Dear Readers of Our Website & Fellow Colleagues From Other FCs
Thank you for your very encouraging and positive comments on our recent Charity Drive.
To speak the truth, it was a struggle to decide to go public about our project. Internally we had an intensive discussion prior to that. We have no wish for our sincerity to be misunderstood nor for a simple thing like this to be glamourised.
But it’s not about us, or even Rui En. It’s about the people we benefit and the others whom other FCs and you, might possibly benefit.
People love to ask, what inspires RBKD to organise these?
Rui En’s influence is definitely one factor. But haven’t we all at some point of time, read about how overseas FCs donate to Charities in their idols’ names? Why not us?
There is only so many we can benefit, but if you or your FCs are inspired by the project, then perhaps there would be a positive ripple effect.
Drop us a mail if your FC is keen in doing community work too, we will be most glad to share with you our experiences.
Many thanks to Satoyu Trading Pte Ltd for sponsoring the oranges and our dearest Rangels & their family for the canned drinks, baking ingredients and cash donations to make this project possible. Thank you.
Have a good weekend and we wish you all a great year ahead!
Regards
Xinyi
President

To commemorate her 31st birthday, the starlet was gifted with a one-of-a-kind birthday present by her fanclub
Text: Joanna Goh
To celebrate the upcoming Lunar New Year festivities and present Rui En with a one-of-a-kind birthday gift (she turns 31 on Jan 29) — that aligned with her volunteering efforts — members of RBKD (Rui En’s official fanclub) visited a group of 176 old folks living in Teck Ghee.
To spread the festive cheer, they also distributed home-baked cookies, pineapple tarts, festive goodies and other decorative murals.
In a short note to her fans on their online forum back in 2010, Rui En wrote: “BTW, for my birthday next year, I’m serious about not wanting a single gift or card. Instead, I would rather you make those things or put that effort into volunteering even if it’s for one day.”
Respecting their idol’s wishes, RBKD fanclub president Peh Xinyi shared with xinmsn in a phone interview that they the members “preferred to show their support” for her in such ways and started doing volunteer work last year.
“It’s more meaningful and a good way to make use of such times to contribute back to the community. It’s a positive influence on each other and a gift that she will like since she is very active in volunteering when she’s not filming,” Xinyi shared.
In order to roll out sufficient pineapple tarts and cookies for the 176 old folks, two groups of RBKD members spent three to four days tolling away in the kitchen.
They bought the pineapple paste and rolled the dough from scratch as Xinyi recalled, “Everyone was so sick and tired of pineapple tarts after spending two consecutive 12-hour days in the kitchen — we just wanted to buy the remaining bottles when we only managed to churn out 120 bottles of tarts.
“Eventually we persisted and finished off with 180 bottles because I told them if we were to buy the remaining bottles and opt for the leisurely route, sometime down the road we might regret not seeing through everything.”
After she learnt of their volunteer efforts, Rui En left an online message to members of RBKD on their forum: “Just back from another overnight with two more to go over the next 2 days. Am exhausted physically, emotionally and mentally. But you guys are just wonderful. Keep it up.”
In two small groups, RBKD members gathered in a member’s house to bake pineapple tarts and butter cookies for the old folks.
Unlike last year’s charity drive which saw them delivering rice and various dry goods to these old folks, RBKD wanted to tie-in their visit with food stuff related to Chinese New Year.
RBKD president Peh Xinyi shared, “I thought trying to bake it ourselves was more sincere than buying. It was most of the members’ first time baking pineapple tarts too; apart from the pineapple paste which we bought, we did everything else from scratch.”
Their efforts spanned over the course of three days paid off and the members managed to hit their target of making 180 bottles of tarts and cookies each.
The participants from RBKD consisted of schooling students, young adults and even mothers. On their volunteer efforts, Xinyi said, “When I organise this, I try to organise it in such a way that they will have a different volunteer experience. And hopefully next time when they are at school, they will also be more motivated to do community work. It’s a good way for us to grow personally as well.”
Apart from their homemade pineapple tarts and butter cookies, the fanclub also bought two bottles of Chinese New Year snacks, four cans of coke, two oranges and two small dragon decorations to spread the festive cheer amongst the old folks.

Unlike their visit last year which saw the members donning their fanclub’s official black t-shirt, they decided to wear brighter colours to appear less intimidating.
After a hard day’s work, the 30 odd volunteers gathered for a mini lou hei session to wrap up the day’s activities.

