    Haha! I know!
    HGW tissue packs with a message to discourage "Chope-ing" to be distributed at Raffles Place and Suntec City.
    Can go along the line of "This seat is free for all" on both sides!

    if they wanna chope seat, wanna have space reserved... then maybe they should pay a lil more n get their personal space at restaurant... or if not, somewhere like marché or villagé

    I can't say that this is a safe practice any more, with all the kidnappings that happened, remember Huang Na?

    i'm sure the kidnapper would be in for a tough time... cos he/she's gotta pay a high price to pacify the hungry kid with food.
    p.s.: kids these days have big appetite.

    Dude, this isn't funny at all, sorry.
    You watched too much comedies to think kidnappers actually treat their captives nicely.
    They don't kidnap for ransom any more. More likely for their perversions.
    And for all the recent kidnapping cases, the victims were brutally mutilated.
    I don't think their captives' welfare was ever on their twisted minds.

    SY, no need to turn on the heat leh.... it was a casual remark. (in case u didnt know, kidnapping in sg is punishable by death)

    as for huang na's case, the ppl at the vege wholesale mkt attest that the little gal loitered all over the place, as though she never had a care giver (needless to say, her mom who's too busy to babysit her own kid). while the lil gal used to be quite acquainted with the "assailant" - ah hao. (ah hao was acquainted w huang na's mom too)

    needless to say, kids these days arent as gullible & stupid as generations back. candy treats wont suffice to lure them anymore..... not unless there's some hi-tech gadget that can really entice, the likes of; PSP, nintendo... etc

    now back to the thread topic of "chop-ing" seats... we're lamenting the lame methods that sgporeans employ to reserve seats in public makan places.

    some use tissue, some use umbrellas, some use cigarette box... now, also witnessed, using kid....... what else?

    Oh yah, overheard from some Mainland Chinese on this.
    They said they were "impressed with the service of the food court for providing tissue packs for their cleanliness"

    Next time in town area lunchtime, maybe I will sweep off those tissue packs on the tables and wait for conflict to happen...

    LOL... complimentary tissue paper at foodcourt ROFL... but then again, foodcourts in BKK, thailand provide complimentary tissue & toothpicks. (wiping mouth after ever bite seems to be a norm/culture there).
    needless to say, my thai counterparts often frown when they find tissue & toothpicks inaccessible when they're here.

    Posted By: caniggia"chop seat", for those who use their tissue paper to chop... too bad, i take it as they're sponsoring me tissue paper in case my meal gets messy.

    cos if ppl can claim that its legitimate to use tissue paper to chop seat, then my answer to them would be:

    me: sorry, but i believe u're in my seat
    stranger: sorry, i chop the seat using my tissue paper already
    me: lidat also counted? i dun see your name on the tissue paper
    stranger: yes, its mine & my frens can attest
    me: bollocks to u... and i think u made a mistake....
    stranger: what mistake?
    me: u're sitting on my booger~!~! dont believe can use DNA to test.:devil:


    Next time, just tell the fellow that you already farted there earlier and since the smell has disappated it means that you also chop all the seats around the area.
