1. Case Study On Burpple
Case study on burpple: A social food recommendation startup Introduction Launched on May 9 2012, Burpple, a
Singapore–based social food guide, received popular support and quickly became one of Asia's leading food
recommendation startup. Burpple has hence been awarded the Top 100 Startups of Asia by Open Web Asia 2012
and is currently being used in over 115 countries around the world. Background This innovation of Burpple
came about with Elisha Ong and Dixon Chan, who went on a year–long overseas entrepreneurial internship
programme with NUS Overseas Colleges. Hesitant over menu choices, they seeked online reviews and friends'
recommendations and the dining experience reaffirmed the reliability of such recommendations, which

Designing for Customers Local business engagement and business expansion The prior emphasis on user
engagement has build its user community with over 200,000 monthly users, which provides a large consumer
base to attract food businesses to collaborate with Burpple. As such, Burpple gained its revenue by setting up a
local business owners network, which signed up more than 200 local food business owners to assist in
developing their businesses. One way in which Burpple has done so is through customization of the application
to publicize the restaurants' menu choices and promotions to the existing user community, which allows
companies to gain ownership of a marketing tool at more affordable cost with higher chance of outreaching to
the consumers. Summary From a simple daily life problem of requiring good food recommendations, Burpple, a
successful startup has been developed. Precise steps taken in its development and commercialisation and the
good management of user and customer based developments has aided in its rapid growth. In a market expected
to thrive well on further advanced smartphone technology, Burpple can be seen to do well if it continues to

3. The Censorship Of Singapore ( Mda )
The practise of censorship – the restriction of ideas, action or image through the control of the media or any
other medium of expression. Censorship should be practised sensibly so that it will not restrict the development
and expression of new ideas while ensuring that social and political harmony is assured. Censorship plays a vital
role in maintaining the morals of its society and creating an economically dynamic, socially cohesive and
culturally vibrant nation. (N.A, N.D) The press exert a significant influence on the public and is partly
responsible for the views and values that many hold. Hence, it should be responsible with what it put forth to the
public. Singapore has gradually moved from film censorship to film classification and now to the focus on
media literacy. Media Authority of Singapore (MDA) plays a significant role in regulating and conducting
matters pertaining to the media. It is guided by legislation/acts such as Media Development Authority of
Singapore Act, code of practice and guideline to comply and enforce the entities. In this term paper, we will
discuss how the media handle censorship and classification related matters as well as reviewing the Films
Appeal Committee under the films act policy. In this regard, recommendations will also be given on how to
improve the clause.
The media environment has undergone major changes, driven largely by the forces of technology, media
convergence and globalisation. (Media Development Authority, 2014) As

Its stores are currently sprawled across 347,293 sf of leased retail space. 27 years track record. Sheng Siong's
origins can be traced back to 1985, when founder and current Group CEO, Mr Lim Eng Hock bought over
troubled convenience store, SAVEWELL, using S$300k loaned from his father. Between 1985 and 1999,
expansion had been slow with just four stores. Then, between 2000 to 2005, the Group expanded at a more
aggressive pace, adding 13 stores during the period. In 2009, it announced plans to build its current headquarters

7. The Grocery Store
Who would have thought that by opening up a single grocery store in the early 1900s, it would give the ability
for someone to open up over 60 more in less than ten years. In today's business market, it is nearly impossible to
open up 60 grocery stores in Toronto in less than 10 years. The reason being is that the grocery retail industry is
now becoming or has become an Oligopoly. When one is walking through the streets of Canada looking at
places to shop for groceries, one may stumble across several options of grocery stores to choose from. Often
people question whether to buy their groceries either at No frills, Fortinos, Real supermarket or Loblaws. For
many, the question is simply answered by choosing the store nearest to the comfort of their home. Over time,
customers become loyal to the store for many different reasons, it often has to do with the experience offered at
a certain chain and loyalty programs. Many of these loyal customers will not buy from other supermarkets
unless they are away from home where their preferable store is not convenient. Not every Canadian customer is
aware that Loblaw Companies Limited, the single largest Canadian food retailer owns many of the different
supermarkets out there. This paper will prove that the Loblaw Companies Limited has is constantly trying new
things in order to maintain and improve success and will also be outlining the history, organizational structure,
target market, store design and the retail strategy of the company.

