft spot for Singapore. This is the place where there's nothing lurid in the front pages of their newspapers except for (gasp) low test scores for their schoolchildren and, as always, its testy relationship with neighbor Malaysia.

After the gathering of some 500 businessmen from the ARMM provinces and nearby Asian countries, British investors signified their intention of putting up a power facility in Sulu and expanding an Arab-funded large-scale banana propagation farm in Maguindanao.

Well, almost. Bars are asked to put enclosures in their establishments and designate them as smoking sections (very NAIA). And in restaurants, the only thing that will be lit are the ovens. So what does that do to the nightcrawlers of our town?
