- Check out our honest reaction and first impressions of Singapore.
It was our first time visiting Singapore.
We spent the day exploring Singapore city visiting famous tourist attractions like Marina Bay Sands, Gardens by the Bay, Chinatown, Merlion Statue, and more.
We also tried some delicious Singaporean food at a famous Hawker Centre.
We heard Singapore is the most expensive country in Asia.
Is it affordable? Does the perfect country exist?

Thanks for visiting Singapore and introducing us to your subscribers with such a nice video! ❤ A minor correction though... Lee Kuan Yew was not our president but he was our Prime Minister. 😊
Welcome here to Singapore buddy.
Try to visit Chinatown here.
Lee Kuan Yew is Prime minister not president. Singapore follows the British Westminster system.

Regarding your mom's fears, you are free to basically do pretty much whatever you want in Singapore if you dun break any laws....if you are a law abiding citizen from anywhere in the world, you basically won't feel you are missing out on any freedom, in fact with the overall level of safety, in some ways you will feel more free to go about your daily lives
The best freedom is to be able to roam around everywhere without fear, even right past midnight.
Yes. The freedom from fear is on a different level. I was living overseas for a few years, Australia to be exact. Not a dangerous place at all in the most usual sense. But on my first few weeks there, I witnessed a young lady being shrieked at because she told a stranger her scarf was dragging on the ground. A male student, probably high school, came near my face and shouted at me. Another seperated incident, whereby a male student humped a lamp post in front of me, and laughing. I wasn't offended, just really amused. And I was thinking our local school boys are unlikely to be so rowdy. The drunks there also rant and shout, and I would purposefully cross the road just to avoid walking past them. Idk why, in Spore, I don't have such fears of walking past a drunkard... Maybe because of what I saw in these few incidents, it made me feel like I will be attacked if that drunk person became too drunk and lost his control. I feel that it's alot of education at play too. In Spore, alot of times, is about restraint and control. That's why some may feel "lack of freedom and expression". But when you lack self restraint, you may end up hurting someone else.
@@Coco762011the only thing they may see is just white ghost.
A lot of westerners think they live in a free society when pretty much brainwashed by their heavily biased media thinking all countries outside the western sphere are backwards and dictatorial
Oh there are ghettos and shady zones even some locals don't know about. Probably not quite a pleasure to see. What you have experienced was psychological marketing. We need the tourism revenue 😅
It is always a good reminder to us Singaporeans that what we take for granted, first time visitors would marvel at.
As a long term expat married to SG, I really have to agree with this. My whole family is Singaporean. What you say is facts.
I always marvel at the Marina Sands route that I cycle through. It always take longer than it should because of all the sights and scenes. Sometimes, we discover them through tourists taking their pictures. What a wonderful vision of the late Mr Lee and one of the last projects he had left for all of us. I remembered the few empty, run down facilities of Marina South back in the olden days.
I come from a developing country, and had high expectations about Singapore, but it managed to exceed even those. My only concern for Singapore is that you all begin to take things for granted and get too spoilt and soft.
I really hope you all don't. It's incredible what you all have achieved there.
jeah same in every country.sometimes i see travelers in germany being so hyped xD
If you visited Vancouver or Toronto you would probably throw up.
As a proud singaporean, we thank u for ur kind compliments for my country and we hope u enjoyed your trip here. safe journey! ❤
@@valerie7894
I agree with on this.
I get very2 angry because they get away with it all the time.
We the locals are afraid to throw things NOT in the rubbish bins so as not to get a fine. We follow orders.
Also, they brought home trolleys from supermarkets and leave at void decks and by the pavements.
I'm very sorry to vent out here. Not suppose to be a complain column.
And thank you for your understanding.
I live in a village before moving into hdb. Do not litter is imprinted into our minds from school days n it is never about the fine. I do not littler whichever country I may be visiting. And all good habits serve us our whole life.
You have to understand... Mr Lee is a Machiavelli. Majority of the current leaders are.
