The largest and most popular online payment company Paypal opened it’s international headquarters and development center in Singapore yesterday, 6th November 2007. This will effectively create more than 200 tech jobs for the IT job market in Singapore.

The HQ, at Neil Road, will serve the global market excluding US and Canada. It will serve as Paypal’s development center where products and new features for the payment service will be done.

It is predicted that the international online payment business will be bigger than its North American market by next year as more and more people goes online to make purchases and transfer money. Currently, there are more than 164 million Paypal accounts in the world with $17.4 billion in transactions in the third quarter of this year alone.

Yet again this shows that the Singapore Government has done a great job for making Singapore the number choice for many foreign companies to choose Singapore as their regional and international headquarters.

I used to hike a lot when I was in secondary school. My friends and I went hiking at least once a week. At time time we wore only normal shoes or cheap soccer boots. It’s difficult to attempt challenging routes most of the time even though we always make it to the end point. We don’t have proper hiking boots.

Recalling those times, I went online to search for hiking boots and come across this website which sells all kinds of boot such as hiking boots and hunting boots. I recommend that you take a look at the website if you were searching for boots as a gift. The company also gives great offer gift certificate for your special ones. Any purchase of more than $100 comes with free shipping. That’s great, isn’t?

Get your boots there now!

Arsenal vs Manchester United. What a gigantic match! Free flow of attacking and possession football. Arsenal was great on the ball with their possession while Manchester United was always threatening whenever they attack. It was a missed opportunity for Manchester United to go top of the Barclays English Premier League tonight. The match ended 2-2.

Rooney opened the score right at the end of first half courtesy of great cross from Ronaldo and deflection off William Gallas. Arsenal responded immediately after the break and scored the equalizing goal through non other than Fabregas, the best EPL player at the moment.

10 minutes from time, Ronaldo put Manchester United ahead again converting Patrick Evra’s cross after he was put through by Saha’s perfect reverse pass. I thought tonight is the night for Manchester United to celebrate a win by going top of the standing but Gallas redeemed himself for United’s first goal by scoring the equalizer right at the death of the game.

DAMN IT!

Anyway, at the end of the day it was a great match to watch and a fair results for both side!
