Thank you so much Aria and Merle! It is such an honor to be able to show you guys around in our neighbourhood. I have always loved my hometown and I'm always happy to spend time here with family and friends. Can't wait to see what's next in the series 🎉 I love you guys so much!! Cheers 😊 p.s. danger lurks around anywhere you go at anytime of the day, just because a place seems safe we should always stay vigilant and take great care of ourselves, families and friends nevertheless :)
Good job Wesley 👏👏also noticed you spoke 3 languages... Power bro... Next time showcase haunted places like Yishun Park and perhaps neighbouring Sembawang like Kampung Wak Hassan 😂
i've lived in singapore my whole life and i'm starting to think maybe *i* need a tour of yishun too lol i've been there maybe twice in my life and only briefly AND i got lost in northpoint city lmaaaoo
This was SO DAMN FUN - wishing I could tear it up at senior night right now and cannot wait to come back to Singapore (and Yishun) again! 💚 thanks again, Wesley ✨
most tourists just stay in the city business area and this is one of the few videos where tourists are actually going into our local neighbourhoods and even with a local guide. So much more meaningful to really get to know sg
I love that even the "most dangerous neighborhood" in Singapore is just a joke - I wish we could say the same about some dangerous parts of the US! I had a wonderful time and yes, no Yishun killers got us!! Thanks for watching, CK!
@@Aria.Inthavong THANKS for the reply Aria! Been a long time! Actually considering pursuing college in America but my family and I are definitely concerned about safety especially since I am Asian and undoubtedly I will experience some form of racism there. Any advice to stay safe in America as an Asian? P.s I have been to America twice and loved it there. The culture is rich and lively like no other place on earth! However there is an undeniable and unfortunate safety risk especially for people of different ethnicities 😢
I'm a Singaporean living in the U.S. and sometimes watching you guys going to my hometown is very very interesting. At times we don't realize what we had until we see it through someone else eyes and yes it is so true that Singapore, no matter what time of the night it is, it is super safe compare to any other country. Girls as young as teenagers could hang out in their neighborhood late or through out the night. Sure we do have crimes happening but it is rare to come across danger. Singapore cost of living is high though. Especially housing and that is the sole reason why parents and children have to stay together. Retirement check ain't much either and so that's why till they are so old, you still see some people working just to survive.
Thank you for watching and sharing your perspective as a Singaporean overseas! I think your experience is very valuable and I'm glad that you're able to provide this insight from the experience of living in the US. There's always pros and cons to every country, and I appreciate your pragmatic look at this situation. Thanks so much for watching and leaving this comment!
This is not a video. This is a documentary!!! Love the fact that Merle has joined! Wesley is such a kind soul 😊 and Yishun doesn’t look dangerous at all to me 😮💚
Aww bless you, Nwazan! I'm glad you liked it that much! I really appreciate all your kindness and support. Excited for you to see the videos coming in 2022! And yes, Yishun wasn't that dangerous at all!!
Yishun being "dangerous" was more of a joke/meme to the locals as some of the main cases was happening only at Yishun like cat killers, random weird person doing weird stuff and etc at a short period of time. So we just end up make a joke like Build the Yishun wall and etc. But it is a pretty normal neighborhood like the rest of the place in Singapore. I think it started around 2015 to 2016 where a lot of cases pop from there. I think it started from the cat killer case and after that it started the ball rolling. So that how the meme of yishun being the Florida of Singapore was born.
Oh wow you guys were in my neighbourhood! Literally I can see you guys walking past my block of flats in this video! Yishun being "dangerous" is more of a meme to be honest. Sure we had a cat killer, and some foreigners committed murders here, but honestly those exist in other parts of Singapore too! And it's just as safe here in Yishun as any part of Singapore, as you already know how safe Singapore is. You can walk around in ANY part of Singapore in the middle of the night at 2am and nobody will bother you at all, and Yishun is no exception to that! As a female, I've taken that same walk you guys took from the station in this video to get home, in the middle of the night. Even when I was a kid or teenager, walking alone to that station to take the MRT to get to school.. It's safe! Edit: It's honestly so funny how shocked you guys were when you heard that you can leave your bags in public spaces in Singapore and nothing will happen to your belongings 🤣It's true, in Mcdonald's or at the library if you just leave your laptop and bags on the table to go to the toilet, you'll come back and find everything untouched. I guess as a Singaporean that's one of the things we take for granted because it's not even an issue you have to think about, until you travel and realise that you can't do that anywhere else! 🥰
this lol. Singaporeans are generally quite rule abiding so there’s generally respect for other people’s stuff, especially if it’s not too valuable (like a water bottle being used to reserve a spot). I think one of the few other places I’d feel as safe walking around at night is Japan. Hope you guys got to eat at some of the (many) good food spots around here! (p.s. for anyone who’s interested, i do think our HDB program is worth looking into. we’ve got one of the better public housing programs around and there’s some neat research out there about it.)
bro i literally went to budapest for vacation and when i was at the airport I dropped my glove cause it's freezing over here I didn't even take a minute but my glove was gone ☹️ I wish I was in singapore instead
@@rimasexplains oh man.. Once in Milan (near Duomo) .. A girl was carrying a shopping bag (I think was Prada or some other branded stuff she just purchased), someone seemed to accidentally drop ice cream on her shoes. She release her bag to wipe the ice cream off and another just dashed and grab her bag away. Seems like these criminals work in groups, like a syndicate.
Yesss! I totally agree, I feel like Yishun being the most dangerous is more of a inside joke that we all know. I feel like the more, “dangerous” ish place (obviously incomparable to other countries) in Singapore is geylang which is probably the other neighbourhood that he went to as mentioned in the video
Yes, Wesley was an amazing guide for sure!! I'm glad you liked the video, it means a lot to me coming from a Singaporean like you!! Thank you again and happy new year!
