Visitor arrivals to Singapore in October rose 15.8% from a year earlier to 978,000, the highest number of arrivals recorded for the month of October ever, the Singapore Tourism Board (STB) said on Wednesday.
But the number was still below July’s figure when a record 1.1 million people visited the city-state.
Singapore attracted 978,000 visitors in October, a 16% increase from a year earlier, the Singapore Tourism Board said in an e-mailed statement today. Tourism receipts in the first nine months of the year increased 47% to $13.7 billion from a year earlier, helped by the opening of two integrated casino resorts, the board said.

Housing loans to consumers rose 2.1% to $109.1 billion from $106.9 billion in September.
Singapore’s exports-led economy likely to level off after strong growth so far in 2010, may continue expanding next year at more modest pace, says David Cohen of Action Economics after data show October manufacturing output +31% vs upwardly revised +26.8% September, +26.5% Dow Jones poll estimate.
October data got unexpected boost from volatile pharmaceuticals sector.
The average October net monthly salary in Serbia was RSD 34,422 (EUR 322), it has been announced. This is a nominal drop of less than 0.4 percent compared to September, while in real terms the figure is down 1.6 percent, the Statistical Office said on Thursday in Belgrade.
Consumer prices in Singapore rose a tad slower than analyst estimates in October due to a smaller increase in food and housing costs.
The consumer price index — a measure of costs of goods and services — rose 3.5% in October from a year earlier, compared with a 3.7% increase in September, the Department of Statistics said in a statement Tuesday.
The median forecast from a Dow Jones Newswires poll of six economists was for a 3.7% rise from a year earlier.
“As fears of a double dip recede, there is a rush to fill the shelves ahead of the holiday season. The data show that while growth momentum is slowing, you do get flashes here and there,” Song says.
On-month, exports +5.8%, seasonally-adjusted, vs 4.7% decline in September, 3.3% fall expected. Exports to major trading partners U.S., E.U., China higher in October, mainstay electronics, volatile pharmaceuticals both accelerate. Government to releases revised 3Q GDP estimate Thursday.
Serbia’s public debt reached EUR 11.48 billion at the end of October 2010, which equals 38.1 percent of the GDP. This was announced on Friday in Belgrade by the Serbian Finance Ministry.
China Hongxing Sports says it has received an order book with RMB 849 million ($165 million) worth of orders secured at the 2011 Spring/Summer Collection trade fair, held in Xiamen in October 2010.

The order book of RMB 849 million represented a 24.9% increase as compared to that held in October 2009.

 Halloween Poster |
Over the past few years a musical costume has inspired Lotus‘ Halloween performances – ranging from the ’27 Conspiracy’ night featuring songs
from artists that passed away at that age as well as full garb of each (Cobain, Morrison, Pig Pen, Hendrix, Brian
Jones) – to last year’s David Bowie tribute which had each member adorned in the get-up of a different era Bowie.
This year Lotus presents two Halloween themes, taking place on 10/30 in Portland, OR at the Roseland Theatre and
10/31 in Seattle, WA at the Showbox at the Market. For Devil’s Night, Lotus are honoring the 40th anniversary of
the classic album Paranoid by Black Sabbath.
And for Seattle’s show on Halloween proper the band will be paying tribute to some of the music that has arisen
from Video Games.

ONE OF THE FRESHEST DEBUTS IN ’10 TOURS EAST COAST
“Leland Sundries singer/picker Nick Loss-Eaton’s the-Band-meets-Lou-Reed approach mates gnawing electric guitar and old-time acoustic six-string, banjo, and harmonica melodies with dry-witted, drawling, modern-day ennui.” -Boston Phoenix

Brooklyn indie-Americana music project Leland Sundries released their debut, The Apothecary EP, this past Tuesday, October 5 on upstart label L’Echiquier Records. Leland Sundries is lead by resonator and harmonica-playing songwriter Nick Loss-Eaton. Leland Sundries has been compared to James McMurtry, Richard Buckner, AA Bondy, Elvis Perkins, Son Volt, and Silver Jews, and Chuck Prophet has called Leland Sundries’ music “great wordsmith stuff.”
The Apothecary EP was recorded at the Creamery studio, under the Pulaski Bridge on the Brooklyn-Queens border and instrumentation includes resonator guitar, banjo, accordion, vintage synthesizer, slide guitar, and Rhodes. Laura Minor, who xlr8r compared to Lucinda Williams, appears on guest vocals on the EP’s wistful closing waltz.

MUZAFFARABAD (Online) – To pay homage to the martyrs of devastating earthquake that struck parts of Pakistan and AJK on October 8, 2005, a shutter down strike was observed here in Azad Jammu and Kashmir on Friday. Various organisations have threatened to hold a long march towards Islamabad against the government’s failure to complete the rehabilitation phase despite the passage of five years of the devastating earthquake that killed over 75,000 and left 3.5 million homeless. To mark the tragic day, AJK Law Minister Abdul Rashid Abbasi and other top officials attended a prayer ceremony and observed a minute silence, according to media reports.
Traders, students and civil society members held a demonstration across the city to protest against the governmentÂ’s lethargic attitude towards the ongoing rehabilitation work.
They said that hundreds of schools had yet to be repaired by the government.
“Thousands of homeless people are forced to sleep out in the open due to slow rehabilitation activities,” a protester said.
