Why graffiti?
Why graffiti? Graffiti is part of vandilising the government’s property and is an inappropriate way to express your feelings. These acts are not only dirtying public places but also sometimes bringing misconception and misinterpretation from public viewers. VanceTan.com covers the photographs taken during a visit to the residential area (close to the footbal field) where KB people often jog.

Health Talk with Vance Tan: Acne not just teens!
Although it seems to be a teenage problem during puberty, acne surely begins there, but it may persist till a person reaches maturity. Most of the teenagers, will surely develop acne problems, when examined closely, especially during events of stressed out situations like having an examination.
Usually, acnes are caused by the changing and fluctuating amount of hormones in a teenager’s body, causing the skin to get oily and sometimes sticky. Under certain conditions, the sebaceous glands of the skin secretes too much oily substances to prevent over-evaporation of the skin surface water. However, an increase in the bacteria causing acne may develop a type of fungus as time delays.
Such blockages may also cause the development and appearance of small black and white pores often commonly known as black heads and white heads, developing over the nose or surfaces of the cheeks. These “heads” are easily removed by mechanical methods, needling it out using a blackhead remover or even the stickers available at your nearest pharmacy.
To avoid such occurrences of acnes, blackheads and whiteheads, teens should establish a routine of cleansing the faces to ensure that dirt does not clog the minute pores of their faces. As an addition to that, parents could also purchase sebum regulating ointments or medications to regulate the oiliness of the skin.
