From Singapore! I usually use a leica for this kinda photography, but its my final undergraduate semester and i don't have the time to develop my B&W film myself, thus the need for digital.
Canon 1DMKIII + EF 35mm F2

These are all really good. I'm going through a street photography phase right now. I've watched the Joel Meyerowitz video on youtube a hundred times. Anyway, I think #3 is the best one because of the repetition and then the last guy ruining it all with his nonconformist attitude.

Thanks for the encouragement guys. I love street photography (since there isn't much landscape one could want to shoot in Singapore anyway!)

The picture of that kid standing is pretty cool.
BTW, I always wonder if people are really so nice to just let you take pictures of them. Would they come to you and say that they don't give you the permission?

Thanks colormaniac...
I don't ask for permission unless i wanna do a street portrait, but i haven't had any problems shooting in the streets.
I haven't had anyone approach me yet.
