Hohoho....! I'm back from Taiwan.
2 earthquakes striked Southern Taiwan last night. My silly friends were so worried that i may be trapped in the earthquake zone that they frantically called and msged me for a reply. Dont worry my dears, i was already in the plane 2 hours before the earthquake striked. Thank goodness we only went for 5 days, if not i will probably be trapped at the earthquake zone now. =P
I think we quite lucky that it didnt rain at all for the 5 days that we were there. My cousin who just went Taiwan a few days before us told us that it was raining everyday when he was there. Surprisely it didnt rain a single drop when we arrived at Taiwan.
Though it didnt rain, it was quite cold and i fell sick on the 2nd day. -.- Luckily, i recovered fast enough the next day to still enjoy the good food there. =)
Speaking of sickness, do you know that the Taiwanese's need to pay only NT$150 (= SG$7.50) to see a doctor? The rest of the medical fees are being paid by the government. Be it the old or the young, be it visiting doctors in hospitals or private doctors, be it seeing a doc for fever or heart operation, as long as you can afford to pay NT$150, you can leave the rest to the government!
All Taiwan citizens have got their personal health care card like an ID where all their health histroy are being recorded in the card everytime they visit the doctors. The card actually records the types of medication they took and their illnesses. How cool is that?
All these privileges are being enjoyed by the Taiwanese because Ah Bian wants every Taiwanese to be Jian Jian Kang Kang.
Sad to say, it's better to die than to be terminally sick in Singapore.
Anyway....... unlike the last entry bout my Hong Kong trip, i'm not gonna give a detailed narration bout the trip. I shall let the pictures do the talking...
