Was it in the 80s when Singaporeans were most happy? I remember sometime in the mid 80s when PM Lee said that times were bad and there werent going to be bonuses.Nobody whined or complained because we had faith in him .........then the following year we were rewarded 2 or 3 times fold.Those were the golden years when garmen got power one!

What??? You mean no more A&W in Singapore?
What about the one on Thompson Road near Lake View Estate? What about the one in AMK central?
Do they at least sell the root beer? I loved how they used to serve it in the restaurant in chilled mugs. Then ppl would try to steal the mugs home.