Just a quick correction that the singing at seniors’ night was in Mandarin, not Malay! Also Wes spoke to the seniors in Mandarin despite being ethnically Malay, and I think that captures our multicultural identity so well! ❤
Thanks so much for the correction, Nicolette! My subtitle editor got it wrong but we've fixed it! And thanks so much for watching. Wesley was definitely fantastic and highlighted the beautiful cultural melting pot that is Singapore!
Ahhh thank you Elizabeth! Thanks for your support as always! It definitely is by far the most wholesome one, hahaha - everything else is a lot more serious and a lot darker, so I wanted to take a little break from that for the holidays, haha!
I love these videos Aria, it is so fascinating seeing the inside of such communities. A lot of places seem misunderstood more than anything. If you ever find yourself in Puerto Rico try to find a connection to enter La Perla in San Juan. They consider it the roughest barrio on the island.
Thank you so much El1as! I'm glad to hear that you enjoy these videos - I have more similar content coming soon! I completely agree about so many places being misunderstood. I'd love to enter La Perla and film there for sure!!
I will go against most of the PC comments here and say that Yishun (along with the Northern neighbourhoods) are "rougher" than most of the south, east, or even west. The most commonly heard voices in the north seem to be Malaysian-accented mandarin, and Mainland Chinese-accented mandarin, which indicates the heavy immigrant population here. The Singaporeans here also tend to speak in their mother tongues rather than English, which a past report has shown as being co-related to lower social economic status in Singapore. When I first moved to the north from the east, I also had a shock at the number of heavily tattooed individuals and "ah bengs" here (tattoos per se are not an issue, but you know the hooligan type when you see them). There is also nowhere else in Singapore where so many e-scooters and bicycles buzz around on the footpaths dangerously. In my view, Yishun is indeed the worst non-red light district neighbourhood in Singapore. But I'd live here instead of an actual red light district like Geylang any day. Finally, I would also rather be in Yishun or Geylang rather than any large city in California, especially LA and SF (yes I've been there several times before and experienced the homeless scourge and open drug-taking there).
Similar experience from me as well, the only guy I know who was in a gang lives in Yishun, he's also the only person I know who has a bunch of tattoos with hidden meaning
Thanks so much for this perspective, RoadPillocks! It's always great to get a more nuanced take on Yishun and other similar neighborhoods, so this was really interesting and helpful to read. I appreciate you taking the time to watch and for sharing this. And yes, as someone who lives in LA, there are so many more dangerous places here than in all of Singapore!!
Yay another great video Aria and omg Wesley was wonderful! I'm amazed at how everyone is so sweet and caring there and also so helpful with the elderly, it's really heartwarming to see. It would be great if the rest of the world were more like that. Happy holidays you!!
Thank you so much, Courtney!! Wesley definitely was wonderful and I'm so grateful to have had him as a guide. My heart was certainly warmed too when seeing how the elderly were treated there. Happy Holidays to you as well, Courtney!!
Wesley's words were definitely very powerful and resonated with me as well - and I didn't even grow up in Singapore! I'm glad you found them moving. Thank YOU for watching and commenting, Takosauce! Happy New Year!
Thanks Wesley! It was great having a local set the record straight. I can relate somewhat because I live in the very safe and peaceful state of Vermont When people call a certain area “ghetto” it’s like they have no understanding of how good we have it here. People are generally friendly and courteous. People pick up garbage when they see it on the ground and if you were in a jam you can rely on strangers to help. Unfortunately there’s crime wherever you go in the world but I take comfort in knowing where I live the balance is in favor of good.
Another great video, I think it’s hilarious that the most ‘dangerous’ city in Singapore looks friendlier than most ‘safe’ places in the UK 😅 also, loved watching you and Merle interact, it’s so cute to witness! Thanks for the quality content, Aria. Much love to you both!
Thanks so much as always, Zafren! I feel the same way - it's so much friendlier than some of the "safest" places in the US for sure! Thanks for all the love and support, Zafren. Hope you had a beautiful holiday season!
Ah boy !!!! Thank you for bringing our friend for a tour in our beautiful Yishun…. I jog around Yishun 6-7 km 2 -3 times a week , late night… no worries …. It’s super safe.
Good on you for running so much, Samitune! I love that you run around Yishun too - I'd definitely feel safe running there as well! Thanks for watching :)
I use to live in Yishun (ChongPang area to be exact) and it's a nice neighbourhood and also interesting...Though it is said to be build on what use to be cematery ground, it use to be a quiet, safe and peaceful untill recently....especially with the cat kiling thing. Though my neighbour hurts cats so, I'll be rescuing them whenever I see it around, but he never kill cats. It's sad to here what is has come to be.
This is such a refreshing video, I wish cities I lived in were like this. Maybe when I was a kid, but not anymore. It is very refreshing to see a politician actually do so good for their home. Thank you for this
Senior's night was amazing, Becky!! Thanks so much for watching and supporting as always. It was great seeing you on stream today too! Happy Holidays, Becky!!
Such a great video! Havent seen the two of you in a long time and im so glad you guys made this! Whatsmore, exploring the country i live in, Singapore. I thoroughly enjoyed watching this video, and thanks Wesley for representing Singapore amd Yishun very well 👍👍
Thank you so much, Isaac! Really appreciate you watching and leaving this comment! Wesley was a great host and I'm so glad you enjoyed the video. Happy new year, Isaac! I hope you enjoy more of the content I have coming your way!