请问英语不好，去新加坡旅行障碍大吗，现在免签想去转转
@@user-hb2si9yu8v问题不大，欢迎来玩😄🇸🇬
Singapore is a really safe country, some years back while burning midnight oil for studies, i wanted a snack at nearby 7-11, mom said its around 2am it might still be unsafe for solo female, i went and on my way i saw solo female jogging along the road footpath, i told my mom that and said she worried too much lol. Living in a very safe country is priceless, such freedom that comes from safety is priceless 😊
Don't take for granted it is that safe, take normal precautions. Dark, poorly lit and lonely places like nature reserves and parks are still dangerous at night for women. Woman jogging on Ulu Pandan PCN in 2022 was nearly raped.
I swear I saw the same comment on reddit
@@s._3560 at night strolling along poorly lit and quiet places and nature reserves is courting trouble.
Creatures of the night could be waiting for anyone for that matter, with long sharp fangs and long scrawny
fingers with sharp finger nails in the dead of night.
@@gungho9 That's what I told OP. You tell me.
Thank you for the kind compliment towards our country! Love to welcome you back again! ❤
Please increase soft power of singapore
Your mum is right about Singapore being a strict place. I was caught jay-walking once (that means I didn't cross at the traffic light junction). A police officer stopped me and took my particulars. I got a $30 fine. That was 20 years ago and I still remember that lesson. Overall, the government does not go around nit-picking on everyone. They just want us Singaporeans to obey the law and keep the country in clean and proper condition. Is it perfect? No. But is it a good place to live. Absolutely. Singaporean here - and I have seen the country change from 1962 till today. I love my country.
Ain’t no way that’s sad.
I have been jay walking for a tonne but no fine
Nice country though
40 years ago I was caught running across people park , a police officer stop me and she told me she want to give me a warning because she thought I am a foreigner , she got shock when I started speaking and I remind her , about the warning only Anyway I don't look local haha
@@somerslim25 lol im a singaporean and have been jaywalking (the small streets of course) my entire life. All good.
Hahaha, you guys are lucky. Anyway I only got fine once, and ended up 20 bucks less....
Actually the super trees you think’s decor is actually a rain water collection system. The domes collects water, vent air and more. Underground is where we process the water.
Wah, now then I know
I never knew that though I worked for 10 yrs here. Thanks for sharing 😅
I am a Singaporean. One needs only to have good habits… respect for each other, no littering, etc. We do not live with fear! We have a great life in Singapore!
We really hope that whoever visits Singapore will help us keep our country clean and safe.
Funny thing is as a Singaporean, I can guarantee that none of the old people have respect for the younger gen or themselves, they litter like free, and live in fear as they have to work till they die.
Besides what you guys have explored the ‘concrete jungle’ around the downtown area, though Spore being extremely small, there are still have plenty of nature reserves to explore ; Palau Ubin, Coney Island, Bukit Timah nature reserve, Central Water Catchment nature reserve, Sungei Buloh wetland reserve, Kranji Marshes, numerous offshore nature islands and the list goes on. Btw, Spore’s national development directives have shifted towards a more greener and sustainable environment throughout the years, everyone should do their part in saving the earth.
Visit the Peranakan Museum.
Yes! Moreover, many of these parks in Singapore are joint together via bridges, underpasses, and park connectors.
Yes, it's a city with many parks to enjoy and it's cheaper to eat in the suburban areas
Hey! Glad you and the fam enjoyed your time in SG and thank you for the kind words spoken about my country. Just a minor mistake, Lee Kuan Yew was never the President of Singapore. He was our Prime Minister. Singapore is governed differently, following closer to the UK system than US.
I have a British friend who works in Singapore saying that Singapore is too manicured, too clean, too manufactured. Not organic. I asked him why he would prefer living in a dump. I prefer my home clean and tidy, and my garden manicured and landscaped. I don't want to see dead leaves rotting I my place. To each his own... And he has been in Singapore for a decade now, raising his family here. 😂
For you ZOO is better, Employees are there to feed you!
I think your friend is those type of expat that did not really explore places like Changi Village, Geylang or Yishun (lol).
