Two of the hottest topics this week: arrival of the pandas and return of the haze.

I was reading the news bulletin this morning when I unexpectedly choked on my own saliva. That line went something like this, “截至早上8點，新加坡全島的空氣污染指數介於65到 *COUGH* 7⋯⋯ *COUGH* 75點 *COUGH*。”

The comments came in fast and furious.

— Wah! PSI really high hor?
— Wah! Nowadays read news must do special effects one ah?
— Wah! You coughed at the right time!
— Wah! The PSI news have to be so drama or not?

Tsk.
