Bloggers who used music MUST PAY?!!!
I read in THE NEW PAPER, "Bloggers may soon need to cough up at least S$1000 if they want to play copyrighted music on their websites."
Hmm, is my background (Cherish by AiOtsuka, a Japanese female singer) a copyrighted?? *thinking* If it is, gonna change one which isnt copyrighted.
Continued frm da NEW PAPER, "While no one has been sued yet, 'massive educational efforts' will be launched to get bloggers to sign up." *eyes drooling*

Forget abt tat a while. Now a quick update abt my new work. Today is my 3rd day. So far so good. I repair all da torn pages of those old books very 'cantik', as wat my teacher said to me. *smilez* Yup, I am still a trainee and each of us r assigned to a trainer. My trainer has been working for NATIONAL ARCHIVES since 1968!!! Tat long huh? Tat was y she trained me speaking in malay. I dun mind. She is very organised, tidy, clean and neat lady.. watever she has trained me and when it was my turn to do da same thing she had trained me, she will always say, "bikin cantik cantik ok.." I obliged.
Readers.. it is true tat she has worked in National Archives since 1968.. Really! No joke! Tats wat I heard frm da rest. If ur knwledge of history is limited knwledge, read more abt da History of NATIONAL ARCHIVES.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Established by an act of parliament in 1968, the National Archives of Singapore (NAS) was first known as the National Archives and Records Centre (NARC). In 1979, with the addition of the Oral History Department, the National Archives was renamed the National Archives and Oral History Department. NAS is an institution under the National Heritage Board, which was instituted in 1993.
During the early years of operation, NAS was housed at several different locations BEFORE it found a permanent home at 1 Canning Rise, the former site of the Anglo-Chinese Primary School.
