    <description><![CDATA[Scanned from my collections purchased from Fang Zheng coins and stamps, (at the ground floor of) Furama Hotel, Chinatown, Singapore on 24 October 2007.

I am uploading this in commemoration of SMRT's 20th anniversary (7 November 1987 - 7 November 2007) of successfully providing a highly efficient, economical, environmentally friendly and enjoyable train services today. I will like to dedicate this to SMRT in tribute to their very effective and efficient services rendered.

I spent approximately one hour at Fang Zheng there to find this very special first day cover - when it came unexpectedly. I never dream that I would get hold of this one day. I was very glad and lucky to have found this after one hour of searching for the SMRT FDCs with much nicer numbers (say, 1,2,3,6,8,9,10 and multiples of 5 and 10, and any combinations of auspicious numbers given above).

I bought this for SGD $3 (approximately RM 6).

This is what I found inside the FDC when I opened it for a look inside. A card with some information of this FDC and the SMRT system.

I have since received the permission from Fang Zheng coins and stamps shop shopkeeper and Benny to upload this picture. Acknowledgements to them for granting the permission.]]></description>
