buying a ;aptop

by rejslu

hi...I am from the Philippines and am wondering if it is cheaper to buy a laptop in Singapore rather than getting one here at home. Thank you for your replies....

There are plenty of laptops available at:
Sim Lim Square
Funan Centre
Courts
Best Denki
Harvey Norman

Cheaper in Singapore but depends on what excnahe rate your getting when you come here. Singapore dollar has been very strong last 2 years so things are more expensive for visitors.

Go to the notebook.com (?) store at funan center where there's a filipina in their staff (she's the cashier), she sold me a nice netbook with a bit more freebies that what they normally give away.

yes, it is cheaper here than buying in manila (though in Manila you can always get them on installment at BPI/Citibank sponsored fairs); don't forget to claim the GST refund, it will be quite a difference with the price in manila if you are able to claim this.

Travel Tips for Singapore

Chinatown Heritage Centre

by Kristina1701

This centre gives you a very good insight into the history of Chinese immigration into Singapore and about every day life in their new country/Chinatown, about the problems they faced etc.. Walk through their homes and hear what they've got to say.
I'm not that much into museums but I really liked this one very much and will definitely pay it another visit next time I'm in Singapore.

Getting Around

is an invaluable reference someone on VT told me about. You can map any location and find the nearest MRT station.
I found an art store and a park using it so I think its good for about anything.

HOT & HUMID

by DAO


Singapore is very near the Equator, surrounded by water and HUMID all year round. Plan accordingly. Wear cool comfortable clothes and stop into air conditioned hotels or shops from time to time to keep cool. Or you will look like this guy!

Christmas on Orchard Road

by trisanna

Late November to December is a great time to visit Singapore. They do a very impressive light display. I was really suprised how much money, time and decorations they put into making Orchard Road look Christmasy.

At the tanglin mall they have a display that spits out fake snow. Well it's really soap. But when it's flying in the air, it looks quite realistic. This is done at certain times. Also, a few times a week they have avalanche speed. I didn't see it coming down, but saw some kids covered in soap bubbles. Quite funny-not sure how they got home though. Hope they brought extra clothes.

Raffles city mall down by city hall also decorates.

Reverse bungy jump!!!

by itzypies

Singapore has the GMAX!!! its a reverse bungy jump.. not for the weak of stomach..
the thrill begins when you are ricocheted in the air.. up and down.. side to side..
the ride costs around 30SGD bring a mint or gum :D best to ride GMAX during night time to avoid too much heat..
