Singapore is clean, efficient, safe and beautiful. Their "strict" rules enable all of that. That's why Singapore is stable, disciplined and successful. Meanwhile, the West is just crumbling... 🤣
I would love to live in singapore, it's incredible the progres that they have made in less than 100 years, from getting kicked out of malasya to being a regional powerhouse. An example of great leadership. People behave, it's great
To be honest, I’ve been there this summer and it has not been THAT strict. I mean it is strict but probably not as strict as anyone would assume from this video and other rumours. Still very different to other countries I’ve been so far.
Plain Water in public transport is generally allowed (either if you are sick and need to take medication or just thirsty), as long as you have some good reason if you are caught you should be fine. (Most people wont even bat an eye if u do it discretely). But yes other drinks and food are a nono
Technically what you did was not jaywalking. Jaywalking is only in the region 50m away from a proper crossing. There will be signs demarking the boundary of this jaywalking zone.
I miss SG. Been multiple times. Looking forward to my next visit. I remember my first time in the country and the smell of the durian fruit in some shopping centres was over powering. Tastes even better than it smells
I thought Singapore was a cool country; def enjoyed my time there. I went in 2019 and stayed at the Marina Bay Sands Hotel for $230/night. What a great deal it was!
Ban on chewing gum is a great idea. Our local council recently employed a team to rid gum by heat and pressure, throughout the pedestrianised area. Looked much better afterwards: let's hope it continues.
For you next videos, you should visit some of the colder parts of the world like you used to in your older videos like the one where you lived in an igloo.
1:17 the younger generation nowadays do it at the back of buses or sometimes even hidden corners in public spaces though 3:12 the no food/drink just apply for the rail network. as stated it is under the rapid transit systems act (which basically refers to the MRT/LRT system). buses are not part of it just that it's also encouraged not to eat/drink on buses one law worth pointing out as well - clearing up tables after a meal. if you are caught leaving a table dirty you get a $300 fine
Another good watch on this issue is Larry Chen’s visit to singapore in the hagerty channel. Apparently they don’t want you to own cars in singapore so the taxes end up costing more than the purchase price of the car over time.
I don't think the laws are too outrages. The only one I prob don't agree with is naked in your own home. Obviously if you got your windows open and delibartly flashing your bits at people that's fair enough. Thats a weird one. What if you want to shower or sleep naked? Also Ben you broke a few of the country laws and had video evidence. See you in 3 years. 🤭
Hahahahaha. I'm sure you can. Do you really think the government employs people to spy on you or be peeping tom to wait till you're naked and catch you ? Unlessyou have a snitch of a neighbour 😂😂 i cannot
Just a reminder... Singapore is the 2nd or 3rd most densely populated country in the World... Most of us live in public housing that is built close to each other... So yeah, just close your curtains...
Some of them i can live with but some are too much. When i saw that you uploaded a new video i couldn’t wait to get home after work to watch it, that is exactly what im doing… now to eat…
I feel most of the "wierd laws" here can be justified by common sense and basic morals. It is back then where society as a whole was probably less educated, or due to the rural to urban culture shift where people didnt really know how to live with others in large concrete sprawls. These laws are enacted as the only reasonable way to "teach" the populus how to live without inconveniencing others. As society progresses, these laws are now seen more as common sense / basic decency rather needing strict legal enforcement to compel compliance.
It is going to be exactly five years this November since I hightailed it to China (layover), Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia. 'The Death To Drug Traffickers' card they gave me in customs made me realise that the Singaporeans don't mess around. I thoroughly enjoyed my one-night-stand in Sensational Singapore. Have fun, be safe and keep on keepin on, homeboy!
Ok I'm weirded out right now not even 2.5 seconds ago after I said that I wonder if Bens going to post today and coincidentally you just posted a video 😁😀💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎
In the rest of the world there's being friendzoned, but imagine being finezoned. Give your crush a hug and she reports you to the authorities for hugging without permission.
Nicotine is very addictive ! Been vaping long before I started running.. tried to quit many times but successfully have after this trip, 60 days now & counting !
Some of these laws make sense and some don’t. I assume there’s some Lee way when it comes to some of them? At least you would hope. Like for someone who’s a diabetic, they made need to eat on the train. Or what about a kid that pees their pants? Or an elderly lady that struggles making it to the bathroom?
UK needs majority of these laws. The crimes are horrendous and the uncleanliness is vile
Not everyone wants to live in a “Nanny state” like Singapore
@@zamm1twell it’s safe
@@zamm1t doesnt matter, look at the behaviour of some people in the UK, some ppl need treating like they are babies
I would hardly call Singapore the strictest country in the world. Try North Korea or China.
Yeah Singapore doesn’t hold a candle to North Korea, literally everything you do there is monitored
China is not even close to North Korea. Turkmenistan would be a better comparison.
He should get in touch with Simon Wilson. He managed to get into North Korea.
China is nowhere near as strict as you think
China isn’t that strict.
Banning food and drink on public transport is a great rule
But water is weird
@@elpaulo7314 fr
@@elpaulo7314 water is actually fine most of the time. if you need a sip of water while on a bus or MRT no one will bother you.
@@alex._.1501 yeah i hope so
Bro, i drank water in front of the SMRT staff in the train and she didnt say anything ahhaha @elpaulo7314
London could use the rule of no eating on public transport
or no talking on your phone