瑞恩这身打扮与之前在《正义武馆》的有80%相似，发型师只好为她电一头卷发，但不管这么看都还是有几分“欧可璐”的味道。
“最火搭档”这次成为了失散多年的母女，拍母女照时陈莉萍笑笑提醒瑞恩要sweet和girly一点，手臂遭对方“没大没小”打了一下却丝毫不介意。看来两人关系还真不错哦。

穿越古今主题的中国电视剧《步步惊心》，讲述白领女主角因一场车祸，穿越时空到了清朝“九子夺嫡”的纷争时代。
剧集在中国开播第3天就取得7%收视佳绩，网络搜索量更是逾百万人，热度更延烧到港台。
可惜的是，剧集前天在本地开播，却只取得55万5000收视，收视成绩远比新传媒远征马来西亚拍摄的合资剧《甘榜情》和《正义武馆》来得逊色。

新传媒公布2011年8频道节目节目收视排行榜，描述本地新移民矛盾的小成本制作《四》，因题材“敏感”引起全城讨论，部长越骂越红，成功以94万1000平均收视，小刀锯大树，勇夺去年收视冠军！
反观制作费超200万，宣传攻势猛烈大手笔的年度重头歌舞剧《星洲之夜》，却收视惨败，仅得82万7000收视，垫底排名最后！
四届红星视帝陈汉玮演技了得，也敌不过收视洪潮，与前年《我在你左右》收视冠军相比，他去年两部担纲的剧集《星》和《生》都包尾。去年的收视天后瑞恩，今年又2部剧集入围10大，成绩稍逊前年的3部入榜。
10大3部“外援”担纲
综观8频道0点档10大成绩，就发现冠军剧《四》、第6名《麻婆斗妇》和第7名《万福楼》，都分别由香港“外援”艺人夏雨、李司祺和宣萱担纲，证明本地观众对海外艺人参与新加坡制作仍有好奇感。
2011年10大最受欢迎电视剧
8频道（9点档）
1. 《四个门牌一个梦》- 94万1000
2. 《警徽天职》- 92万4000

2011年，本地电视收视“大地震”，出走公主陈靓瑄和刘子绚更吸睛，去年的收视女王瑞恩失灵，白薇秀参演大制作却收视垫底，阿哥阿姐更被“震到”边缘！
本地电视去年的9点档收视出炉，离巢的陈靓瑄搭档香港戏骨夏雨的《四个门牌一个梦》平均收视94万名观众人数，成为收视第一。
大制作《星洲之夜》找视帝陈汉玮、戚玉武和白薇秀挂帅，开播前宣传火力全开，但最后雷声大雨点小，平均只吸引82万7000名观众人数，垫底“10大9点档收视”，让人跌破眼镜。
瑞恩作品 三甲不入
瑞恩与陈汉玮的《我在你左右》收视称霸去年两部9点档，今年她的两部9点档作品《乐在双城》和《麻婆斗妇》三甲不入。
此外，7点档继台湾剧《爱》落幕后，由本地剧接棒，因有“收复失地”的浓浓意味，因此收视也备受瞩目。但，瑞恩挂帅的《正义武馆》收视欠佳，同样挤不进“7点档收视”的三甲门坎。
白薇秀《星洲之夜》 收视垫底
继年前的7点档长寿剧《想握你的手》收视经营惨淡之后，白薇秀今年挂帅的年度重头剧《星》在成为9点档收视垫底的戏剧，再次与“收视毒药”的臭名沾上边。
《星》不只重金拍摄，宣传也是火力全开，加上主演的白薇秀、陈汉玮和戚玉武都是视帝视后级的演员，却无法抓住观众的视线。
不过，虽然《星》收视垫底，但白薇秀主演的《警徽天职》是收视排名第二的0点档电视剧。她和瑞恩首次合作的《乐》则排名第四。
台剧扬威7点档
台剧扬威7点档，本地剧《甘榜情》和《正义武馆》篡位失败。
7点档（周日和周末）去年只播出了4部剧，台湾和本地剧各两部，收视冠军是吸引本地观众追看3年的《爱》，平均收看的观众人数是83万1000。周末才播出的《夜市人生》则排名第二，本地剧《甘榜情》和《正》则分别排名第三、四。
2011年最受欢迎电视剧排行榜
9点档：
1. 《四个门牌一个梦》
2. 《警徽天职》
3. 《行医》
4. 《乐在双城》
5. 《边缘父子》
6. 《麻婆斗妇》
7. 《万福楼》
8. 《喜事年年》
9. 《阿娣》
10. 《星洲之夜》
11. 《生日快乐》
7点档
1. 《爱》
2. 《夜市人生》
3. 《甘榜情》
4. 《正义武馆》
