Ring my "bel"?

Date: 29 Nov 2015
Time: 0830 hrs
Place: Traffic junction of Middle Road and Victoria Street, Bugis Junction side

A teenaged Malay boy wearing his cap backwards, with three other younger boys (8 to 10 years old?), intercepted me as I was jogging and asked, "Bel, where is the Bras Basah Complex?" I pointed him to the National Library building and told him it was the building behind that. He didn't quite believe me. As I started jogging across the road he followed me for a bit and I had to point out Bras Basah Complex again and tell him to go the other way.