Ahhh thank you Wendell! Sorry I'm so late in replying, I'm just seeing this now, but I've definitely got some more content coming your way soon! Thank you for watching and commenting, it means a lot. Hope you're doing great!
wouldn't really say it's the most dangerous neighbourhood, yishun for the most part is very normal as far as singaporean neighbourhoods go. there are areas in other parts of the country filled with largely low cost rental apartments that are more dangerous (jalan kukoh, teck whye) but they're by and large still relatively safe.
Yes I definitely don't agree that it's the most dangerous, based on what I saw! That's just the label I saw most associated with it online! But it was definitely super safe!!
@@Johnne009 Geylang's reputation is very overblown. You think the girls would ply their trade there if the area was dangerous? They would have gone elsewhere already if that was the case.
The point he made about being able to leave your stuff and nobody steals it, apparently that's the same in Japan. It's a cultural thing. Businesses even leave packages in the street outside their shop to be collected.
Wow! 6 years! You must've eaten so well at the hawker centers for those 6 years, haha. I was only there for a few days in this video and I miss it a ton already! Thanks for watching though :)
That is the most dangerous city in Singapore? I honestly don’t think there is one town, city in the US that is that safe. I hope they don’t change it to much. And I’m so glad they have nightly activities for the seniors. Thank You Aria for another wonderful video!
Thank YOU for watching and leaving this lovely comment, Tamarin! I'm also glad they have nightly activities for the seniors and I do think that cities here in the US should certainly follow Singapore and Yishun's lead! Happy holidays, Tamarin!
Awesome!!! I've been to Yishun and honestly had no issues. I really feel areas that are government built worldwide are purposefully made out to be the "criminal" negative part of the city. When in reality they are the friendliest, most heartwarming, generous and easy areas to get on with.
Thing is, the entire country is government built. Yishun got its reputation not bc of state involvement and intervention. It’s from this almost never-ending reports of cats being brutally killed in the area from like a few years ago. And that’s not smth we see a lot here? Like no one particular estate ever makes the news so many times in a row for crime related stuff.
So angry that someone hurt that beautiful neighbourhood cat, what satisfaction would you even get from that. I just get so livid about this sort of thing.
Yishun looks more like a highly commercialized city in Metro Manila (PH) & not a dangerous neighborhood (It's a compliment). Plus I'm glad they captured that cat-killer. Sadly in the PH, some high end-establishments (not all) secretly kill off the stray cats that roam around in their area. They deny wrong-doing & claim they relocated them but there's no evidence of that. Sad reality. I love Yishun! I'll call Wesley if I ever need a tour hehe.
Thanks for watching and sharing these insights, Javi! It's really interesting to see parallels between Yishun and other Asian neighborhoods/cities. That's also really sad to hear about the stray cats being secretly killed off in PH. I wish there was a better system in place to handle the strays! And yes, call Wesley when you get to Yishun and he'll be a great guide for you!! Thanks again, Javi! Happy New Year!
Didn't realise Singapore has any dangerous neighbourhoods either! I guess every city has its seedy sides. Coming from Australia, I felt incredibly safe there and can't wait to go back
what a pleasant surprise to see one of my subbed channels doing a video on the place i grew up in between 2001 - 2015. Yishun is just a meme, the real danger to singaporeans is across the river, JB.
I'm happy that I was able to cover such a beautiful neighborhood that you grew up in!! What a great place to have grown up - I hope you're able to return in the future. Thank you for watching and commenting!
It’s interesting how we took a nice detour from France and landed in Singapore. No complaints, just surprised. Also, I’ve been to Singapore and it’s so much fun.
As a Singaporean, I can confirm that there are crazy things that happen in Yishun but not all the time, when its evening its very peaceful as a lot of people will go out and eat with their friends, family or relatives. Plus, the wet market people there are VERY FRIENDLY! You can bargain from 5 SGD to 3 SGD. The malay aunties are the most friendliest people there, in Singapore, especially Woodlands, people like to bargain a lot.
Thank you for watching and sharing your perspective as a Singaporean, Seages!! We didn't spend as much time at the wet market as I would've liked, but everyone was absolutely so friendly! What a beautiful time it was. Thanks again for watching, and happy new year!
9:21 I have heard of this as well. One hears the one-off story about poisoning dogs and purges of stray animals. I think some countries have negative attitudes towards animals and there are lax Animal Cruelty Laws.
Browsing through RUclips and found this video. I'm watching it and now I'm like......... YOU GUYS WALKED PASS MY HOUSE?!?! Yes I'm from Yishun and we have such a convenient neighborhood, we don't have to travel far to enjoy those facilities that others have I have old ladies below my block that mumble to themselves and there's one of them that insist you to call her a little girl ("xiaomei" in Mandarin) or else she starts scolding you in Hokkien (a dialect spoken here) So i understand how people see Yishun this way because even i have living examples right here, but they have never physically attacked anyone and everything else is fine
Thanks for watching, Will! Glad we could walk by your house, haha! You live in an amazing neighborhood, and I'm grateful to have spent time in it. I hope to return!!
Welcome to Singapore. I enjoyed your video about Yishun. I appreciate you guys visiting our heartland. There are many heartlands around singapore. Hope u guys enjoy your stay in singapore..
Thank you for the warm welcome, Sudhesh! We had an amazing time in Singapore and I'd certainly love to return to explore more of the heartlands around your amazing country. Thank you for watching and leaving this comment - I can't wait to share more content with you!
I have been to singapore a couple of times and i am just in love with the place and all its people. I stayed in Yishun the last time i was there. I have a friend who lives with his family there and i stayed at his place. I didn't even know Yishun was considered dangerous. Hahahaha! I would go out late at night on my own and just explore the neighborhood or eat. Singapore will always have a special place in my heart. And after moving here to the US i would gladly move to singapore in a heartbeat if i would be given a chance. Soon i will visit singapore again. And yep yishun too. 😊
Oh wow, Alex! I love that you went to Singapore and stayed in Yishun as I feel most tourists wouldn't have done that! I love that you got to have such a great and authentic experience by being there. I hope you get to return in the future and that I do as well!
