28 Mar 05 Grammatical error or clever advertising?

I found this sign outside a travel agent’s in Singapore. My “within” is forever in love with Bali.

   Hi Lancerlord, I found it near Arab street. Kaizer, even though my without is staying put at the moment, the within wanders. And with all these cheap airfares, it is very hard to keep the without from running away too.

   I think you should post this entry under Singapore, not under Indonesia category.

   Yes, the phenomenon of using such language is called Singlish (Singapore + English). I think Indonesian people has better knowledge about English language. I am 100% Indonesian
