Chingay 2009 To Make Way For Sheng Siong Show Finale ?

28 Jan 2009

The annual Chingay Parade for this year has been scheduled to take place on two days - Friday , 30 Jan 2009 & Saturday 31 Jan 2009 ( 8pm) .

The Chingay Parade has been a yearly affair since 1973 , held in conjunction to add more atmosphere to the Chinese New Year Celebrations . This year , it will not only be held over these two days , but it is set to hit the streets of Singapore to the heartlands near u !

Mediacorp Channel 8 who has been showing the Chingay Parade LIVE each year WILL NOT for the very first time be showing it LIVE this year ! Instead , it is scheduled to show the Last Episode of the Sheng Siong Show LIVE from 8pm to 9pm this Saturday instead !

The Channel will however carry a DELAYED TELECAST of the Parade on the next day instead - Sunday , 1 February 2009 from 8pm to 10pm and trailers of the scheduled DELAYED Telecast of the Chingay Parade 2009 has been hitting the TV Screens recently .

Some felt that the reason for the move was due to the clash of the Sheng Siong Show & the Chingay Parade , with both starting at the same time of 8pm ! However , some felt that the Chingay could still be scheduled to be shown LIVE on Mediacorp other Channels instead - if Channel 8 is really unable to accomodate to the LIVE Telecast of the Chingay Parade !

The Chingay Parade could still have been shown LIVE on Channel U , Channel 5 or even ChannelNewsAsia instead of only making plans for a DELAYED Telecast on Channel 8 the next day ! Singaporeans who could not make it to watch the Parade at the venue on Saturday and have been tuning to the LIVE Telecast of the Chingay Parade on TV each year will surely be very disappointed indeed with the arrangement made this year !

Catch Jack Neo CNY Movies FIRST & EXCLUSIVELY On Malaysia's ntv 7 & 8TV Channel !

25 January 2009

Have Jack Neo for this Chinese 牛 Year ! Though Jack Neo current Chinese New Year Movie - "幸福万岁" Love Matters is currently being shown in all cinemas around Singapore , sadly it is NOT meant for everyone - to those under 18 Years of Age at least SORRY ( It's Not meant For U This Time ) as it has been given a NC-16 Rating ! The first out of so many Movies that Jack Neo has produced to be given such a rating by the Media Development Authority ( MDA ) which even Jack Neo himself earlier even expressed utter shock & disbelief at the eventual overcome !

This has understandably caused many audiences ( under the unrequired age Category ) to feel left out & disappointed , having grown up with watching many of Jack Neo's popular & best Selling Box - Office Movies such as I Not Stupid ( Part 1 & 2 ) , Money No Enough ( Part 1 & 2 ) etc ...

However , u will not be felt left out of not being able to watch Jack Neo CNY Movie for this
牛 Year ! U still can show your support for Jack Neo Movies , not at the Cinemas , but at the comfort of your own home ! Not watching "幸福万岁" - Love Matters , of course ... but watching two of Jack Neo's past CNY Movies being shown FIRST & EXCLUSIVELY on two Malaysian Free To Air TV Channels ! ( Not even yet shown on Mediacorp Channels - Channel 8 & Channel U , I believe ) ...

So , it's a first for everyone - both for Malaysian & Singapore Viewers alike watching these two Jack Neo CNY Movies being shown on TV ! First , catch Jack Neo's Last Year Box Office CNY Movie - 老师嫁老大 Ah Long Pte Ltd being shown FIRST & EXCLUSIVELY on Malaysia's ntv 7 Channel on Day 1 of Chinese New Year ( 26 January 2009 ) at 10pm ! Starring , Fann Wong & Mark Lee in this light-hearted Comedy Movie , let the duo provide u with even more laughter this Chinese 牛 Year !

While if u thought that is still not enough to make up for the loss of not being able to watch this year's Jack Neo's CNY Movie in the Cinemas , here's another Good News for U : U can get to watch another Jack Neo CNY Movie on the Second Day of Chinese 牛 Year on Malaysian TV Channel as well ! This time round on 8TV Channel ....

Starring again Fann Wong but this time with funnyman Gurmit Singh aka PCK , Jack Neo's 2007 Year CNY Movie -
我在政府部门的日子 will be shown on 27 January 2009 ( Day 2 of CNY ) on 8TV Channel at 8.30pm to 10.30pm !

So for fans of Fann Wong , have her to entertain u and bring u lots of laughter on Day 1 & 2 of Chinese 牛 Year respectively with ntv 7 & 8TV Channel !