I think the most dangerous place to visit is little India. Because you could fall down easily while looking at the sights and miss a step. Also there are many vehicles and human traffic all the time
Thank you for visiting :DD not too sure if anyone has corrected it already but at 17:06, the captions of the auntie should be "I nowhere to go, then I go where? Old already you know"
Wesley was incredible! But I'm sure your English is great too! Singaporeans are so impressively multilingual! Thank you for watching - I'm happy you liked it.
Was so excited when I saw Aria and Merle in SG on their ig stories. Saw this video, got so excited but also extremely confused why there'd be a dangerous neighbourhood😂 turns out its YISHUN lmao haha. Glad yall came to Singapore!!! & Wesley, thanks for repping us well! 💕
Hahaha I'm glad to give you a confusing surprise with this video about Yishun!! Thank you for watching, I'm so glad you watched this video and left this comment! Happy New Year, Pamela!!
I was taking a break for work and had a chance to visit the park in the morning. I see 5 groups of elderly doing exercises , mainly organised by the government. A great initiative. - meditation - yoga - taichi - fan dance - wooden sword martial art And they all look fit, not obese and has community. Some organised potluck breakfast after their activityand it's a pleasant sight!
Oh wow, that sounds amazing! What a great initiative indeed, Starshine! I love that they did a potluck too - truly a really pleasant and heartwarming sight that must have been. Community is so important for seniors and I'm happy they have it!!
This is such a cool video!! Just the cultural differences and such! Also sooo happy to see our vegan queen Merle finally back with her man Aria in the same video just made me so happy!!! Hope to see more from your journey and more content from our favourite couple soon too!! ❤️💖❤️💖
I'm glad you liked this video and found it cool, Melz! I enjoyed filming it and I'm excited for you to see more travel content from me!! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment this. Happy new year!
10:35 In Hindi and Bengali, you refer to an elder sister as ‘Didi’. It can be used in non-familial contexts although maybe ask someone before you use it.
It's a shame that Merle doesn't feel safe walking home alone in LA. I can understand as I've been there... In Australia things happen occasionally but I feel pretty safe
Wesley, you should bring them to our one & only Sembawang Hot Spring Water located just off Sembawang Road next to Yishun. I am sure they will be greatful after the long walk in our Neighbourhood. Anyway welcome to Yishun Singapore!❤🎉
about leaving ur bags unattended in sg, i do it all the time too and it's all good. but still, we shouldn't assume no one ever would! i wouldn't leave my passport and wallet etc, but would use something less valuable. my bottle alone does a great job :)
Hahaha yes, leaving a passport and wallet probably isn't the best idea, but it's still great to know you can leave pretty much anything else!! Thanks for watching, Alyssa! Hope you enjoy the future content too!
Oh wow, Zane Gaming! I love that we were close to your HDB Block! I had an amazing time in Yishun and I hope you enjoy living in this amazing neighborhood.
OMG I have missed 6 MONTHS of videos because RUclips sucks at life. I'll have to stay up and binge watch. But ending with this one because I want to watch in order.
@@Aria.Inthavong The reputation, like Yishun, is overblown just because of the ladies of the night. I mean, if the area was dangerous, would they still actually ply their trade there with Singapore's transport system? They would have moved. Fun fact. Geyland is also known to be the place in Singapore with the best food. If you do go there, go check out the food, seriously.
*So* excited! They don’t know much about Florida if that’s the neighborhood’s nickname tho. 🤣 Also? I want to hang out with that “70” year old lady you talked to. She’s adorable!
Hahahaha, that's a good point about Florida! And yes, the older lady was so fun! I wish she stuck around. Thanks for watching as always - and happy holidays!!
This neighborhood definitely didn't turn out to be really dangerous at all! So you were right to be surprised, Michael! Thanks for watching and commenting! Happy new year!

This is probably the most wholesome video on this channel! Loved it!
Ahhh thank you Elizabeth! Thanks for your support as always! It definitely is by far the most wholesome one, hahaha - everything else is a lot more serious and a lot darker, so I wanted to take a little break from that for the holidays, haha!
I love these videos Aria, it is so fascinating seeing the inside of such communities. A lot of places seem misunderstood more than anything. If you ever find yourself in Puerto Rico try to find a connection to enter La Perla in San Juan. They consider it the roughest barrio on the island.
Thank you so much El1as! I'm glad to hear that you enjoy these videos - I have more similar content coming soon! I completely agree about so many places being misunderstood. I'd love to enter La Perla and film there for sure!!
I will go against most of the PC comments here and say that Yishun (along with the Northern neighbourhoods) are "rougher" than most of the south, east, or even west. The most commonly heard voices in the north seem to be Malaysian-accented mandarin, and Mainland Chinese-accented mandarin, which indicates the heavy immigrant population here. The Singaporeans here also tend to speak in their mother tongues rather than English, which a past report has shown as being co-related to lower social economic status in Singapore.
When I first moved to the north from the east, I also had a shock at the number of heavily tattooed individuals and "ah bengs" here (tattoos per se are not an issue, but you know the hooligan type when you see them). There is also nowhere else in Singapore where so many e-scooters and bicycles buzz around on the footpaths dangerously. In my view, Yishun is indeed the worst non-red light district neighbourhood in Singapore. But I'd live here instead of an actual red light district like Geylang any day.
Finally, I would also rather be in Yishun or Geylang rather than any large city in California, especially LA and SF (yes I've been there several times before and experienced the homeless scourge and open drug-taking there).
