Interesting facts:

• Of the 20,775 marriages involving at least one citizen, 8,086 Singaporeans were hitched to non-citizen spouses. Of the 8,086 people, 6,200 were men and 1,886 were women.
  
• Close to 90 per cent of these non-citizen spouses last year were from Asia.

So here I'm sitting in the office in Tokyo, when suddenly the building starts to shake. An earthquake! But only a small one, after a few seconds it was over.