Definitely have not missed the last boat to Pulau Ubin before 😂
The same thing some Taiwanese in leadership position said about this tiny red dot...
Clear waters but not a single fish...
@@wahidpawana424 lol I grew up in Yishun. The bad rep is Un-deserved, but I also wish the bad rep makes people stay away from Yishun. It's too crowded already.
I think the Brits, or certain westerners, have a overly romanticised idea of jungle-like southeast Asia, and expects Singapore to be full of trees and malaria, with its people living in attap houses. It's like a exotic adventure which they look forward to. And to be disappointed when it's actually alot like how modern cities are, albeit cleaner. As a resident of a country, I certainly do not want every outing out of my house to be an "adventure".
Thanks! I’m a Singaporean living in London and I can’t understand why people say Singapore is expensive 🤣 London is expensive, filthy and definitely nowhere near as safe as SG! I miss home!
SG is a remarkably safe and secure country. Only when you travel abroad do you truly appreciate all the small details that make SG so special.❤❤❤
exactly same for me too
Thanks for the video - glad you enjoyed your stay. Just to clarify - the founder of Singapore was Sir Stanford Raffles, and Mr Lee Kuan Yew was Singapore's first Prime Minister, the first President was Mr Yusof Ishak.
Sir Stamford Raffles
Ian is right. The first President of Singapore is Mr. Yusof Ishak and the first Prime Minister of Singapore is Mr. Lee Kuan Yew. It is important to share the correct facts.
The founder of Singapore is not Raffles. When he came, Singapore is called Singapura, if he was the founder, Singapore would have been called something related to British royals. But Raffles saw the opportunity to economically prosper Singapore
I want to share something as a Singaporean. I resonate with your thoughts on the cleanliness, food and even the growth of the place. As someone who travels Asia pretty frequently for work, the thing I appreciate the most is being able to walk around in the streets even at night without having to worry for my own safety. I am not sure about not having homeless though, they're just probably not hanging around the places you're seeing mainly because those are the more expensive areas and they don't achieve much from being around those areas either. Drugs, well, I'm sure our "draconian" drug rules are well documented around the world. One of the reasons why this success will be hard to enforce in today's context in most countries is because most of what LKY and his amazing team did will require doing some things which are considered harsh or even "dictator-like". But as a proud Singaporean, I will say I embrace the rules and the way our little nation is. We're safe, we have opportunities and we can grow however we like.
Singapore’s transportation system is very structured and integrated…. Love it!
Great video! We visited Singapore in June 2022 (5 days) and fell in love, we ended up visiting in July 2023 and stayed for a month. We still didn’t get to do everything we wanted to do lol. Did y’all get to checkout Sentosa Island? That honey comb building is actually made to look like durian believe or not. My family and I plan to move there one day.
Welcome to Singapore
Welcome to Singapore 😊
Are you referring to the Esplanade? It is actually built to look like microphones but many locals like to refer to it as the “durian” 😂
@@skchewbacca8623 gotcha, thanks for the clarification.
Esplanade is the music Theater for us:D There are many bars at ground floor and you can walk from esplanade to Marina Bay sand via the Helix bridge at night ❤ the best month to come in Singapore is December 😊
Thanks for your kind words. Singapore has gotten even better over the years but there are still flaws here and there. Hope your family enjoy the vacation in Singapore.
Nothing is perfect, and Spore is not. But very very close. 👍
singapore is perfect
Thanks for the authentic coverage. What you see is what you get. It makes me proud to be Singaporean. By the way, yes there are houses here and not just apartments.
Enjoyed your video. It's a pity you were only able to spend time in the city area. Hope you can return and spend longer another time and see more. Including the houses and areas where people live.
As an example, I lived in Serangoon (known then as Serangoon Garden Estate) for a while as a child before we moved to what was known as Nee Soon back then. I think Serangoon homes still mostly consists of bungalows - although many have been extended upwards into houses. The happiest days of my young life.
Thank you Singapore for the immense joy you gave a little girl, way back in the 1960'sl! I've returned twice over recent years and despite many changes, the heart of the Merlion still beats strong and the essence is still there!