Note: – At the start of the analysis we used diamond theory by Prof. Michael Porter to answer the million dollar
question? Should Gold's Gym concentrate expanding across borders if so? If so, does it have the necessary
competencies to achieve that?
We have concentrated more on political analysis because of the novelty of the operation.
Political/Legal Analysis
1. Political Stability
Political uncertainty/instability is considered an investor's worst nightmare. This influences the Foreign Direct
Investment (FDI) by companies in to a particular country.
10. With permission from Price Waterhouse Coopers (PWC), we used Political Hotspots Map software (created by
PWC in collaboration with Eurasia Group) to identify the political risks of a country.

Singapore received a score of 6/6 with a high political stability rating. Malaysia received a score of 3/6 with a
medium–low political stability rating due to recent political uncertainties. Indonesia received a score of 2/6 with
low political stability rating.
Political stability results in extension of government policies which enable companies to predict and adapt to the

most importantly, the theories and strategies in ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
2.4 Current Promotion
Currently, due to the raise of Certificate of Entitlement, Mazda is offering a SGD$5000 cash rebate when
consumers buy a RX8. Their main objective now is to gain a higher market share. Using the scare tactics, they
are giving a deadline for this promotion to end, urging consumers to enjoy this offer while other dealers are only
giving a much lower cash rebate of SGD$3,000 to SGD$4,000. As they are not going high key this time, they
are using below the line advertising like giving out of flyers and placement of posters in their showroom.
3.0 RECOMMENDED TARGET MARKET
3.1 Geographical Traits
The proposed new target market is strategically located locally in Singapore. The proposed promotion will reach
the masses of geographically dispersed buyers locally. As Singapore is a small country by itself without big
towns like some European countries, we will not be further segmenting the island geographically.
3.2 Demographic Traits
For the Mazda RX8, the company has always been targeting adults in the Changing Age Group, aged 20 to 34,
locally. We will be using the Market Development Strategy, which is to sell an existing product to a new market.
The proposed new market to target is the Middle Age Mature Consumers in the male segment, who are between

2.4 Languages As I have already mentioned, Singapore has four official languages: English, Tamil, Mandarin
and Malay. It was so historically formed that the official language of Singapore is Malay and the national
anthem is also written in Malay language. English is the administration language of Singapore and it is mainly
British English, but also contain some American English influences. English remains the first language medium
in schools and colleges of the country, and is also the most widespread language in the literature. All signs and
official publications are written in English, but there are also versions translated into other official languages.
But the population doesn't speak English, but so–called Singlish with Creole characteristics, Chinese dialects,
and Indian and Malay languages. 2.5 Culture To describe the culture of the country in the full extent, it is
necessary to investigate into its cuisine, media, performing arts, sports and recreation, as well as into its
architectural heritage. Singapore cuisine is the bright example of cultural diffusion and diversity of the country,
and Indian, Malay, Chinese and Tamil influences can be observed. Local people enjoy eating mee poh, bak chor

Gender & Diversity Plan and Policies
When talking about equality opportunities implemented by companies, we can make a differentiation between
two different models, the liberal and the radical one.
The liberal model, described by Jewson and Mason, is emphasized on a philosophy of "sameness", where
people should have access to and be assessed within the workplace as individuals, regardless of social category.
In the other hand, the radical approach is focused on a "positive discrimination" where employment practices
are deliberately manipulated in order to obtain a fair distribution of those disadvantaged groups in the
workplace, and it is also focused in achieving not only equality of opportunity but also equality of outcome. ...

Background: Two staff are seen carrying the old woman and throwing her onto her bed. (YouTube) A nursing
home along Braddell Road has been suspended from admitting new patients with effect from 12 April after a
patient was reported to have been mistreated. The incident at Nightingale Nursing Home came to light after a
video of a patient being mistreated was sent to local broadcaster Mediacorp. The footage was shot by a hidden
camera on a patient's bedside. In the video, an elderly woman patient is seen sitting stark naked beside a bed
with the room ceiling fans on. She is then picked up by two hospital staff and thrown onto a bed, before a staff
is shown slapping her on her mouth when she wailed in pain. Reports say the patient has been a resident there
for four years and is suffering from stroke. The Ministry of Health (MOH) said it has suspended the nursing
home from admitting new patients from 12 April until further notice. The nursing home has also disciplined the
staff involved and put in place additional measures such as ward rounds by senior staff, regular meetings with
patients and their family members, and management check on staff conduct and patients In a statement to

