Due to the current earthquake there has been a massive deflation that cause the prices of goods to drop rapidly. Experts have found out how this has occurred.
Due to the earthquake, many people were worried about tsunami, thus hide in their water proof houses. However, due to their inability to keep track of time, they lost count of time and ended up staying in their house for a long time. This caused a decrease in the number of people leaving their houses to buy goods from shops, causing a large surplus of goods. Thus, the price of goods decreased sharply as the SML Dollar gain muscle. This caused the deflation.
Some of the goods that were affected by the deflation are listed below:
-Bak kwa, price drop from SML$1000 to SML$100
-Eggs, rice drop from SML$0.01 to SML$0.005
-Hair Spray, price drop from SML$913 to SML$315
-Bowling balls, price drop from SML$99999 to SML$11
-Bowling Pins, price drop from SML$99 to SML$ 1.10
The crook FCC have also disappeared and escaped. The SML Police force, SML Rangers, Ninja, SML Samurai, SML Armed forced and students of Penguin JC have all banded together to look for him. Residents are adviced to eatch out for this crook and alarm the SMLP if you see him. He is extremely candycious and you are adviced not to give him candy. If you see him, please call 1800-555-5555555555.

A violent earthquake hit SML Land today. This quake, measuring 10.5, is said to be centred at the SML Square. However, the 100m tall flag pole bearing the SML Flag was not shaken. The flag did not even sway. However, a few buildings surrounding the SML Square were badly damaged and had to be blasted down to prevent accidents from happening.
The damaged buildings include:
1) Penguin JC toilet block
2) SML Jail Block (the one holding FCC)
3) SML Airport control station #100
4) SML Zoo block that hold the cocroaches for display
5) SML Beach sand castles
Also, a tsunami was triggered by the earthquake. However, the waves measuring 100m in height were frozen by a gust of icy wind from the North, thus it did not cause any serious damage except flooding the whole underground subway system.
A damage report indicated that a total of 234 buildings were damaged throughout the disaster. FCC is reported missing and presumed buried alive by rubble of the Penjuin JC toilet block. 1000000000 roaches were also reported missing from the SML Zoo and are presumed to be some where in SML Land. SML residents are adviced to capture the roaches and return them back to SML Zoo.
Currently, emergency repair workers are working on the SML Beach 24/7 to rebuild and repair the sand castles for the World Sand Castle Destroying Competition that is going to be held next month.

AngPao 2008
SML Land
Due to the improvement in economy yesterday in SML Land, the SML government JAP(Jaguar Action Party) has come up with the AngPao 2008 project. In this project, all residents og SML Land, be it the poor, rich, not poor not rich; clever, stupid, not clever not stupid; lame, not lame, not lame but not not lame; enthu, wet-blankets, not enthu but not AP; young, old, not young not old... ... will all be receiving AngPaos from the JAP government. However, the amount given to each person will differ, depending on how much the person has contributed to the economy of SML Land.
For example, the lame, enthu people will receive more money as compared to the not lame and AP type of people. Clever people and stupid people will receive more money that the not clever and not stupid type of people. The age of the person will not affect how much he will receive.
SML reporters found out from the residents that most were very happy with project AngPao 2008. An old aunty named OlAnTee told us :"I very happy... .. i received SML$1000000000000000000 from the government leh. Now i can go buy what ever i want to buy now."
Another person, Mr EnthuKia told us :" Because I am very enthu, the government has awarded me with SML$100000000000000000000, this money has spurred me to be more enthu. Long Live JAP!!!!!"
However, there were some that were unhappy with this project. A person named Mr UnAnnToo told us :" The government not fair de, I only vandalise public property ma, and i not very enthu de. Some more I never break the law the, I just smoke in air-con room, bus, train, ship, and plane only ma. And I just go rob bank once or twice only. The the goverment never give me a nice AngPao. They just give me a SML$-1000000000000000000000000000 AngPao. This is not enough, the number is so small!!! I dun like the government!!!"
However, what ever you may think of the government for launching project AngPao 2008, most of you will be happy with what you have received form the government.

