I had been preparing myself for another rejection of VISA, this time the US. Somewhere in early February this year, the Australian Consulate rejected my VISA application regarding my MXDU Speakership. It did not look so favorable this time too with the US Consulate. I applied late, went off to Singapore and again to Bangalore. And I had the same old documents that I used during the Australian VISA request.

Singapore in 2005 March

Friday, March 11th, 2005 - 9:39 am

I was on a Singapore visit from March 7-11, 2005 to build up a potential partnership with a Singaporean. I attended the first day of Singapore MAX 2005, I will attend the similar second day session in Bangalore instead as I was scheduled to meet someone else that day. Thanks to Christine of Macromedia for arranging a complimentary free pass for me to the Singapore MAX 2005. Met Greg, Titu, James and Bill Perry.

I took a quick Tour of Sentosa just before I leave for the Changi Airport, Singapore. Singapore is a nice place and I am sure I will come back again with more time to spend. I stayed at Golden Landmark, the wi-fi internet access in the hotel was a blazing speed but time limited (S$6.30 per hour) and your charge starts count once you log in whether you use it or not. The StarHUB provided with free wi-fi in the Airport, Suntec City and some places if you roam your phone in their network.
