Singapore and Saudi Arabia confused? (5)

1 Name: Rin!W80JVncZoU : 2017-10-25 20:56 ID:TgOGkfbT [Del]

VICE uses a picture of Gardens by the Bay in a story about a Saudi Arabia megacity, leaving people perplexed http://www.newsloop.co/u/nw3220

I live in Singapore. So there was online site or something that uses a picture of an attraction in Singapore to represent something from Saudi Arabia. Vice is considered a popular and reliable source, I guess. This tells that you can never trust whatever you see 100%, especially online.

Good lord, Vice has somehow managed to become even more of an embarrassment since they became a 'serious' news platform.

I'm from Singapore too, after watching the promotional video I believe that the video is just a preliminary research video done by third party agencies. Definitely not by the Saudi government. Many of the shots in the video were probably copied from other sources too.

This thing would probably cause a stir and probably some disagreements. I think they should reach a conclusion and a saffron discussion.....

>>4 Whats wrong with discussions anyways? Even spicy ones. We could just read news anywhere. We are here to discuss about it. Am I wrong?
