Orang Utans on the Singapore Flyer

Putting Orang Utans on the Singapore Flyer seems like a stupid idea - and now it seems that the orang utans were actually very frightened. Considering that there are people who have a fear of heights, one wonders why this was thought to be a good publicity stunt and how exactly it was to have drawn attention to the plight of orang utans. Someone also wrote in to protest in today's online forum.

Has anyone read in the Chinese Sin Min papers that a woman with 8 cats was found to be living with also tens of thousands of cockroaches! I can't believe it!
She used to have 20 cats and the neighbours said that must be the explanation for the roaches.
No wonder people call us Crazy cat woman :( :(

Hi Anonymous, I didn't see the article. One thing I wonder - was her apartment dirty? It's possible that the cockroaches may have pre-dated the cats. Also if the place is really dirty, I think all the cats in the world won't be able to clear it of cockroaches.