Similar experience from me as well, the only guy I know who was in a gang lives in Yishun, he's also the only person I know who has a bunch of tattoos with hidden meaning
Thanks so much for this perspective, RoadPillocks! It's always great to get a more nuanced take on Yishun and other similar neighborhoods, so this was really interesting and helpful to read. I appreciate you taking the time to watch and for sharing this. And yes, as someone who lives in LA, there are so many more dangerous places here than in all of Singapore!!
Oh wow, interesting! I'd be curious to know what the hidden meanings behind the tattoos were!
Yay another great video Aria and omg Wesley was wonderful! I'm amazed at how everyone is so sweet and caring there and also so helpful with the elderly, it's really heartwarming to see. It would be great if the rest of the world were more like that. Happy holidays you!!
Thank you so much, Courtney!! Wesley definitely was wonderful and I'm so grateful to have had him as a guide. My heart was certainly warmed too when seeing how the elderly were treated there. Happy Holidays to you as well, Courtney!!
Fun fact: Chong Pang is the only HDB estate in Singapore where keeping cats as pets is legal 🐱
Omg what I didn’t know that ! I’m so jealous
Certain blocks of Chong Pang, and under the pilot scheme.
The Member of Parliament representing Chong Pang residents is the Minister of Law 😅
Oh wow, that IS a fun fact! Thanks for watching and sharing, Endi!!
I didn't know that either!
20:12 Wesley's words resonated with my feelings growing up in Singapore. Thank you❤
Wesley's words were definitely very powerful and resonated with me as well - and I didn't even grow up in Singapore! I'm glad you found them moving. Thank YOU for watching and commenting, Takosauce! Happy New Year!
Thanks Wesley! It was great having a local set the record straight. I can relate somewhat because I live in the very safe and peaceful state of Vermont When people call a certain area “ghetto” it’s like they have no understanding of how good we have it here. People are generally friendly and courteous. People pick up garbage when they see it on the ground and if you were in a jam you can rely on strangers to help. Unfortunately there’s crime wherever you go in the world but I take comfort in knowing where I live the balance is in favor of good.
Yes, Wesley was a fantastic guide to show us the beauty of this amazing neighborhood. I'd love to visit Vermont as well someday!
Aww this was such a sweet video. I know a group of people who went to Singapore recently for wrestling and they all raved about their time there.
I'm glad you thought so, Karen! I don't know much about the Singaporean wrestling scene, but I do know they're big with MMA, so that makes sense!
This got me teary eyed wish all cities are like Yishun taking care of the elderly
I agree, Coffee Wine! I really care for the elderly so it also made me emotional seeing how well they take care of theirs in Yishun (and Singapore!)
Another great video, I think it’s hilarious that the most ‘dangerous’ city in Singapore looks friendlier than most ‘safe’ places in the UK 😅 also, loved watching you and Merle interact, it’s so cute to witness! Thanks for the quality content, Aria. Much love to you both!
I live in Yishun ave 9
Thanks so much as always, Zafren! I feel the same way - it's so much friendlier than some of the "safest" places in the US for sure! Thanks for all the love and support, Zafren. Hope you had a beautiful holiday season!
Oh how cool! do you like it there?
What do you mean safe??!! They were the victim of a walk by chatting! How scary! lol.
That looked like a superb trip, with so many lovely interactions.
It was an amazing trip and I'm so glad you enjoyed watching this snippet of it and our interactions, Simon! Thank you!!
Ah boy !!!! Thank you for bringing our friend for a tour in our beautiful Yishun….
I jog around Yishun 6-7 km 2 -3 times a week , late night… no worries ….
It’s super safe.
Good on you for running so much, Samitune! I love that you run around Yishun too - I'd definitely feel safe running there as well! Thanks for watching :)
I use to live in Yishun (ChongPang area to be exact) and it's a nice neighbourhood and also interesting...Though it is said to be build on what use to be cematery ground, it use to be a quiet, safe and peaceful untill recently....especially with the cat kiling thing. Though my neighbour hurts cats so, I'll be rescuing them whenever I see it around, but he never kill cats. It's sad to here what is has come to be.
This is such a refreshing video, I wish cities I lived in were like this. Maybe when I was a kid, but not anymore. It is very refreshing to see a politician actually do so good for their home. Thank you for this
Senior's night seems like the sweetest place ever with the best vibes 💖 another banger video!!
Senior's night was amazing, Becky!! Thanks so much for watching and supporting as always. It was great seeing you on stream today too! Happy Holidays, Becky!!
@@Aria.Inthavong no problem at all! Been loving the scambaiting!! Happy holidays ☺️
Such a great video! Havent seen the two of you in a long time and im so glad you guys made this! Whatsmore, exploring the country i live in, Singapore. I thoroughly enjoyed watching this video, and thanks Wesley for representing Singapore amd Yishun very well 👍👍
Thank you so much, Isaac! Really appreciate you watching and leaving this comment! Wesley was a great host and I'm so glad you enjoyed the video. Happy new year, Isaac! I hope you enjoy more of the content I have coming your way!
lovely video, i learned so many new things and yall are so funny and adorable
Aww yay, I'm glad you learned new things, Crispy Liza! More to come in 2023!!!
Awww what a sweet fun episode with Wesley and Merle 🫶🏻🫶🏻 I love Singapore
Thank you Julie!! I loved sharing this experience with Merle and Wesley, so I'm glad you enjoyed seeing them too! I love Singapore as well!!
I love your content, Aria. Keep 'em coming! Stay safe. 🙌
Ahhh thank you Wendell! Sorry I'm so late in replying, I'm just seeing this now, but I've definitely got some more content coming your way soon! Thank you for watching and commenting, it means a lot. Hope you're doing great!