A group of students were seen making paper stars in Penguin JC yesterday. If is found out that this group of students actually belonged to a secret wildlife conservation club called the CEO (Conserve Earth Organisation). They were making stars to give to people so that they will be more aware of the presences of sponges in the Earth's sea and help protect them.
"Patrick the Starfish is a good friend of SpongeBob, thus by making stars, we hope that people will become more aware of sponges." a student told our reporters," we will also give dried sponges to the people we give the stars to."
However, the principal of penguin JC has told our reporters that people should not listen to these students. They should not support the senseless killing of sponges because it will result in a shortage of sponges. A shortage of sponges will cause a rise in price of sponge, thus a drop in quantity demanded for sponges. This will in turn cause a rise in demand for toy sponges which can be a substitude for sponges.
However, he did not state why he opposed the rise in demand for toy sponge. Thus, our reporter rate his reason as unreliable. Anyway, SML Times hope you will help in conserving nature for no apparent reason.

Large groups of students dressed in a variety of uniforms were seen migrating from one JC to another JC in SML Land today. Even though it was officially a school day, the students did not seem to care. According to SML Experts say this action of openly escaping lesson is called 'PONNING".
But why have so many people chosen to 'pon'? When our reporters approached the students, they told us that they have ponned because they have just received their JAE (Jaguar Action Exercise) results. Some of them were not satisfied with their results and wanted to appeal to the JC of their choice.
However, there are people with other stories. Some students have ponned simply because they were not going to stay in the JC they were currently in, so it does not matter if they stay or not. Also, some have ponned JC because they were not aiming to go to the JC at all. They have instead put down polytechnies for their first eleven choices and a JC for their last choice. In the end they made it to the JC.
However, what ever your results for the JAE maybe, please remember... ... Penguin JC will always welcome you, if you become sick and tired of you current JC, please, come Penguin JC.

Anti eating Vege CampaignHumans have been eating vegetables for a very long time. They have even attacked vegetables openly by becoming vegetarians and eat only vegetables. What they do not realise is that the vegetables also have life. Just because they keep silent does not mean they feel no pain! They can feel pain too, just like the animals. Thus an anti eating vege campaign will be held to protest about people killing the vegetable. You either join campaign because you believe that eating meat and vegetable will cause pain to those you eat and start eating non-organic food, or you eat your meat and vegetable and forget their pain.

Scientists in SML Land have discovered 2 new species of flowers!
The first flower is named forget-me-forever. A single whiff from this flower will make you forget everything that happened from the past 1 hour! Unfortunately, the scientists were unable to record the scent of this flower as they kept forgetting after they smelled it. (This is also why it took years before they finaly realised they had discovered a new flower.)
The 2nd species is knock-me-out a.k.a the Hammer. The sap produced by this flower evaporates quickly, causing a big headache to anyone who inhales it. Long term exposure can lead to a coma.
Anyone who wants to order these new flowers can contact the SML Lab or pick them in the forest across the river that surrounds SML Land. (which illegal immigrants regularly swim across) Just make sure you bring a gas mask and an oxygen tank.

A strange phenomena was observed happening in SML Land today. Both involved people singing.
The first was seen when a group of people exited from Charlie's home. A SHORT girl in the group began to sing some weird song madly, den another slightly not so short, but a lot wider girl started to sing with her. This duo were observed to sing when they were crossing an overhead bridge too. It is theorized that they thought they were world infamous pop stars and they were holding a concert.
The second happened along a very long walk way. A group of people, lead bu two person called LaoAnTea and LaoUnKou were seen (and heard) leading the group singing a song. The lyrics is as follow:
One dollar, one dollar.
Hello one dollar.
Aunty, uncle, xiao di, xiao mei,
Bang1 wo2 mai3 tissue paper,
Hao3 Ma1???
chorus:Tissue paper one dollar,
tissue paper one dollar.
One dollar, one dollar.
Bye bye one dollar.
Aunty, uncle, xiao di, xiao mei.
All buy my tissue paper le.
Thank You!!
*chorus*One dollar, one dollar.
I earned one dollar.
Now can go buy,
More tissue paper to sell.
*chorus*Police are still investigating how this phenomena has happened. However, scientists say that the singing may be harmful to the public as the noise may cause people to be distracted and waste bang into a wall. The public is advised to stay away form the two girls who think they are infamous pop stars.