I was born and lived in Singapore for 34 years before moving to Vancouver, Canada. I see what you are saying about the graffiti, drug and homelessness problem in Vancouver
I’ve always liked watching videos of ppl visiting Singapore. It makes me happy and proud to see ppl appreciate Singapore. Thanks so much for this video!
To add further to the above compliments, SINGAPORE is strict with hygienic preparations of food in food courts, stalls and restaurants. In order for us to enjoy ourselves, the food caterers have to adhere to the specific rules of our Health Standards . We discourage roadside food stalls where some health risks are compromised. Food courts are provided with clean piped water for food preparations, cleaning of utensils to be used, good sanitation etc. SOME countries in other parts of Asia may claim that their food is tastier than our local ones. Bear in mind that all food preparation must adhere to the Public Health requirements and if any person is found to be severely sick and it leads to the source of food purchased,then it involves public health authority to check on the source. Even party food has to indicate the time frame for the food to be consumed to risk any food poisoning due to expired time frame.
Only fine small amount of money if restaurants is unhygienic.. not strict at all..
KId, Have you live in the west ?
If you want to compare hygiene standards of SIngapore with the rest of SE Asia and South Asia, you are setting a very low bar.
That also has been compromised lately. Rats in some food establishments, unhygenic food preparation, unskilled workers brought in frm 3 rd world countries. You can train them all you want but the gutter mentality is ingrained!
A proud singaporean here! a good choice in starting at our national museum, hope you guys enjoyed your time! do remember to add a umbrella in your next trip (rain or shine, it will somehow STILL weirdly rain.. no matter what)
There are houses but it is super expensive to live in houses in Singapore. Singapore is small, limited land mass, hence we need to build upwards/ vertical (apartments). And, Singapore is safe (or safer) ... yes, even when compared to the other Asian countries that you had visited.
What I believe why Singapore is what it is, that we had ’Civics’ lessons incorporated into our educational programs.
Hello, Singaporean here!
We've actually been raised not to litter since we were young, same goes to our parents and so on.
There are definitely strict rules however not to the point where our "freedom" is taken away. I'd generally say that Singapore is definitely one of the safest countries but do keep in mind that there are never 0 police cases. There will definitely be some crimes here and there. There are a lot of Cameras all over. Be it on Traffic Lights, Light Poles or even some cases, just on building walls. Because of that, it prevents crimes to happen tenfold. And are always maintained that way.
I grew up in Germany, moved to Singapore 20 years ago. Lived in Canada, Toronto area, for three years in between. Yes, Singapore is absolutely great (and yes, Canada could need some version of Lee Kuan Yew)
Singapore got lucky with Lee Kuan Yew. What a leader!
Welcome to Singapore!
We still have littering problem but much lesser or less obvious lol.
To totally eliminate litter bugs is near impossible.
We have to thank our hard working cleaners to clean up our place🙏
All littering throw by foreigner worker and tourist.
@@jon8697 Yes n No. Friend you are rather rude & assertive to say ‘all’ but I do believe most are done by them based on my random observation 😁
Small minority, usually disgruntled uncles and teenagers especially one minority race who like to chill out at void decks, and South Asians nationals
is the minority race malay?@@SuccessforLifester
@@heeDeer 🤔😷
Thanks mum, for all the compliments and kind words.
Singapore wouldn't be where it is today without Mr Lee kuan Yew's leadership. So, you did the right thing by putting him at the start of your tour. I hope to visit Singapore again next year.
No. Singapore didn't succeed because of Lee Kuan Yew alone. He's important but Singapore did it with the collective efforts of all and an effective government. Pretty dumb to think LKY was the only reason why Singapore succeed.
Without his "LEADERSHIP" there won't be an "effective collective effort and government". So yeah, Singapore succeeded pretty much because of him! @@w.s.6837
@@w.s.6837 When did he say anything about LKY being the only reason for Singapore's success?
@@bigbossbiggis I was replying to the writer not the video
@@w.s.6837 Did he?
