To: Customers of Citibank Singapore Limited
Dear Customer,
I am writing to update you on the latest developments taking place in the U.S. to further strengthen Citi's capital ratios, reduce risk and increase liquidity. As of this afternoon, the U.S. Government and Citi reached an agreement to address the speculation and rumors about Citi's financial health, which led to recent stock market valuations, in spite of Citi's strong balance sheet and franchise fundamentals.
As a result of the agreement with the U.S. Treasury, the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp (FDIC), Citi significantly strengthens its key capital ratios by generating approximately US$40 billion of capital benefits. In addition, Citi's balance sheet risk has been reduced by the guarantee of over US$300 billion in assets by the U.S. Government.
Citi's Tier 1 capital ratio for the third quarter ended September 30, 2008, on a pro forma basis, for the October TARP capital injection and the new capital generated by today's announcement, subject to the Federal Reserve Board's approval, is expected to be approximately 14.8%.
Today's announcement brings even greater clarity to our overall financial standing and ability to deliver the best service to our customers. It will also provide reassurance to our customers with respect to the strength of Citi's global franchise.
Throughout these difficult markets, Citibank Singapore Ltd and Citibank N.A, Singapore Branch have maintained a stable operating income, unparalleled access to funding, extraordinary levels of liquidity and the best talent in the business. Our business is strong and our support for our customers has been unwavering. This announcement endorses our continued commitment to our customers in Singapore, as we have been doing since 1902.
We look forward to serving you in future and would like to thank you for your continued patronage.

Went for my 37wk appt this afternoon. For once, i spent less than 30mins in the clinic, probably cos i was late (should try to be late the next time too!)
Baby is 1/5 down..not engaged yet but positioning is ok so no worries. Gynae asked if i wanted VE to check dilation but i decided not to until the next visit. She suggested that she break my waters artificially if already dilated 2-3cm as she's afraid that baby might get too big for me to deliver naturally. Next appt is 2 Dec so we'll see how it goes then.
Went for the light-up lastnight. Huge disappointment! Damn sien.. But ok la, one thing off my list of to-do

Gill,
wow, pretty big..
but good weight and easy to handle when bb is born..
i'm not any much taller than you leh.. me 1.57m.. only 2cm difference..
with #1, i gave birth at week40 with bb weighing 3.5kg.. big head (37cm) but still came out naturally! hee..
i'm sure you won't have prob..
i thought it's the measurement of our pelvis that determine whether baby can come out easily?
isn't it, ah?

nashi, tell me abt it.. i totally dread walking from clarke quay to raffles place everyday for work!! Even the thought of going out for lunch makes me tired..my feet really hurts from walking.
My parents ask me to take cab to n fro office every morning, which i calculated will cost me at least $400 for the next 8 days!!! Hahahaha...worth it? I rather pay my hb to ask him to send me to work but he will not one lor..he will want to sleep that extra 30mins first

Dunno lei.. My 1st preg oso the same. Delivered my boy naturally at 37wks and doc was already threatening c-sect saying 'big baby'.. Turned out to be only 2.7kg; considered normal size. Getting a bit apprehensive now.

Emeraldbride: I love using Benefit makeup too. Heh...my faves are Benetint & Dandelion.
I also don't know how to use the Pupsik pouch. Haha...seems a bit complicated but i think watching the video will help. Phy also has it! Which colour/size did you get?
Fabbie: Don't shave!!! Keep Clarice's eyebrows if they're already in a nice shape.
2nd baby: Good luck!!! I hope you won't have to be induced.
Gerry: I also find that i can't eat much nowadays. My boy is 3kg at 37 weeks! I'm scared i can't squeeze him out if he continues to stay inside for longer...
Phy: I also cheapo mommy...if i can, wanna save the hundreds on epi but if i cannot tahan, then too...will pay for it.
My mom keeps encouraging & telling me that the pain is bearable. I don't know if i can take it...she told me to psycho myself by saying there is NO EPI available so i have no choice. Haha...

I think the massage helps a lot in regaining my figure. Each time after my "unwrapped session" my husband will drop his jaws. So i know it works damn well considering the fact that my tummy was still HUGE after delivery.
Here's my massage lady's contact. Her name is Rose, 9232 6959.
Also, coupled with all the night feedings and expressing my BM, it does helps to burn the extra fats off. Gill, no tummy flaps just a small tummy left thats why I took the 7 days package. Today will be my 6th day but looking forward to it Regretted not taking pics of my b4 and after photo hahaha...guess I was not confident that I could get rid of that huge tummy in such a short time at tat point.
