  Joo Chiat Heritage - "Café Racers & Bluesy Guitars" 08.11.2026 11m

  House of CREO sells motorcycles, beer, live rock and T-shirts. On paper, it’s exactly the kind of newcomer that people mean when they say Joo Chiat is changing. CEO Benjamin Tan came in to buy a bike and left with a business. He talks about building heritage bikes in Singapore, why the showroom and bar stay on Joo Chiat Road, and what a newcomer owes a street known for popiah and kueh chang. His answer might surprise you.

  Red Packets & Lion Dances 19.02.2025 4m

  Chinese New Year is the biggest holiday in Singapore, and a major theme is prosperity. It ranges from giving hong bao (红包), red packets with cash, booking a lion dance troupe or going for the mega jackpot at the national lottery. To mark the Year of the Snake, I'm going to track down a troupe and record a full performance. Will I manage to find one during the 15 days of celebration?  #singapore #chinesenewyear #hangbao #liondance #luckyredpacket #redpacket #cash #prosperity #lottery #jackpot #snake #yearofthesnake Hear.