I’m Filipino and been living and working in Singapore in the last 12 years, all I can say is… it may look too good to be true, and it’s all TRUE!
The city is remarkable in many ways, been here 12 years and often, I still get impressed on how they continuously improve every thing. Worth every penny of the taxes I pay. I wish I could say the same thing about my own country. Enjoy Singapura!!
we just got to Manila!😁
Change your country's boss (from America to Singapore) and you will get a modern independent nation 😂
Thank you for your comment. We hope our fellow south east asians like Singapore, treat is as their second home and have plenty of decent singaporean friends.
Most foreigners may not know this but in my early years about 60 yrs ago, I remember Manila and Ceylon (Sri Lanka) were our development models. Later, these two beautiful places were destroyed by corrupted leaders and we started to model ourselves against the Japanese. These have been big lessons for most older Singaporeans who knew, understood and supported LKY and what he wanted to do for Singapore. It was a 2-way vision so we have to give credit to our fore-parents for having the same foresight to support the man.
Of course, there are landed properties in many parts of Singapore. Some of them are big & beautiful
if you have like 10 million to spare
@@ylw facts
@@ylwactually gcb start from 30mill and above
(good class bungalow)
You should have covered the HDB hub in Toa Payoh. They showcase our public housing planning, layout , designs etc. gives you a better insight in our daily lives
And also the food. There's actually pretty good food there
I have been to several countries but whenever I come back to S’pore, I feel totally comfortable. We, Singaporeans, are proud to stay in such a country whereby it’s safe. Very orderly, follow rules & even though not all, people will think twice before doing anything funny. When I heard the name LKY when I was overseas, feel so glad he had done so much for us, indeed a legend 👏
I lived here all my life…. And traveled a lot…. SG is one of the freest countries in the world…. Free from crimes, bullies, natural disasters, trash on streets…. My daughters can walk on the streets at midnight… and feel safe. We can say whatever we want (responsibly, not stir shit trash)….
Good video blog. One small correction Lee Kuan Yew was NOT President as you indicated but he was the Prime Minister.
And nor was he the founder.
One thing for sure. If there is no LKY, there will not be Singapore like today.
wrong. without jesus there would be no Singapore@@kohbenny4555
Thank you for your kind comments and we are pleased to have tourist like you visiting us. Hopefully you will have more opportunities in future to see some of our multi cultural kind of living in other parts of the island in future!❤❤ 😊
The safety and cleanliness is the among the best in the world. It's also named the green city. Of course nothing is perfect but it's good enough. Thanks for the visit hope you enjoyed your stay.
I think your assessment about Singapore is correct. There are cities that are better to be a tourist than a resident. And vice versa. Singapore is the latter. Been living here for 5 years. Lived in Hong Kong, Bangkok, Beijing, Tokyo, and Seoul. Out of these cities, Singapore is the best for families in my opinion.
If you want to see how people live in Singapore, take a round trip from on the MRT from City Hall to Woodlands to Jurong East and back to City Hall
Agreed. The only way to see our city. 😅
I have seen most of Singapore. Still better than a lot of major cities in the States.
I think the east side is nicer 😁
@@SuccessforLifesterEast side, best side.
The east side is boring tbh, my ex used to stay at Bedok but always ended up in the Central or West area.
My bf lives in Central but agrees that the West side has more food choices and things to do at night.
NUS, NTU, SUSS, SP, and NP are in the west too.💀💀 @@SuccessforLifester
Thanks for your kind comments on Singapore. I should say Singapore flourishes to such an extent of being a world class country in many aspects is due to the leadership of Mr Lee Kuan Yew and his peers. Hopefully generations of leaders that follows after him will govern with such love for Singapore
Selamat datang ke Singapura.
❤ your presentation..well space out yet delicately done ,seeing my Singapore through your eyes makes me a very proud but grateful Singaporean. Thanks for paying such a touching tribute to the late Mr. Lee Kuan Yew. Thank you, I am glad to bump into your travelog. Have an awesome time..Best wishes to you wherever you are now ..Cheers lovely family .❤🎉❤
Welcome to Singapore! Hope you had fun in Singapore. Thanks for your kind words. Without Mr Lee Kuan Yew, there would not be Singapore today.
