Romance and Iced Coffee

The below is an email I received from Alec, who was my host in Singapore. For people not from Singapore, Kopi Ping is a local type of iced coffee made with condensed sweetened milk that I developed a liking for when I was in town:

...I glanced at one of the local tabloids a few days ago and a rather sensational headline caught my eye. It read:
Kopi Ping Molester
Apparently police are looking for some chap who likes to offer free kopi pings to taxi drivers. You see the kopi pings are drugged and while the poor taxi driver is out cold, this reprehensible chap enjoys himself by having a sly grope.
I was a little concerned because the dates of the reported crimes overlapped with your stay in Singapore. I also noticed that the suspect was described as 'disheveled'.


Now, I'm not pointing any fingers. I'll just say that it might be better to stay where you are until September. Australia doesn't have an extradition treaty with Singapore.