THAT'S MY LIL BROOOOO wesleeeey !!! well thanks fot showin Singapore really well yak wish you can Explore Indonesia soon Especially SURABAYA !!
Wesley is a legend and was an amazing guide!! Indonesia is high on my list, so I will definitely make it there later in the year, I promise!!
i literally was watching this yesterday and i looked at news today to see a man was holding a lady at knife-point at yishun 😭😭😭😭
I just saw it! What is up with this place 😶 ruclips.net/video/Dg0yReuzbg4/видео.html&si=EnSIkaIECMiOmarE
I saw something about that on Instagram that Wesley shared!! I hope she ended up being okay??
@17:05 she said "Nowhere to go. Go Where?" rather than "Go away" its singapore colloquial speech and rhetorical for 'Where should i go?"
Oooh thanks for the clarification, Angus! And thank you for watching too!!
wouldn't really say it's the most dangerous neighbourhood, yishun for the most part is very normal as far as singaporean neighbourhoods go. there are areas in other parts of the country filled with largely low cost rental apartments that are more dangerous (jalan kukoh, teck whye) but they're by and large still relatively safe.
Try geylang
Would love to visit Geylang in the future!
Yes I definitely don't agree that it's the most dangerous, based on what I saw! That's just the label I saw most associated with it online! But it was definitely super safe!!
@@Johnne009 Geylang's reputation is very overblown. You think the girls would ply their trade there if the area was dangerous? They would have gone elsewhere already if that was the case.
The point he made about being able to leave your stuff and nobody steals it, apparently that's the same in Japan. It's a cultural thing. Businesses even leave packages in the street outside their shop to be collected.
I wouldn't be surprised, I know Japan has a very respectful culture!
Man I already miss Singapore, I used to live there for 6 years and just seeing yall being at the hawker center made me feel so jealous
Wow! 6 years! You must've eaten so well at the hawker centers for those 6 years, haha. I was only there for a few days in this video and I miss it a ton already! Thanks for watching though :)
Merle has a Fjallraven Bag. That’s absolutely fabulous!
That is the most dangerous city in Singapore? I honestly don’t think there is one town, city in the US that is that safe. I hope they don’t change it to much. And I’m so glad they have nightly activities for the seniors.
Thank You Aria for another wonderful video!
it’s not the most dangerous city in SG, Singapore itself is one entire small city 😂
Yishun is a neighbourhood not a city
Indeed!
Thank YOU for watching and leaving this lovely comment, Tamarin! I'm also glad they have nightly activities for the seniors and I do think that cities here in the US should certainly follow Singapore and Yishun's lead! Happy holidays, Tamarin!
hiiiii luvly couple!! Very informative vid!!
Thank you, Doro!! I'm glad you enjoyed watching the video and found it informative! We'd love to return to Singapore soon!
Awesome!!! I've been to Yishun and honestly had no issues. I really feel areas that are government built worldwide are purposefully made out to be the "criminal" negative part of the city. When in reality they are the friendliest, most heartwarming, generous and easy areas to get on with.
Bloo you've been everywhere!!
@@merleoneal5360 lol not quite but lots around Asia lol 😂
Thing is, the entire country is government built. Yishun got its reputation not bc of state involvement and intervention. It’s from this almost never-ending reports of cats being brutally killed in the area from like a few years ago. And that’s not smth we see a lot here? Like no one particular estate ever makes the news so many times in a row for crime related stuff.
In sg EVERYWHERE is gov built ahhahaha
I'm so glad to hear that you also had a positive experience in Yishun, Bloo!!
So angry that someone hurt that beautiful neighbourhood cat, what satisfaction would you even get from that. I just get so livid about this sort of thing.
I know, it's very disturbing!
Awww this was such a sweet episode. Love the host🎉❤
I'm glad you found this video sweet, Afrinaut! Thanks so much for watching! And yes, Wesley was an amazing host!
This was so fun to watch. Now I really want to add Singapore to my bucket list
I'm glad you found this fun to watch! I hope you can make it to Singapore in the future to cross it off your bucket list!!
Yishun looks more like a highly commercialized city in Metro Manila (PH) & not a dangerous neighborhood (It's a compliment). Plus I'm glad they captured that cat-killer. Sadly in the PH, some high end-establishments (not all) secretly kill off the stray cats that roam around in their area. They deny wrong-doing & claim they relocated them but there's no evidence of that. Sad reality. I love Yishun! I'll call Wesley if I ever need a tour hehe.
Thanks for watching and sharing these insights, Javi! It's really interesting to see parallels between Yishun and other Asian neighborhoods/cities. That's also really sad to hear about the stray cats being secretly killed off in PH. I wish there was a better system in place to handle the strays! And yes, call Wesley when you get to Yishun and he'll be a great guide for you!! Thanks again, Javi! Happy New Year!
This was an amazing video ❤ I’m glad you enjoyed being in my hometown Yishun 🥺❤️
Aww thank you! I'm glad you liked the video! Thanks for watching and leaving this comment!
Didn't realise Singapore has any dangerous neighbourhoods either! I guess every city has its seedy sides. Coming from Australia, I felt incredibly safe there and can't wait to go back
what a pleasant surprise to see one of my subbed channels doing a video on the place i grew up in between 2001 - 2015. Yishun is just a meme, the real danger to singaporeans is across the river, JB.
I'm happy that I was able to cover such a beautiful neighborhood that you grew up in!! What a great place to have grown up - I hope you're able to return in the future. Thank you for watching and commenting!
It’s interesting how we took a nice detour from France and landed in Singapore. No complaints, just surprised. Also, I’ve been to Singapore and it’s so much fun.
Yes, it was a surprise content detour!
