    A man was found dead in Punggol River on Monday morning.

    Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said they received a call at 10.26am about a body found floating in the river.

    When they arrived at the scene, the body of a Chinese male was seen floating four metres away from the river bank. The SCDF retrieved the body and pronounced the man dead.

    ya lo. Smu may not be in the rank as ntu, nus in top MBA survey for e.g. but dats prob because its still relatively new and doesn’t qualify for the survey and it doesn’t mean one can get into smu easily. He/she juz needs to look at the median pay of SMU graduates to realize that they are on par if not better than nus/ntu grads. i wld have gone on further but this is not an education forum

    Whenever I see you in any forum, u sure end up quarrelling with others. Your life really that pathetic? If you are so critical abt things happening around you, you must have set very high standard for yourself. But unfortunately, how come you still behave like loser? I'm puzzled

    According to a survey, smu students usually can carry themselves better during a job interview compared to students from ntu or nus. Read somewhere frm news.

    SMU will not be ranked as it is a specialized U. But I know SMU students are also accepted by NUS/NTU with their A level results. Many chose SMU because it is in the city center and hence very convenient.

    The feeling of standing outside the fence and watch others plant is indeed painful and sour.

    yes, dats why i chose SMU too despite having accepted into NTU. i live in east so going to NTU in far west is a pain. the only downside abt SMU is limited space (city psf much higher so space constraint) ..no decent place to do CCA .. so many have to train/practice along the underground corridor. Still this is a small price to pay for the convenience and SMU's strategic location.. esp when u have to go campus often

    haha ..reminds me of the marketing campaign ..WE ARE DIFFERENT. but SMU's sales pitch kinda pays off .. its business faculty is catching up with the NUS,NTU business schools so gonna give these 2 run for their money

    somehow, I find it hard to accept SMU than NTU
    eg, SMU accountancy is a 4 years degree whereas NTU is a 3 years course.
    what makes the difference as end result is about the same

    SMU standard is getting better. The admission criteria has become more and more stringent.

    SMU sleep with banksters. Students from there think they are superior because of the relationship and marketing tie ups with banks.

    Are they good? Not sure unless we remove all the packaging to evaluate.

    Anyone received a letter from far east to choose either porcelain or marble tiles?
    However when I read the S&P, it also included the option of choosing granite.

    Possible to raise a case on this?

    Or am I missing out something?

    What is the difference between Porcelain and Marble tiles, in term of quality, price and appeal?

    I called FEO on this.

    The granite or marble or porcelain option as specified on the Building Specs in the S&P, infers to the options that FEO can choose to provide to buyers.

    In my 2BR instance, FEO gave me the option to choose marble or porcelain.

    I further checked, and it seems that only SOHO units are given the option of granite. Not sure if that is true.

    And there is no option for me to top-up to get granite.

    So i guess, LLST. No room to fight further.

    So which is better?

    I am inclined to have marble (beige colour - warm). But less easily to maintain over time, stain easily and the size of tiles is smaller.

    For porcelain (white colour- cool), i always thought it would have been cheaper and less classy than marble. But the tile size is bigger and easier to maintain.

    At the showflat, somehow the marble looks different. There is gap/grout line between the tiles. I thought there shouldnt be gap between. Is that compress marble?

    For SOHO can choose between 2 theme, "cool"- granite or "warm"-marble
    For layout if choose to get enclose bed room then the floor will be timber