The film Tanjong Rhu by Boo Junfeng is a recount of the notorious arrest of twelve gay men in an entrapment
exercise in 1993. Being a conservative society, Singapore has meted out harsh punishments against the
Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals and Transgender (LGBT) community. 'Singaporeans are [also] disallowed from even
speaking in public places about homosexual–related issues" (Oswin, 2008). This essay not only seeks to analyze
this film, but also, use the Gramscian theory of hegemony to examine the challenges faced by the Singapore
state government in promoting their ideas of a heteronormative family.

sunglasses were inspired by the experience of the cities she loved and have been to. For now, there is the Tokyo,

Since Blanc & Eclare is a premium fashion line, the costs of the products are definitely pricier. Even without
any financial crisis, not many people are able to afford them and with the presence of economic crashes, the
situation will definitely worsen. Previously, the sales of Blanc & Eclare depended solely on Jessica Jung's fans
or customers with higher income. Blanc & Eclare sells products of a better quality, however it is not a need, it is
more of a want. Thus, Jessica Jung's fans might not have the ability to continue buying the products. It is only
suitable for customers who earn more and have higher disposable income to spend on premium goods. When

Breweries. In October 1932, Singapore's first lager, Tiger Beer, was presented.
Malayan Breweries had its name changed to Asia Pacific Breweries (APB) in year 1990 in order to better mirror
the developing regionalization of its business intrigues. Today, APB's portfolio includes more than 40 lager
brands and variations and it is backed by 28 breweries in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia,
China, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Sri Lanka and India.

Television is a platform that is highly influential as it reaches out to the mass and allows Tiger Beer to do profile
targeting by selecting the specific time slots to run their commercials when most of their targeted audience are
viewing. Television as an advertising tool has strong visual representation. According to statistics, 57% of
consumers say that product videos make them more confident in a purchase and less likely to return an item, up
from 52% a year ago. (MediaPost, 2013) In commemoration of Singapore's 50th birthday (SG50), Tiger Beer's
latest campaign did by advertising agency BBDO Singapore has released the first Tiger Beer can from 1965
which was the same year Singapore gained independence.
Tiger Beer pulled off a publicity stunt using Singapore's local famous delicacy – chicken rice – to gain brand
awareness in a humorous and captivating way. Many viewers are sparked with interest in the origins of chicken
rice. Advertising agency BBDO Singapore used this occasion to associate Singapore and Tiger Beer together as
a home brand. As this campaign is based in Singapore, Tiger Beer wants to give local customers and consumers
a sense of belonging. Singaporeans who are patriotic are more inclined to purchase this limited edition beer can

The use of the ingredients such as VitaNiacin which contains Vitamin B3, sunscreen protection and Vitamin E
that is not found in the competitors' (Lisa S, 2013), are contained in Olay Total Effects. This served as the key
differentiation and advantage to Olay Total Effects whereby consumers just have to spend a fixed amount for a 7
in 1 product compared to competitor's, which would require them to buy two or more products to combat the
same signs of aging. There is a gap in a low benefits and high price section. As the consumers tend to be more
knowledgeable and price conscious, they would not want to pay a high price for a low quality product that does
not satisfies their needs and wants. In addition, it is difficult and costly for company to come out with a high

'Teenagers can impact the lives of the elderly.' What are your views? Can the self–obsessed, wi–fi possessed
teenagers of today actually impact the lives of the elderly from a different generation? Many of you might think
no, teenagers are still young and not sensible enough to handle big tasks, let alone impact the lives of others but
let's not jump to conclusions. Through the course of this essay I will be discussing whether teenagers can impact
the lives of the elderly, positively or negatively. Hundreds of thousands of elderly people are lonely and cut off
from society in the UK and 5 million older people say the television is their main form of company but these
tech–savvy teenagers can introduce the elderly to technology and social media to keep in touch with friends and
family members. By using a computer,tablet or smartphone, the elderly can send emails and share photographs
with their friends and family. Services like Skype, FaceTime and Viber enable the elderly to have free video
chats with their contacts. The elderly can also make new friends online or reconnect with their old ones through
social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter. The youth these days are much more ambitious and ... Show