As a Singaporean, I can confirm that there are crazy things that happen in Yishun but not all the time, when its evening its very peaceful as a lot of people will go out and eat with their friends, family or relatives. Plus, the wet market people there are VERY FRIENDLY! You can bargain from 5 SGD to 3 SGD. The malay aunties are the most friendliest people there, in Singapore, especially Woodlands, people like to bargain a lot.
Thank you for watching and sharing your perspective as a Singaporean, Seages!! We didn't spend as much time at the wet market as I would've liked, but everyone was absolutely so friendly! What a beautiful time it was. Thanks again for watching, and happy new year!
9:21 I have heard of this as well. One hears the one-off story about poisoning dogs and purges of stray animals. I think some countries have negative attitudes towards animals and there are lax Animal Cruelty Laws.
Merle looked very suspicious when she asked "Did they find the person that did it?"
Merle is the Yishun Cat Ripper: CONFIRMED!!
CASE CLOSED!!! Great work, Catsadilla!
Loved the video!!!!
So glad that you did, David! Thanks for watching and taking the time to let me know!
I love these videos so much! I hope you cover Egypt!
Thanks so much, it makes me happy that you like them! Egypt is a country I'm looking at, yes!!
Browsing through RUclips and found this video. I'm watching it and now I'm like......... YOU GUYS WALKED PASS MY HOUSE?!?! Yes I'm from Yishun and we have such a convenient neighborhood, we don't have to travel far to enjoy those facilities that others have
I have old ladies below my block that mumble to themselves and there's one of them that insist you to call her a little girl ("xiaomei" in Mandarin) or else she starts scolding you in Hokkien (a dialect spoken here)
So i understand how people see Yishun this way because even i have living examples right here, but they have never physically attacked anyone and everything else is fine
Thanks for watching, Will! Glad we could walk by your house, haha! You live in an amazing neighborhood, and I'm grateful to have spent time in it. I hope to return!!
Welcome to Singapore. I enjoyed your video about Yishun. I appreciate you guys visiting our heartland. There are many heartlands around singapore. Hope u guys enjoy your stay in singapore..
Thank you for the warm welcome, Sudhesh! We had an amazing time in Singapore and I'd certainly love to return to explore more of the heartlands around your amazing country. Thank you for watching and leaving this comment - I can't wait to share more content with you!
I have been to singapore a couple of times and i am just in love with the place and all its people. I stayed in Yishun the last time i was there. I have a friend who lives with his family there and i stayed at his place. I didn't even know Yishun was considered dangerous. Hahahaha! I would go out late at night on my own and just explore the neighborhood or eat.
Singapore will always have a special place in my heart. And after moving here to the US i would gladly move to singapore in a heartbeat if i would be given a chance.
Soon i will visit singapore again. And yep yishun too. 😊
Oh wow, Alex! I love that you went to Singapore and stayed in Yishun as I feel most tourists wouldn't have done that! I love that you got to have such a great and authentic experience by being there. I hope you get to return in the future and that I do as well!
Great video as always.
Thanks so much, Niven! That means a ton, I'm glad you liked it!! Happy holidays!
Happy holidays to you and yours too
I LOVE THIS VIDEO SO MUCH!
I LOVE YOUR SUPPORT, TRISH!
Its always delightful to see you and Merle together in a video. Such a wholesome video 🥰
I'm glad you enjoyed seeing us in this video together, Trushita! Hopefully you'll see us in more videos together in the future!
I think the most dangerous place to visit is little India. Because you could fall down easily while looking at the sights and miss a step. Also there are many vehicles and human traffic all the time
Hahaha the sights in Little India really are beautiful and can be distracting!! Thanks for watching and commenting, Sean!
17:05 the auntie said "go where, I'm old already you know" 😊 hahaha
She was so sweet!
Thank you for visiting :DD not too sure if anyone has corrected it already but at 17:06, the captions of the auntie should be "I nowhere to go, then I go where? Old already you know"
Thank you for watching and leaving this helpful comment, Xin Yu Lok! Let me get that fixed! Thank you again and happy new year!!
As a Singaporean reading the title of this video, I was like, Since when did we have a dangerous neighbourhood. Lol.
Hahaha and this video definitely proved that you DON'T have one! Thanks so much for watching. Loved being there!
Love the vid! I am impress with how well spoken Wesley is! If me, it’s probably gonna be full of Singlish! Hahhahaha
Wesley was incredible! But I'm sure your English is great too! Singaporeans are so impressively multilingual! Thank you for watching - I'm happy you liked it.
The first Singapore female president also owns a flat in yishun. 😂😂
I bet it was a treat to meet all the Seniors enjoying themselves.
It definitely was!
welcome to YISHUN!!! even tot theres soo many happenings, but theres many hidden gems too
Thank you, Ziyao! I loved being in Yishu and would love to discover more of its hidden gems in the future!
Me and my friend have a joke where we name Yishun, the "Gotham" of Singapore, but my Grandpa lives in Yishun so I'm sure it's pretty safe.
Hahahaha, I love that! I hope your grandpa loves it there - maybe we saw hi at the Senior's Night!
Merle: "It's so funny he doesn't tell me about these horror stories until we get dropped off" I'm dead😂😂
Hehehe I didn't want her to back out! Thanks for watching, Tree Spirit!
Was so excited when I saw Aria and Merle in SG on their ig stories. Saw this video, got so excited but also extremely confused why there'd be a dangerous neighbourhood😂 turns out its YISHUN lmao haha. Glad yall came to Singapore!!! & Wesley, thanks for repping us well! 💕
Hahaha I'm glad to give you a confusing surprise with this video about Yishun!! Thank you for watching, I'm so glad you watched this video and left this comment! Happy New Year, Pamela!!
I was taking a break for work and had a chance to visit the park in the morning. I see 5 groups of elderly doing exercises , mainly organised by the government. A great initiative.