As you gather with your family to have a peaceful and happy reunion dinner, have you ever thought how this was possible? SML Times takes you on a journey to expose the unsung heroes who keep SML Land safe and working.
Peace KeepingSML Armed Force (SMLAF)This is a 24/7/365 force that keeps SML Land safe from foreign invasions. The soldiers work hard day and night, to deter any foes from taking our happiness. The SML Armed force have took part in the many wars organised to defeat several of the major foes that haunted SML Land, such as the evil SML that carried a demonic baby who attacked SML Land more that 2 years ago. The SMLAF has worked with numerous groups including the RaVe Association of Teachers (RAT), Extreme Ghoust Busters (EGB) and the Yifan in fighting off the Demonic baby.
SML Rangers (SMLR)This group has been put up last year around september (or at least i tink is Sep). They have fought all sorts of foes, such the MojojojoAce and the Fashion Candy Cane (FCC). Five rangers were almost killed when they were trapped in FCC's molten candy. But eventually, they got free and defeated FCC with the help of SML Ninja and SML Samurai.
SML Ninja and SamuraiThis two heros were introduced after FCC's attack last december. They played a crucial role in the defeat and the peace keeping. Also, if it was not for them, SML Land could never have been able to celebrate a Happy New Year on 1st January this year.
RaVe Association of Teachers (RAT)This group of people included Charlie, OLY, KGL, EEK, LOOK, CTC, Bose and several other teachers, who have help fight against the Demonic Baby two years ago. They have also played a crucial role in nuturing the SML Reporters and teaching them how to write proper newspaper articles. If it was not for them, SML Times won't have been created. (really it wun be created, cos if no teacher, will not have sian ppl to come up with SML Times)
SMLock HolmesA famous detective who dedicated his life in solving crime and mystries that happen in SML Land. The most recentwas to find out the real identity of SHIM, who happen to be an alien from outer space whom decided to migrate to SML Land.

The Bank has also come up with the special Atm machines which deter robbers and the special Atm card which allow you to withdraw unlimited amount of money.
SML TempleThis temple offers to help you create lucky amulets which help you to add at least two points to your L1R5.

A man was seen throwing money out of his window today. Experts estimate he threw about SML$88888888888888888888888 x 888888888888888888888. This man, who wish to be known as Charlie, was interviewed by SML Times reporter today.
'I recently bought 888888888888888888888 AngPaos to give my students when they visite me during Chinese New Year (CNY). However, when i decided to put money into the AngPaos, i found SML$88888888888888888888888 in each of them. I did not need this money, so I threw them away,' Charlie told our reporters.
If you wish to pick up some of the thrown cash, do visite Charlie's void deck soon before all the money is taken away.
Anyway, SML Times wish all reporters a Happy Chinese New Year:)))))))))

There have been two seperate cases of robbery committed today in SML Land.
The first robbery happened at SML Bank, where 888888888888888888888 AngPaos containing SML$88888888888888888888888 each were stolen by a man armed with an axe. The man was wearing a scouts uniform, with the words CHARLIE printed at the back. He took the AngPaos and ran into a waiting get away gorilla. There have been no clue to where he has escaped to. Cleaners have been hired to sweep away a trail of gorilla hair the lead all the way to where CHARLIE has went to.
It is understood that the AngPaos were orginally for the ChaiShenYe, who will be distributing the AngBaos to the residents of SML Land. However, they are lost now.
The second case happened at the SML Supermarket, where 888888888888888888 oranges were stolen from the orange trees for sale in the supermarket. This time, the robber was a girl named MONICA, who was armed with a hand to touch people. She also used the hand to pluck the oranges. However, the fresh and good quialty oranges for sale beside the trees were untouched. Again, there was no lead for the police. Cleaners were agained hired to rub off the orange juice splashed onto the ground, which lead all the way to MONICA's home.
The orange trees for sale were orginally to be sold so that the buyers can pluck off the oranges.
"These robbers so bo liao. Rob the shops le still muz leave the trails for me to clean," a cleaner who has been hired to clean both crime scenes told our reporters.
SML Police spokesman told our reporters that they have not got a single clue to why the AngPaos and Oranges were stolen. However, a possible situation is that the AngPaos and oranges were taken so that CHARLIE can give them to his students who will be visiting him during Chinese New Year.

A group of monsters were spotted near the outskirts of the SML Jungle last week. According to SML Zoologists, this group of monsters are called Unknowns, an unknown species of monster. They consists of a large eye, and string-like body that vary in shape. According to their shape, the unknowns have been called unknown fiaz, unknown psyga, unknown delta, unknown riot trooper, unknown kiaxer, unknown orga, unknown alpha, unknown beta, unknown gamma, unknown dota, unknown pi and unknown sigma. It is thought there will also be other kinds of unknown that are out there in the SML Jungle unknown to us. It is still unknown as to why this group of unknowns are here, but for some unknown reasons, the unknowns have already visited SML Land several times and are thought to have lived in SML Jungle for millions of years. A professional photo taker has taken this picture of the unknowns, and the names have been put beside each unknown's name.