Welcome to Singapore! Glad you enjoyed yourself. Just a little correction for you: Lee Kuan Yew had never been our president. He was our first PM and when vacated the position, he became Senior Minister and Minister Mentor.
As a Singaporean in France, our upbringing underscores the importance of responsible waste disposal and avoiding littering, a cultural norm among us. While at a bakery in France, my children, born and raised here, politely asked to use the nearby trash can for some items. The cashier praised their action, recognizing the value of teaching them about responsible waste management. This encounter highlighted how Singapore's commitment to educating citizens about proper waste disposal continues to make a lasting impression.
Singapore is so clean and well organized
Welcome to Singapore 🇸🇬
Thank you for your kind comments.❤
God bless you and your family 🙏❤
Welcome to SG, SG is definitely a pretty nice country but there is always room for improvement. Btw, SG is also a place where the east meets the west, do enjoy your stay.
U make me cry. I love my country so much.
Do enjoy your family vacation in SG. There is no city that is perfect, even near perfect is hard to come by, SG is heading towards that direction. With both the efforts of local people and foreigners residing in SG (40% of SG’s population are non-local), hope this will happen in no time.
I was born in Singapore n went to uni in Waterloo Canada where my relatives were residing. After graduation I had a job offer in Canada but decided to come back Singapore as my parents were still here. I went back to Canada few years ago to visit my relatives and I believe I made the right decision to return back to Singapore.
A lot of locals take what we hv in SG for granted. Many are frogs in a well just thinking that the grass is greener on the other side. There is no perfect society/country, but we do have much to be thankful for compared to other places.
Welcome and Thank you for visiting Singapore. We still run our country under development strategy set by Mr Kee Kuan Yew. We hope our fourth generations government team continues success keeping Singapore one of the best city to life.
I visited last week for my third time and couldn’t agree with you more
Singapore is very beautiful and it’s people very clean and educated
Hope to visit again soon
Thanks for being so appreciative. I believe that two of the reasons that made it possible for Singapore to progress, were racial harmony and the freedom of worship. While at the same time, strict law enforcement my have helped form the conscience of the people, resulting in a safe and clean environment.
This video put together well Steve and Ivana!! Well done. Brings me right back to being with you both in Singapore.❤ Keep safe, healthy and happy.
Hello I'm a Singaporean

Feel free to come back and visit the heartlands
Great video!
Loved this video :) thank you!

Incredibly happy to have you here in Singapore, and especially so when you come with your Dad and mum. You displayed filial piety at its best👍. Well we do have some not too glamorous and run down areas in Singapore but we are glad you didn’t get to see them, haha. But thanks for the kind remarks and we will continue to improve on those areas where we are lacking. Hope to see you in Singapore again!
Can’t wait for my next trip to SG next year February gonna be my 6th trip there the last 10 years. ❤❤😅
Welcome back!❤
@@shy3102 just excited mate, thanks cheers!
Welcome to Singapore
Dear Steve and family
...thank you for venturing into my tiny island and speaking so kindly of us. Def 18mins of awesomeness I dont regret
....Bless ya!!!
im glad you enjoyed your trip to singapore. About the attractions not being memorable, i think the next time you’re in gardens by the bay, do visit the cloud forest and flower dome instead. you can visit sentosa island and the mandai reserves too for a better experience! 😄
Been to Singapore 3 times, it is truly amazing especially around the marina at night. The city is very clean and tidy, and very safe for travel
I would to thank all the tourists like yourselves, showcasing the beauty and all marveling aspects that this tiny country has to offer, reminding me to be grateful for all these blessings around me. Been caught up in the ugly rat race from birth and really need these refreshing viewpoints to realign my visions of life every now and then! Hope you enjoyed your stay and for your next visit, do consider visiting the heartlands to experience the locals’ “common living environment” for something different! Alternatively, if you don’t mind the crowd, join us during the major festive periods or events like F1 night race to soak in the vibrancy we have to offer! Stay safe & God bless!
