I tried it with my IC number and got the list of traffic fines in seconds. Was surprised to see one I didn’t even know about from last year. Handy tool.

Just saw that wild stat—63% of hotel staff on unpaid leave and 120 hotels closed temporarily or permanently—really hits hard. Last trip I stayed at a cozy boutique spot in town where the front-desk crew was wearing thin smiles, juggling half the jobs, but still made coffee feel warm. It reminded me of staying at accor hotels singapore—solid, dependable vibes in rough times.