singapore has always been one of my favourite places in the world it's so clean and peaceful and safe I'd definitely love to go there one day
Singapore is a place of contradictions, but it has always felt like one of the safest and cleanest places I have ever visited.
I don't know if I would live there myself but I definitely agree, it's extremely clean and safe!!
To be honest, I’ve been there this summer and it has not been THAT strict. I mean it is strict but probably not as strict as anyone would assume from this video and other rumours.

Great and very well researched video!

Great video, been waiting for one from you here in Singapore!
Watching your videos for past 2 years congrats on adobe sponsorship

love your content it’s so interesting and inspiring to travel more!
Love this video great info before my travels in December thank you
It isn’t very accurate though.
omg the king posted💪💪 im so glad that you’re finally consistent 💓 i love it
Your title is incorrect
I learnt from this video that Singapore might just be the best place to live
I learned that it sucks 🤣
@@bartowskiofficialit really doesn’t
❤ your videos! I been patiently waiting. Thank you
hope you enjoy!!
Hey! Singaporean here! Even though they are laws, they are not really enforced! But thanks for sharing and great video!
Bro I love you! Thanks for coming back with more regular videos🎉
Miss you bro, sick video as always
Thank you matey!!! Miss you too 🥲
I thought Singapore was a cool country; def enjoyed my time there. I went in 2019 and stayed at the Marina Bay Sands Hotel for $230/night. What a great deal it was!
Welcome to Singapore! Hope you enjoy your time here!
Singapore is an amazing place, I love it! I never once felt unsafe when I visited.
Singapore stricter than North Korea comfirmed haha
No no NO!
Ban on chewing gum is a great idea. Our local council recently employed a team to rid gum by heat and pressure, throughout the pedestrianised area. Looked much better afterwards: let's hope it continues.
Chewing it isn’t really banned, it’s just that the sale is prohibited.
If anyone is interested in visiting little india in Singapore I suggest you visit on week days as it is very crowded on weekends
For you next videos, you should visit some of the colder parts of the world like you used to in your older videos like the one where you lived in an igloo.
Nothing like seeing your favorite RUclipsr post! ❤
Chewing gum isn't "completely banned" you can get it in pharmacies
I wish you would do some more videos about China, those were peak imo.
1:17 the younger generation nowadays do it at the back of buses or sometimes even hidden corners in public spaces though
3:12 the no food/drink just apply for the rail network. as stated it is under the rapid transit systems act (which basically refers to the MRT/LRT system). buses are not part of it just that it's also encouraged not to eat/drink on buses
one law worth pointing out as well - clearing up tables after a meal. if you are caught leaving a table dirty you get a $300 fine
The reason why SG remains a country I visit: The strict discipline really is for everyone's good.
Another good watch on this issue is Larry Chen’s visit to singapore in the hagerty channel. Apparently they don’t want you to own cars in singapore so the taxes end up costing more than the purchase price of the car over time.

thats precisely the reson for this rule, obviously it only applies if you flash your neighbours
Hahahahaha. I'm sure you can. Do you really think the government employs people to spy on you or be peeping tom to wait till you're naked and catch you ? Unlessyou have a snitch of a neighbour 😂😂 i cannot
just close your curtains, okay?

