Profits on the manufacture and sale of active pharmaceutical ingredients are subject to little or no corporate tax. Those tax benefits, combined with workforce development and education programs, investment participation by the Singapore Economic Development Board (SEDB), political stability, and a legal regime that respects intellectual property, have enabled Singapore to compete with the cost advantages of India and China.<BR/>----------------------------------<BR/>Ian smith<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.hookup-tonite.com" REL="nofollow"> http://www.hookup-tonite.com</A>Arunnoldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11587556128819767596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17155320.post-45485791266464243792008-02-18T18:14:00.000-05:002008-02-18T18:14:00.000-05:002008-02-18T18:14:00.000-05:00Anonymous: You're very right, although in this case, it was very clear that this was a family-run operation, back to front. What wasn't reflected in the review was that the service was entirely lackluster, too; we felt like we were being rushed out of the restaurant, even thought it was a little past 8, and only one other group of diners were there.Dave Leehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03023611602587325096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17155320.post-21282940389631372262007-12-06T13:56:00.000-05:002007-12-06T13:56:00.000-05:002007-12-06T13:56:00.000-05:00You say you thought about shorting on your tip because you didn't like the food, but that would be wholly unfair to your waitperson who probably had zero to do with the food. You should only short on a tip for really bad service. If it's the food that is lousy, complain to the manager or never go back (or, in this case, post a negative review on your blog). But don't, as they say, kill the messenger.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17155320.post-63183687286606597542007-11-26T22:25:00.000-05:002007-11-26T22:25:00.000-05:002007-11-26T22:25:00.000-05:00Hey Dave,<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your review of Singapore Cafe. Sounds like the restaurant could use a few improvements! Anyway, I'm looking forward to reading more of your blogs!<BR/><BR/>Also, I just put together a map-based guide for visualizing local interests in Manhattan and I'd like to get your input on its interface. If you're interested, we can meet for coffee or drinks and I'll showcase it to you. Take care, and I'll be sure to stay plugged into your blog!<BR/><BR/>Later,<BR/><BR/>Johnmapflexhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15482735791078977639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17155320.post-34238231194932702842007-10-17T17:24:00.000-04:002007-10-17T17:24:00.000-04:002007-10-17T17:24:00.000-04:00Growing up in Singapore, I can say that Singapore Cafe is not bad at all. Takes me home. <BR/><BR/>Have you tried Fatty Crab, located on Hudson in the W. Village? Even though it's run by Ang Mor's, I must say, it's rather impressive. Must check out their Chili Crab!<BR/><BR/>--------------------------<BR/>I like to eats.<BR/>http://dru.gobbl.com<BR/>http://www.gobbl.comAndrewhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08367767369427559062noreply@blogger.com
