Crims blow up Sydney restaurant

By Amy Dale

April 29, 2009 06:00am

A 4WD vehicle has been deliberately blown up by balaclava-clad thugs, wiping out a Sydney restaurant, while another ATM has been destroyed in a huge explosion in a crime-fuelled night.

Witnesses told The Daily Telegraph they saw two men in hooded tops and balaclavas sprint from the restaurant in Bay St, Brighton-Le-Sands, only minutes before the vehicle and building exploded into flames shortly before 11.30pm.

The now destroyed Lebanese restaurant, Al Aseel, had only been open for a few weeks.......

can u call this is quality of life when police is challenged and cant

get the gangters?I know u will tell me oz is very big,bleh bleh......

each city is just 1 to 2 millions of population more than Singapore.

Population Size is not an excuse!!ATM blown up crimes exploded across

Oz,with few dozens cases!!

''Meanwhile, the alarming stream of ATM bam-raids across Sydney continues with yet another explosion and raid in a Northern Beaches shopping centre overnight.

Hi noisy lion

Cut Mercer some slack. They clearly state you're welcome to disagree.

From the Mercer site:

"People perceive many different things when they speak of quality of living. While everyone agrees that a high crime rate is undesirable and the air we breathe, the house, the environment we live in should be clean, there is great diversity in ideas about quality of living, thus reflecting the different use of the term and different understanding depending on age, gender social position, etc. of the person."

Although Quality of Life is a broadly used term, it should not be confused with what Mercer refers to as Quality of Living. In fact, Quality of Life may involve a subjective assessment or opinion, whereas Mercer’s criteria are objective, neutral and unbiased."

And this is the list of non-Australian cities Mercer thinks is better than Singapore:

VIENNA ZURICH  GENEVA  VANCOUVER  AUCKLAND  DUSSELDORF
MUNICH FRANKFURT BERN  COPENHAGEN  WELLINGTON
AMSTERDAM BRUSSELS TORONTO  OTTAWA  BERLIN
LUXEMBOURG STOCKHOLM   MONTREAL NURNBERG
OSLO DUBLIN

Most of them are as safe as Singapore is and have so much more to offer than this little red dot. Or are you going to try and discredit them, as you have tried to in the case of Australian cities?

these aussie are stupid assholes, go blow up ATM for what, i heard that in india in indonesia, they uproot the whole ATM machine by a crane lorry and take it along.

If you talk about Singapore, in a high tech society, people use genuine faked cards cor finger nos scanning technics to counter the machine, no harm done at all.

angel7030 SG

Yeah! Singapore is one of the best city livable. Then why so many complain and dissatisfaction here ar?

Miracles&Prophecies SG

Hey everyone should migrate to Singapore so fed up Singaporeans could migrate out of the island.

save a soul bound yourself to tyranny.

Gary: He said to me at the lift lobby 90% of the exact words – ”Mr Tan,if you walk out of here tomorrow,you might get killed.You might meet with a mysterious accident,you might disappear and nobody will know what happened to you! Mr Tan, some things and people in this country you cannot offend! Some people are above all things! You better make sure you know this! Mr Tan,we can arrange for things to happen to you.You understand or not!”

spent a couple of years in sydney. Came back unscathed. In terms of things to do, the quality of life there is much better.

Met a lot of expats in Singapore and tell you what, all admitted that they are here for the money. If they tell you they moved here because of safety concerns and cleaniness, infrastructure etc, that is just to make you feel good...singapore is sterile.
