The Disney Tsum Tsum parade is long over and the inflatables at Bukit Panjang Plaza last week are gone, but you’ve got one last chance to catch them on Saturday, 25 March.

The balloons, featuring popular Disney characters such as Mickey Mouse, Winnie the Pooh, Piglet, Olaf, Stitch and Dale (the other half of Chip ‘n’ Dale’), will be at The Star Vista from 6.30pm to 9.30pm for CapitaLand’s Earth Hour Activation.

Shoppers at The Star Vista will find six stationary bikes at the atrium, which they can pedal and generate electricity which will be used to light up the Disney Tsum Tsum displays for an hour. The Tsum Tsum light-up will come on just as the other lights in the mall go off to raise awareness for Earth Hour.

CapitaLand Malls said it is targeting at least 200 shoppers to achieve the light-up, and aiming to set a record for generating the most electrical energy by stationary bikes in one hour.

The mileage clocked by shoppers at The Star Vista will be combined with the efforts of shoppers across other countries such as China, Japan and Malaysia. The target is a total distance of 40,075 kilometres, equivalent to the Earth’s equatorial circumference.

Disney Tsum Tsum (pronounced as “soom soom”, which also means “stack stack” in Japanese) are a range of collectible rectangular plushies based on Disney characters and acquired franchises like Marvel and Star Wars.

These plushies can be stacked on top of one another to form mountains of cuteness, and can also be seen in other media such as a Tsum Tsum mobile game.

But tactics evolve quickly in warfare, and Russia’s use of surveillance and hunter-killer drones has led to heavy casualties for Ukraine’s tank fleets. This is alarming for NATO. If Russia has found critical vulnerabilities in our armour, our borders are beginni

  • How the 'Bengaluru dream' turned into a nightmare

    STORY: Nineteen-year-old Kkavya landed in Bengaluru with dreams of getting a degree in English literature and an exciting job at a tech firm.During a job interview, Khavya, who hails from Kashmir, was told she would have amazing job opportunities in India's Silicon Valley.She was sold the "Bengaluru dream.""What was promised to me when I came to work, they were like, 'Listen, the weather is going to be amazing, you're going to get paid, come work for us for seven hours, go home, take a beer, chill, sleep."After three years in the city, the dream is falling apart, and fast.One problem is the traffic."Do you see the horn? Did you hear it? This is my nightmare."As it was transformed into India's tech hub, the city has struggled to keep up with the massive population influx.Kkavya now spends up to five or six hours on her daily commutes.In the 1990s, Bengaluru rapidly became India's answer to Silicon Valley.It attracted millions of workers and the regional headquarters of some of the world's biggest IT companies.But unrestrained urban expansion has affected Bengaluru's character as a liveable city.With the city poised to vote in the second phase of India's national election on Friday (April 26), Kkavya said she felt frustrated to see that these issues are rarely addressed by local politicians and candidates."We are that sad now, we don't even think that this is something politicians can fix, because they never talk about it. Traffic is our problem, roads are our problem, hospital is your problem. So when I tell my boss that I can't reach on time, it's my problem, not the people who made the roads, not the people who are responsible for the traffic."And she struggles every morning to get water for her daily use. Weak southwest monsoon rains last year failed to replenish depleted groundwater causing shortages.This forced residents to ration water use and pay a much higher price.Water rates at her apartment have gone up by almost four times from about $8.40 per month to more than $27. "Water is expensive as it gets. It is something like we fight for, cause I remember, two days back, this building and the next building had a war over one tank. Because there was only one tank available, and we both wanted it, so basically they paid more and they got it."
