After done with the passport, cross over the bridge, finally reach Singapore after 10 years. Before entering the building, i saw a lot of motorcycle going through customs. It sure lot of people from Malaysia wake up early going Singapore for work and earn SGD which 2.4 time more value than RM. As usual, passport checking at Singapore customs, the building seem old but still in good shape.
My parent and I will going to stay at relative house. we go there by taxi cause it is still early which was 6 something in the morning. There are many people waiting for taxi but there are enough taxi for everyone. It come as soon as one gone. When enter the taxi, i remember one of my memories about taxi, they are using taxi meter at that time. now more electronic device install inside the taxi. Our country still struggle about problem regrading taxi driver not using the meter or the meter had be modify for unfair fare. I think i can only see taxi meter use in kuala lumpur. When reach my relative house, i can see LRT nearby. It is very convenience to the people.
1st day i went to visit my friend in University which is NTU. From my relative house, we went to a shopping mall near NTU call Jurung Point. at the ground floor of the shopping mall, got a integrated bus station. From there i ride bus to enter NTU. From my observation, 99.9% of public transport users were using Ezlink card similar to touch n go in Malaysia. Using the card is cheaper compare with using money to buy ticket.
hmm...NTU quite nice, pavement got shelter, room key using student card scan on the handle to unlock the door, room got air cond, nice cafe environment, good facilities, many type of cafe provided, library provide "cc service", borrow book just with a scan and etc. Very different from my campus.
On the second day and third day, i went 2 both of the Singapore casino. The 1st one is in sentosa, is own by genting name result world sentosa, there got a lot of tourist attraction especially for family member. One of it is universal studio. The universal studio entrance fees is SGD 68 but it offer a 5 dollar ticket which only can visit and no game to play. Still got firework to view.
The 2nd casino located at marina bay. It got different attraction compare with sentosa. At there got a eye of singapore, a marina bay sands(hotel) double helix bridge design and etc. Singapore really got a lot of tourist attraction. i wonder what are the KL attraction?
last stop was at Changi airport. I havnt went to KLIA before, so cant compare both airport. Sure seem nice and beautiful. after that, we went to sentosa again to complete unfinish task, taking photo. ( raining when the 1st time visit) After taking all the photo, going inside the casino. Although there are lot of thing to play in Sentosa, i play nothing. Inside casino, watching people gambling, most of them really gambling not playing with math. Devil sound inside me persuade me to play. I can resist cause my parent were there. Maybe i will have chance to play some day. Most probably after graduate.
Most of the travelling were by MRT/LRT, bus. I can say singapore public transport is very well integrated. Just by using a card, i can travel around singapore. Around the city provide pavement for people to walk. With very high utilization rates of public transport there, you will see no car on road. It is not an ordinary road. It is orchard road, city centre of singapore. Maybe other reason such as new tourist attraction but it is like unbelievable. Good Leaders lead to good governance. Economy, currency, cleanness, enforcement, city planing, technology, development, education and tourism. Inside MRT i heard a 4 language precaution for user: MIND THE GAP, 小心空憩， BERHATI-HATI DI RUANG PLATFORM and Tamil language( i duno )
One day Malaysia will be as excellent as Singapore.