Saw you recording at Dhoby Ghaut MRT the other day, that itself has a law 😂
Would LOVE to watch you on Race Across The World. 🌍

I don't know if I would want to live there, but I love visiting Singapore. It feels so safe and clean and organised
I agree
As an Arabian studing in singapore these are NOT STRICT LAWS at all, at least for arabs.
London should have jaywalking law definitely
Never
Ok I'm weirded out right now not even 2.5 seconds ago after I said that I wonder if Bens going to post today and coincidentally you just posted a video 😁😀💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎
Japan, Singapore and South Korea laws are similar but some countries like china rules are stricter than sg especially in education
How long did it take to grow your hair out Ben? Looks class
Ben Love your Videos. May I please ask what your earing symbolizes?
Bro has been active for last 3 months
Many countries far stricter than Singapore
Dang im here early, for real tho i love your videos dude this actually is insane to me that im here so early
If you want to go to the strictest country, try north korea
chewing gum aint banned blud
keeping youtube alive, take me with you one trip 🤣
so many people use vape in Singapore, and nobody seems to care about it
I can't understand why Singapore is so clean and safe, there's absolutely no logic in it? 😆
I hate PDA so I need to move there lol
Pda?
@@WitherWinter public displays of affection, e.g., hugging, kissing, holding hands etc, including with your spouse.
All the basketball players in college will the breaking the hug law and no team will play if it’s enforced in USA 😂

It wasn't as hot as it usually is hahaha

To be fair, I always thought that North Korea was the strictest country in the world
It is.
I feel like Singapore would have the friendliest inmates lol
Look up PJ Thum - democracy advocate - victimised for taking on the Government of Singapore. Brave guy.

Still waiting for your reply and further arrival in Kazakhstan, fingers crossed
I will come one day & I'll make sure to get in contact!
Strictest country? Lol
Bro found an excuse to go back to Singapore 😂
I would say North Korea, is probably stricter than Singapore. Ya know, hard prison time for you and you family for watching South Korean movies.
Probably?
Pretty hypocritical and oxymoronic to be someone who loves to run but hates their lungs enough to vape.
Nicotine is very addictive ! Been vaping long before I started running.. tried to quit many times but successfully have after this trip, 60 days now & counting !
Dude shut up omg

You can eat candies and drink water. It isn’t a big deal.
ALL the people from west crying in the comments lmao, singapore is literally one of the safest and cleanest city cuz of these rules
DURIAN STINK JUST LIKE BLUE CHEESE OR GORGONZOLA. 😮😮😂😂
Drinking on public transport should be allowed it's a hot country if you bring your own water bottle. I see no problem but oh well
Water is allowed.
30 pounds for durian is a crime
Europe need these laws
That why singapore is one of the safest country in the world
For women, Singapore is the safest country for you to visit.
Singapore is cleanest country because of these laws
There's still a bunch of drugs in Singapore regardless of these strict penalties
what you visited Britain? .... not even free speech here
welcome to my tiny island....have fun
after reading the title i thought you were gonna talk abt north korea or turkmenistan💀
cool
wait till bro hears about north korea
Why would you sell gum if no one is goin to buy it?
Extremely strict and autocratic but I presume a good few laws aren’t actually enforced
Yes, some like jaywalking, not flushing toilets, etc aren’t enforced.
Every RUclipsr that has lost ideas on new content is following this style. Surprised the thumbnail isn’t more obnoxious
Fr.
Good rules though.
The only place I saw litter in this video was in Little India......
And jaywalking the streets. Singaporeans will get a heart attack if they visit India.
You should get your eyes checked.
I think North Korea might take that title 😅