Glad you enjoyed Singapore!!
Bang on, can't agree more. This is about to go viral.
You should definitely take the MRT to the heartlands to see outside the business and shopping districts. Try the red or green lines and you'll be able to see how we live. Geylang will be slightly dirtier as some streets or lorongs is zoned as the unofficial red light district. You'll also get to see a good mix of old shophouses together with modern high rise developments called HDBs where most of the common people live.
Was a great city to visit! Well done Singapore ❤
Glad you were impressed during your visit. I'm reminded me not to take the things I've enjoyed here for granted. Do visit Singapore again soon.
It's wonderful to hear that you're having a great time in Singapore. One key aspect of staying in Singapore is respecting the local culture, as Singaporeans generally adhere to the law. Safety here is exceptional compared to many other countries. While we may encounter issues like drugs, illegal activities, and scams similar to elsewhere, Singapore effectively manages and controls these situations through its capable Police Force. If you plan on returning, explore residential neighborhoods to immerse yourself more in the local culture, as the central business area mainly caters to tourists and office workers.
Glad you have a great time in Singapore, towards your ending your lovely mom shared it was flawless. Maybe we can say that it really took time over many years to build in social awareness. From not littering or be mindful of others etc. Sometimes there are some imperfection but it is an ongoing process and there are always room for improvement.
We were in Singapore airport on transit, and had lunch there. Soup noodles was good, Sing$5.80. Beautiful airport!
I lived and worked in Singapore for 2 years.
Foreigners (we don't regard Malaysians as foreigners but brothers living in different houses just next door) have this misconception that Singapore had always been part of Malaysia. Malaysia gained independence in 1957 without Singapore. The following year, Singapore became a self-governing state and Lee Kuan Yew in 1959 led his party to win the first general election (universal suffrage, one-man-one-vote, democratic system) and became the first prime minister of Singapore. In 1963, he led Singapore to join Malaysia. Only having been part of Malaysia for two years, Singapore was forced to become independent in 1965.
One family Nusantara family (Malaysia Indonesia Brunei and Singapore), It doesn't matter what race you are but we are the ones who live on that land
Malaysians are foreigners, facts.
Same as well, Malaysian don't regards Singaporean as foreigners but our brother who is super successful living next door
Eh i do regard Malaysians as foreigners. The majority of us do, just as Malaysians regard Singaporeans as foreigners. Two countries can't be more different. The Malaysian govt supports HAMAS.
Welcome to Singapore! I wanted to mention a detail from your 2:03 video - Lee Kuan Yew served as the Prime Minister, not the founder or president. Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, a British colonial official, founded Singapore in 1819. Yusof bin Ishak, the face on our currency, became the first president after Singapore gained independence from Malaysia in 1965 following World War II. Cheers, and I trust you had a wonderful time in Singapore!
Welcome to Sg！😊
It's not so much the light shows of the Supertrees that's supposed to impress [although I do love watching lights] but that the trees are built to harvest solar energy and also to absorb carbon emissions - to contribute towards environmental concerns. Thank you for your compliments, and I hope you enjoyed yourselves here. Stay safe!

So glad you guys had a nice time in Singapore. Best wishes.
Nice video, I like it. Straight forward and honest.
People forgot someone equally as important as Lee Kuan Yew and that man is Dr Goh Keng Swee. He was like Singapore's best strategist back in those days.
Glad to see that you enjoyed the beautiful city of our Singapore. Yes we were taught with many different rules such as no littering and it really lifts the spirit here. Glad you enjoyed it! #SGPRIDE
If you go to heartland hawker centres, it would be half the price at that! Oh and welcome to Singapore!
Not half, they had 3 types of meat
Welcome to Singapore

Welcome to Singapore. This video is very positive. All food sure taste better, places or countries that you visit will be good with you and your family around. Try more different local food in Singapore and hope you enjoy. Singapore can be hot, drink more water and just get into the mall with aircon when feel hot.
