♥ Princessa's Royal Diary ♥ - Royalty has never been so PINK!

Lookie what I've got here...

TMS forwarded the Tomorrow.sg link to me, and that's how I got to know.

Anyhow.

According to Benjamin, a couple of days ago, a man standing outside MediaCorp (which is in Singapore) filmed himself aggressively scolding a taxi driver and went on to post the above video on YouTube and MediaCorp Videos under the alias andrewteo777.

What happened next?

As "kay poh" (which means busy body) as Andrew Teo is, we are kinda "the same", but in a much lower tone of course.

Anyhow.

It didn't take long for debates to break out at HWZ forums and STOMP and, duh, comments from his YouTube post.

And, as like always, loving the "new media" news and topics, the Straits Times decided to pick up this piece of, I-wanna-be-a-hero news as well.

Time to rethink actions and, as best as possible, amend the damages?

The "righteous citizen" soon realize that it wasn't looking too good for him. I guess with that in mind, he decided to pull his video from YouTube, in fact he removed his whole YouTube Channel.

Wahahaha. So much for hero, feel more like zero. But at least he got his 3 minutes 36 seconds of fame?

Too bad mister, you know what "downloading" means?

Yes! Other members of the community downloaded his video and seeded it to other sites including TinyPic and back on YouTube.

So much for "the end" of the episode...

Here's something else that is rather interesting that Benjamin brought to the floor.

Who is Andrew Teo?

1. According to his YouTube Channel, he's 42 years old, has kids. At least videos of kids and Christian stuff.

2. So if his real name is Andrew Teo, 42, could he be the same Andrew Teo who tried to protest against violence in Burma? If you look at the comments on this story, the "real" Andrew Teo is 42 too.

3. So if he is the same guy, then we also know that he's "a graduate student at the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy and telecommunications director by profession".

Benjamin says:

Of course this could be a pure coincidence and I'm totally wrong. You decide. But if it is true, then this is also a case of dangerous and damaged reputation for a well qualified and reputable person in our society. (I'm looking at this from a PR point of view obviously)

But if you take 1 + 1... I shall not comment further. ;x

Anyhow.

This is totally ridiculous!

I can't believe people would go to such extend. It's sooo totally embarrassing!

Hmmm... Imagine if one fine day I start "teaching" my mum to blog and she starts blabbering off non-stop online and/or even buys a video cam and starts YouTube-ing or whatever.

Wahahaha. That'd totally be THE DAY!
