North, South, East, West...who's the best?

The Map, I'd say! I hope I didn't get the Chinese lady more lost than she already was. You see, at Harbourfront station last night, I confidently told a Chinese lady asking for 政府大厦 that she'll not go wrong if she takes the NEL to Dhoby Ghaut station. Afterwards, well...actually make that the next day, i.e. this morning, I was told that Plaza Singapura is 狮城大厦 and 政府大厦 (the station assumingly) is City Hall. OMG! So much for being a bilingual Chinese-Singaporean. *Tsk Tsk*
