Kaisu mama Yvonne

Kaisu mama Yvonne was worried for Janelle last week seeing her breakthrough of allergy rashes. Went many places trying to get purifier for her. No luck in local store, hence tried looking via online and even oversea. Getting friends who is in JB, HK, BKK to check on the store and price.  Hus even suggested to fly to BKK and hand carry the puirifer back since he has more than enough of free air ticket to exchange.

Critiea of Puirifer I'm looking for:
1. Purifier + Humidifer (Due to the dry weather, humidifer will come in better than a purifier only.)
2. HPEA filter
3. budget SG$300
4. able to cover a room size.

JB only sells puirifer without humidifer, and it's SOLD OUT too.
HK price is about the same with SG but will need to top up for the postage
BKK price had been mark up at least 30% more than SG due to taxes.
US price will be slightly cheaper but the deliver will takes longer time and also the voltage is another troublesome.

Comparing the prices and avaliabilities, ended i got a way beyond my budget purifier with humidifer from HK as that's the only model that fits into what i wanted except for the price and paid a $80 postage. Begger has no choice. Was kind of heart pain, but hus had assured that this will be a good buy. Not only for during the haze period, but it will continue to be used in our daily life to ease my nightly sinus and help us have a better sleep with better air condition especially in punggol area where construction is non-stop. Looking forward to receive my purifier today.

While waiting for puifier, bought "Aqueous Cream" to apply on Janelle to ease her redness on skin and also to act as a protection from contact of dust.It had ease her redness.

Husband says i'm hopeless when it comes to flight with others Q for purifier/masks etc. But managed to some masks from my colleague and friend for both adult and children. :P I didnt get much, only gotten 5 each as that's to prepare for the worse and to be used only going outdoor only when necessary. :) But did a special delivery of children mask to A for her nephew who i'm more worried over the weekend.

Guess dont need me to tell you how singapore reacted to the Haze, if you want to know more, you can read what the writer had wrote on Dumb and dumber singaporean reastions to the haze.  As a singaporean, i somewhat agreed and disappointed.

Was very gald that there are someone out there are not the dumb and dumber. They cooked green bean soup and sent it to homes over the weekend, helping the old folks. Saw this from my friend facebook



Stop looking at the negative and think positive.

PSI746

The haze is not over yet.


But how did the haze missed Singapore? Look at the map, winds just blew it north east like there is a huge fan blowing it away from Singapore. The Indonesian Minister said it takes a miracle to stop the haze. I thank God for his mercy on my country but we need to pray for our neighbours that He will stop the haze by sending us unprecedented rain in this dry season to extinguish the fires.



Singapore is having clearer sky (PSI 105)


but not so good for our Neighbour:

Singapore Haze 2013

Over the past one week, the air quality has drastically worsened and a strong burning smell can be detected across many parts of Singapore. Singapore air had been covered by smog which caused by illegal forest fires in our neighbour country - Indonesia's Sumatra island since last thrusday. The Pollutant Standards Index, Singapore's main measure for air pollution, surged to a record reading of 371, breaching the 'hazardous' classification that can aggravate respiratory ailments.
All masks and purifiers of all brands no matter what's the price tag had been wiped off by the 5th day of Haze. If the condition continue, Singapore Gov will shut down schools and some workplace.

With this Haze condition, i see how stupid singaporean can be. Netizen behind the computer are irrationality in blaming singapore government or even PAP about the haze. https://www.facebook.com/FabricationsAboutThePAP Bascially any unhappiness they faced, they blamed singapore government. Sometime i find it a joke and shame on their action, when they are using one finger to point at the singapore government, they have another fingers pointing to themselves. Let's face it, if you dont self help, what can government do?  personnally, i feel that xiaxue (a famous singapore blogger who netizen criticize her as bimbo) speaks more sense then anyone of them.

Had been staying indoor as much as possible, and yesterday saw Janelle dust allergy breakthrough and seeing redness rashes on her face and legs. Wanted to get a purifier for her yesterday night but no luck at all, all stock had been wiped off. Even aircon filter is also out of stock. Maybe i'm slow in re-acting. Now getting J to get it for me from hongkong and post it to singapore. Paying for a higher price for the seek of Janelle. Praying for heavy rain to wash away the haze.
