| Monkey
grooming and petting a
kitten | | |

| "CALL it
the maternal instinct. The moment the small monkey
saw the kitten under a tree on Bedok North Street
1, it sprang into action, carrying the kitten up a
tree. Curious residents gathered around the
tree near Block 419 to watch, some concerned that
the surrogate mother would drop its charge.
But the feline was in good hands. It showed
no fear and did not try to get away. Rather
it seemed to relish the close attention it was
getting. The monkey cradled it, kept it safe
from circling crows, and even groomed it.
Talk of love at first sight. At about 3 pm
on Sunday when journalists from Shin Min Daily
News left the scene, the unusual pair, there since
morning, were still up in the
tree." | | |

In many SE Asia public restrooms
(toilets) hand towels are not provided. Air Dryers
are often underpowered or do not work.
This is a safety message for the
public. | | |

There are two versions of toilet
fixtures to accommodate cultural differences
(Squat/flat toilets and more modern toilets). This
public service message encourages people to use
the facilities correctly. "Cross using" the
toilets can leave them soiled for the next person.
Note the footprints on the seat in