- meditation
- yoga
- taichi
- fan dance
- wooden sword martial art
And they all look fit, not obese and has community. Some organised potluck breakfast after their activityand it's a pleasant sight!
Oh wow, that sounds amazing! What a great initiative indeed, Starshine! I love that they did a potluck too - truly a really pleasant and heartwarming sight that must have been. Community is so important for seniors and I'm happy they have it!!
This is such a cool video!! Just the cultural differences and such! Also sooo happy to see our vegan queen Merle finally back with her man Aria in the same video just made me so happy!!! Hope to see more from your journey and more content from our favourite couple soon too!! ❤️💖❤️💖
I'm glad you liked this video and found it cool, Melz! I enjoyed filming it and I'm excited for you to see more travel content from me!! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment this. Happy new year!
Aria and Merle with all my respect I think you were the kidnappers in there lol
hehehehehe 😈😈😈😈
17:37 I think he's singing in Chinese or a Chinese dialect, but not Malay
Yes, I fixed that subtitle error, thank you!!
10:35 In Hindi and Bengali, you refer to an elder sister as ‘Didi’. It can be used in non-familial contexts although maybe ask someone before you use it.
It's a shame that Merle doesn't feel safe walking home alone in LA. I can understand as I've been there... In Australia things happen occasionally but I feel pretty safe
Yes, it's a real shame, unfortunately lots of places in the US aren't the safest to walk alone.
Wesley, you should bring them to our one & only Sembawang Hot Spring Water located just off Sembawang Road next to Yishun. I am sure they will be greatful after the long walk in our Neighbourhood. Anyway welcome to Yishun Singapore!❤🎉
Oooh what is the Sembawang Hot Spring Water? It sounds amazing! Thank you for the warm welcome and for watching though 🙂
If Yishun is the most dangerous neighbourhood in Singapore, I got nothing to worry about.
You absolutely do not, Valya, hahaha!
about leaving ur bags unattended in sg, i do it all the time too and it's all good. but still, we shouldn't assume no one ever would! i wouldn't leave my passport and wallet etc, but would use something less valuable. my bottle alone does a great job :)
Hahaha yes, leaving a passport and wallet probably isn't the best idea, but it's still great to know you can leave pretty much anything else!! Thanks for watching, Alyssa! Hope you enjoy the future content too!
Man this place is lookin' good.
Singapore is AMAZING! Even better than it looks!
Great video! I want to visit😊
Thank you, Bobbi! I hope you're able to visit it in the future! Happy holidays and thanks for all the support this year, Bobbi 💛
Note to Self: Avoid a trip with Aria if he doesn’t tell you all the details.
No dangerous neighbourhoods for me lmao
aria sounds EXACTLY like the vogue 73 questions guy
Hahaha I've never heard that before, Jasmine! Fun catch!
The old man and lady were sooooo sweeeeet
They were amazing!!! Thanks as always for watching and supporting 💛
@@Aria.Inthavong thank you for working hard to make these amazing videos 💜
Hey guys hahahas you were having dinner near my HDB block. 🤣👍 hope you had fun in Yishun.
Oh wow, Zane Gaming! I love that we were close to your HDB Block! I had an amazing time in Yishun and I hope you enjoy living in this amazing neighborhood.
Ouh ma gawddd I love you guysssssssssss !!
Sending lots of love back to you!! Thank you for watching, and I hope you have a great end to 2022!!
OMG I have missed 6 MONTHS of videos because RUclips sucks at life. I'll have to stay up and binge watch. But ending with this one because I want to watch in order.
Aww bless you for watching all the videos! I wish RUclips had notified you about those videos in time!!
Wow this city just seems like one you would wish you lived in.
It's an INCREDIBLE city for sure! Thanks for watching Astro Wolvez! Really appreciate you watching and leaving all these comments!
0:14 Where’s the White Crescent and the Stars?
Wow! How would someone consider this Singapore's most dangerous neighborhood? I would love to visit!!!!
I had an amazing time there! I hope you're able to visit someday! Thanks for watching in the meantime :)
wesley i love you!!
Wesley is a legend for sure, aeriqah!!
We need more of theseeee Merlia ❤❤❤
We have more travel content coming out together for sure! Thank you so much for watching and wanting more!
Geylang red light district and popular sleazy clubbing areas are far more dangerous.
I haven't checked those out but will have to look into them! Thanks for watching, Pawpaw!
@@Aria.Inthavong The reputation, like Yishun, is overblown just because of the ladies of the night. I mean, if the area was dangerous, would they still actually ply their trade there with Singapore's transport system? They would have moved. Fun fact. Geyland is also known to be the place in Singapore with the best food. If you do go there, go check out the food, seriously.
*So* excited! They don’t know much about Florida if that’s the neighborhood’s nickname tho. 🤣
Also? I want to hang out with that “70” year old lady you talked to. She’s adorable!
Hahahaha, that's a good point about Florida! And yes, the older lady was so fun! I wish she stuck around. Thanks for watching as always - and happy holidays!!
MISS U TWOOO TOOO MUCHI😭🤍
We're happy to hear you enjoyed seeing us together again here!
Welcome to Singapore!
Thank you for the warm welcome, James! I would love to return in the near future!
Wesley looks a bit like Leslie Cheung of Hong Kong
This neighborhood definitely didn't turn out to be really dangerous at all! So you were right to be surprised, Michael! Thanks for watching and commenting! Happy new year!
@@Aria.Inthavong Hey you commented on the wrong person
nice to see merle and aria
I'm happy to hear that! Nice to see you too!

i got taunted by a gang 2 times while coming back from work .....a few years back.....but i loved the Chong Pang nasi lemak....
