Man and 2 kids caught breaking into claw machine to steal Labubu dolls at Sim Lim Square

A father accompanied by two kids were caught on camera stealing $100 worth of Labubu dolls at Dr. Clawtopus, a claw machine store located at Sim Lim Square last Sunday (Oct 27). The three dolls that were stolen included a Halloween Labubu and a Pronounce Labubu worth about $38 each, and a «Have a Seat» Labubu worth about $25.  Shop owner Cash Chong shared CCTV footage of the incident with Mothership, revealing how the man broke into the claw machine. The footage showed a man tinkering with the claw machine while two kids, presumably his children, waited by his side. After managing to unlock the machine, he proceeded to push the Labubu dolls into the toy retrieval compartment. Chong also uploaded a screenshot of the family in a now-deleted post on his store's Instagram page last Sunday. He said that he hoped that the family would see the post and return the dolls, adding that no legal action would be taken if they were returned in good condition. The dolls have yet to be returned. Speaking to AsiaOne, the police confirm that a report was lodged and investigations are ongoing.

'Some even returned the items and left': Choa Chu Kang shoppers baffled by supermarket's refusal to provide plastic bags

A supermarket in Choa Chu Kang has left customers confused after refusing to provide plastic bags, even when the latter were willing to pay for them, Shin Min Daily News reported on Wednesday (Oct 30). Speaking with Shin Min, a shopper surnamed Li shared that he had visited the U Stars Supermarket outlet at Block 810A, Choa Chu Kang Ave 7 at 11pm last Saturday (Oct 26).  He had intended to purchase some necessities, but later found out that no plastic bags would be provided at checkout. Noticing plastic bags at the counter, Li tried asking if he could purchase the bags from the store. However, the shop's staff reportedly refused, explaining that it was a new regulation for them. «I asked about when these new regulations were introduced and why there was no notice,» Li told Shin Min. «The staff member hesitated at first before admitting that the regulations were only just introduced a day ago.» Li ultimately put his purchases into his own bag before leaving the shop, but also expressed dissatisfaction with the sudden change in regulations that left some customers uninformed.

Lee Hsien Yang has turned a personal vendetta into an international smear campaign against his father, family and country, said the Singapore government on Thursday (Oct 31).  The statement comes after Lee's interview with the Associated Press (AP) published on Thursday, where he claimed that Singapore has become much more repressive in the decade since the death of his father, founding Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew.  In the interview with the American news outlet, Lee, who was recently granted political asylum in the UK, said: «Singapore has this veneer that purports to be a sort of affluent, democratic, free country. The veneer is quite thin,»  «Beneath that there is a repressive nature to that regime and there are people fleeing from it.»  Addressing Lee's claims, the Singapore government on Thursday (Oct 31) noted that Lee, 67, was a «major beneficiary of the Singapore system».

Singer Marc Dubel keeps Seychellois anecdotes alive through his songs

Anecdotes are part of the Seychellois culture and heritage and one local artist keeps the tradition alive and retells them in his songs. Marc Dubel is a well-known artist in Seychelles and his music is unique as he focuses on stories of the past told by great-grandparents and includes supernatural events. Through his songs, Dubel gives people a chance to take a trip down memory lane and has successfully kept these anecdotes of Seychelles alive. The artist, who now resides on Praslin Island, strives to preserve this part of the island nation's culture because this is part of the Creole identity and what makes the Seychellois culture different.   Becoming an artist Dubel's career in arts started at a young age. He recalled that at that time his friends were members of the National Cultural Troupe. Well-known Seychellois musician, singer and composer, Patrick Victor, today the Seychelles' honorary cultural ambassador, was the founder of the troupe and director of the first Seychellois Creole musical play called «Kastor,» which he wrote in in 1984, and was conducting auditions for various roles. «My friends encouraged me to try out and I did. This was a big step, I went on stage and they gave me a role to play. After a while I got a call telling me that I was successful and from then on I did not look back,» he recalled. «I landed the main role, as Kastor. The personality was a slave of African origins, exiled to Seychelles. At that time, Mahe, Seychelles' main island was called Ile d'Abondance, meaning Island of Plenty. Kastor managed to escape into the forest. He freed himself from slavery. After I had played Kastor, whenever people came to Pointe Larue, my hometown, and asked for Kastor, residents would know you were talking about me,» he said cheerfully. Dubel acted in several other plays and another remarkable one was called «Zen 66,» whereby he played the role of the late France Albert Rene, who was the President of Seychelles from 1977 to 2004. «Everything needs a foundation. We need to revive plays. We see young people trying to revive theatre plays but support is needed for them to be able to soar higher,» Dubel said. The artist, who now resides on Praslin Island, strives to preserve this part of the island nation's culture. (Mandy Bertin) Photo License: All Rights Reserved     Anecdotal songs Dubel told SNA he wrote ancetoal songs at a young age and that he liked to hang around people who were much older than him because they had lots of stories to share and this fascinated him.   «I did not make up these songs, they are based on true stories told by our elders. The song 'Ziraf' (Giraffe) is an example. Back in the days when I was at school, I remember there was an old man, he was very tall and people used to call him Ziraf, which is the Creole name for giraffe,» he recalled. «The song talks about a man known as Msye Mondon (Mr. Mondon), a very authoritative man who was the registrar for Assumption Island, one of the outer islands of the Seychelles' archipelago. His character did not make him popular among the workers. Whoever had to go to the island had to first register with him. One day, Ziraf went to the jetty to register to go there and to take an advance payment, but unfortunately, he did not know how to write his name, so this angered Mr Mondon,» said Dubel. The song tells how the registrar how Ziraf told Mr. Mondon how his long neck helps him sense danger approaching and with that he was allowed to work on the island. Dubel has also written songs on spirits in the woods, adding that on several occasions people have witnessed strange things when walking in the forests and at one point, they realised they were not alone. The artist is now focusing more on Moutya songs but still has many other songs to write. Dubel has his vision board on the walls of his mind, and on it, his dreams are displayed. «When I retire, I wish to teach drama and music to young people. I want them to learn to develop their talents and keep these art forms alive,» Dubel said. The future of our culture in a pioneer's eye «I am a man of my culture. I believe in it and I will keep striving to keep it alive and propel it forward. We need people who have our culture at heart to help artists, cultural enthusiasts, and pioneers. This country needs its culture and together we must work collectively to preserve it,» Dubel told SNA. «The people of Seychelles should be proud of its culture, traditions and heritage. We need to showcase our real culture to our young generation. There is a need to build a strong foundation to ensure that we preserve what we have inherited. But it is sad to realise that not everyone knows the true value of our cultural assets,» he remarked.
