Last Saturday, with tongue in cheek, I told her I was fined coming back from the NTUC store located across the road from my house. Fined? for what? she asked. For walking, I said.
Jaywalking? No, I had to pay a tax just for walking along the road.
I said that the government had authorized a number of organisations to collect tax from people who walk specially near the bus terminals, train stations or shopping malls every Saturday.
Last Saturday, the Ren Ci Hospital were out collecting money from pedestrians. hee hee hee.
Hmmm, I wonder if the registered charities do have to pay tax to the government for the donations that they collect? If that really is the case, then we are taxed for walking along the streets on Saturdays!
