I haven't been back since Aug 02. 
For now, our life is here too. Though we have been toying with the
idea of moving to Shanghai or Taiwan. Moving back to Singapore is
out of the question. The show brings back memories but beneath it
all, we know the society can't offer what we want. Hence we are
here.
Yes we have kids. 1 black widow (not hiding in a garage corner but
literally as a pet), 1 tarantula, 2 rats and 1 betta. Our dwarf
hamster recently passed away. 
We use pandan leaves in CR. Shun Fa in Monterey Park has fresh
pandan leaves. It's a popular ingredient among Vietnamese
cuisine.
