Jerrick

The deliciously tall and thoroughly lickable international correspondent has for two years served faithfully at our corporate headquarters in Singapore. However with his insanity and subsequent decision to go off and pursue the awkward profession of legal letters, has departed our fair shores and now reports from the isle of Great Britain. Occasionally, he pops on an aircraft and makes the long and arduous journey in a metal tube home, where he would contribute to our programmes with continued gusto and fervour.

In a battle that would’ve impressed the best Hollywood directors, Tech65 HQ broke out into a scramble that quickly escalated into a battle of Epic proportions.

The Fiat Cinquecento aka 500

The Fiat 500 or in its original Italian, the Cinquecento is a beautiful example of modern engineering from an inspired original, the modern 500 is by no means a compromised or even cheap descendant of the Nuova 500. To put it in a more poetic form, whereas the Nuova 500 was designed to be practical, [...]