E.g. Fox news channel headed by Republican supporters often portray Democrats in a negative light. Fox's
anchorman compared the logo of the recent nuclear technology forums, approved by President Obama, with the
Muslim crescent, accusing Obama of having Muslim inclinations. The logo, in fact, was a representation of the

regulations and censorship procedures on media put in place by the Iranian government in the lead–up to the

as to possible discrepancies in the re–election of President Ahmadinejad. When the media has so many other

Job satisfaction, the most widely studied work attitude, is then discussed. We look at job satisfaction among
Canadians, the effects of job satisfaction on work behaviour, and new findings regarding the relationship
between job satisfaction and employee performance and customer satisfaction. The next section provides an
overview of organizational commitment, including the types of commitment, consequences of commitment, and
ways to build affective commitment. Organizational commitment is strongly influenced by trust and the
psychological contract, so the final section of this chapter looks at the meaning and elements of both concepts.

Singapore's media sector has posted a combined growth rate of 6.8 per cent between year 1997 and 2008. The
following year, the media industry has provided $2.3 billion returns to the nation's economy as well as $6.4
billion revenue in value added. The media industry has employed about 66,000 employees. Industries such as
television broadcast and production, film, publishing and printing, interactive and digital media and music make
up the media sector in Singapore. The Media Development Authority aids the growth of Singapore's media
sector. This is accomplished by stimulating a favorable business environment by regulating its policies that
increases ventures as well as innovation. This process delivers more content selections for end users. Through a
dual method of co–regulation and discussions, the Media Development Authority depresses blockades which
enables market access as well as industry growth. This also guarantees that Singaporeans continue to have

2. Is there democracy in Singapore?
What is Democracy?
Singapore has been recognized as a representative democratic state since August 1965. However, to examine if
Singapore is in fact democratic, we need to first define the word "democracy" and its parameters. The word
originated from M.Fr democratis in the 1570s, with 'demo' referring to common people and 'cratie' to rule of
strength. Therefore, by definition, Singapore can be classified as a democratic country due to the fair elections
which enable her people to choose their government.
"Democracy is the worst form of government, except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to
time", Churchill words immortalize democracy as the way to go, but there is not one ... Show more content on

Further, the time period between each General Election in Singapore is also relatively longer than the other
democratic states, such as the Unite States, where elections are held consistently every four years. The
announcement of the election dates are also only released just before the election itself. This inflexibility in the
political system is detrimental to the opposition parties and also place severe restrictions on the citizens in terms
of their rights to decide when to have an election.
Chief reasons for the PAP's continued dominance
The PAP's ability to maintain its hegemony till date can be attributed to two main reasons, firstly, the PAP has
been introducing schemes in the electorate system to suppress the opposition and secondly, the PAP's control
over the grassroots organizations have established the required link between itself and the citizens.
Nominated Member of Parliament (NMP)
As mentioned earlier, the NMP scheme has been employed by the PAP to function as an institution to prevent
potential opposition by taking the talented and qualified individual inside their ranks, thus greatly limiting the
pool of talent for the opposition right from the onset. Quoting Bilver Singh,"by bringing these talents into the
political system in a safe and non–threatening manner, the PAP is effectively denying the oppositional forces the
possibility of recruiting these talents into their ranks." Although

As evidenced by the figures mentioned earlier, enjoying television shows were largely a communal affair
between the 60s and 80s. As it progressed from being an activity enjoyed as a community (in community
centres) to being an activity enjoyed with one's family (at home), we see a shift in viewing habits, as television
watching gradually became a more personal activity, as the average amount of people which the average person
viewed television with became smaller.
The number of channels available for viewing also increased, thus granting greater autonomy to television
viewers. In 1963, there were 2 channels – Channel 5 and Channel 8, which broadcasted programmes in English
and Chinese respectively. By 1985, there were four channels; Prime 12 and Premiere 12 were added, designed
to offer public service and minority language programming. Thus there was a significant increase in the variety
of choices which television viewers had at their disposal. With greater choice in selecting what they wanted to
watch, the masses definitely became less united in the programmes they watched, as there were now specific
channels to cater to a variety of needs, thus contributing to the gradual shift from collectivism to individualism
in Singapore society.
