    The US doesn't actually have a choice, hence all the reef creating...

    They used to get their supplies for bottom dollar on one condition. That they never brought it back to the US. Of course, that didn't mean destroying the machinery, but that was the government egos talking. The actual stationed staff apparently didn't have a problem leaving the equipment for locals, as they had become their friends.

    For million dollar point, we were told someone did bring up some bulldozers, cleaned them up, and took em away to sell, but nothing more...

    edit: didn't realise there was another page, squeak beat me to the bulldozers...

    Sorry, a thread about a shopping mall doesn't deserve to be bumped again, but is that ALL the dedicated motorcycle parking? That looks like you'd need 3 sherpas to carry your food so you could walk to the entrance and back (not to mention leaving fellow parkers to die slowly while stuck in traffic)....

    I bet they'll pack a sad if you park on the footpath near the entrance because they were so kind to have provided dedicated parking.....

    no - there's about double what you see in the pic.
    and it's actually pretty close to an escalator entrance.
    i was impressed to see something there for us - and thought it was a good thing....
    how's that cup, squeak, half empty still?

    Ah, it looked like it was on the other side of nowhere and I thought you was using sarcasm. One sometimes has to deduct based on online personality whether some one is being sarcastic - and I don't personally know the type of person who has actually visited Sylvia Park

    Seriously, I am actually surprised, so good on the developers on this one.

    PS - the cup is over specified for requirements

    Cute is not a word any self respecting heterosexual male should use.

    Except in the context of "she's got a cute arse" etc.
