How can they possibly be such puritans compared to our own country?? It certainly beggars belief!<BR/><BR/>Oh, Xeus, you're in good company...I read somewhere that the children's book "The Bad Book" by popular Aussie writer Andy Griffiths, so go figure!<BR/><BR/>Dark City is too cool to be overlooked by the Singaporean public. I'm sure if they heard about the ban, Singaporeans will probably be flocking to Johor bookstores to get a copy!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29497206.post-1154956961382216222006-08-07T06:22:00.000-07:002006-08-07T06:22:00.000-07:00Guys, thanks.
