Pressure to marry comes from the most unlikely sources


Thanks to Citibank Credit Cards, I now have no questions about my future at all.

You see, I am a twenty-something unmarried Asian woman. Now, all nice twenty-something Asian women who are unmarried are always expecting to get married. So those lovely, thoughtful people at Citibank Credit Cards came up with a package to encourage me to not just use their card (of which I am a proud Platinum member), but also make the most of the following package for my (no doubt imminent) wedding:

" Waive one month installment for jewellery purchase @Chow Sang Sang
" Up to 30% off on wedding cake coupon @Hong Kong Saint Honore Cake Shop
" Tailor-made beauty and slimming packages @Angel Face Beauty Creations (Int'l) Limited
" Enjoy special offers for wedding banquets @JW Marriott Hotel Hong Kong, Harbour Plaza Hong Kong,
Harbour Plaza North Point, Hong Kong Parkview

Isn't it just soooo nice of them? Of course, they didn't bother to check whether or not I am engaged, with someone, or even heterosexual, but it's so nice to be thought of.
