In the year 2000, I was in singapore and got into a vacant bus. It was not yet time for the bus to leave. As I was sitting there, I hear Made In India sung from somewhere. Since there were no passengers, I wondered who it was; later, I discovered that it was the driver - kind of hidden in the cabin like thing in one of those big a.c. buses.

As I went up, he smiled at me - recognizing that I was Indian. All in all it was time well-spent in Singapore. Except that they put me in custody overnight for drunken behavior (actually, that was my normal behavior - just that they did not know :)

  1. Actually the cops suspected I was on drugs and tested my blood. It turned out to be otherwise, but I had to spend the night in custody because I did not like to call up my sister in the middle of the night and give her a scare. I chose to spend the night in custody and suffer. It was a memorable night, along with many others spent along boat quay by the side of the Singapore river.
