10 Things I Noticed In Singapore
- Everyone in Singapore is thin or fit – probably genocide or something, or they fine fat people or send them to Japan [where I found out maximum number of men have tits and they actually retail man-bras! *I’m not making this up*]
- Singapore is really kid-friendly – small things [literally] like having a low urinal in all loos, loads more indoor gyms and more
- Singapore is really special needs friendly – ramps with stairs, wheel-chairs on rent, etc.
- Singapore is really organized & structured, they have “how-to” instructions for everything – including how to wash your hands [and believe me you’ll learn something new]
- Everyone in Singapore likes to stand in line
- Even Indians – including Gujaratis – [don’t laugh, I’m married to one!] tend to behave themselves in Singapore – my theory is the threat of fines that does that [just like the threat of lashing/ flogging in Dubai]
- Everyone in Singapore prefers saying “Can” and “Cannot” vs. “Yes” and “No” [and most sentences end with a “Lah” like a “yaar”]
- Singapore is really tourism friendly and when they go after tourism, they really go after tourism – like in Sentosa, there will be 5 ways to get there [walk on a travellator, cable-car, car, bus, MRT/ train]; all local transport there are free; there are just incredible amounts of activity/ things to do that have especially been created there to boost tourism, and they keep at it, adding new attractions every year, right from Universal Studios, Anti-Gravity flying zones to Surfing lessons, beaches, artificial snow, skiing, elaborate science centres that make learning fun and more
- Everyone in Singapore is really well dressed – not just smartly dressed, but stylishly turned out with the best brands and more
- Everyone in Singapore is really polite – like if they’re really really angry they’ll probably say, “Ah, excuse me, but if you don’t mind and don’t think that its too much of a problem and not too inconvenient, then could you please screw yourself!”
