Hi brother!

 

I know you’ll really enjoy Singapore. Such a melting pot of cultures and food. My best tip is to eat at the renown Hawker Centres. Very cheap and delicious food. I also enjoyed the free city walking tours. You learn so much from a local about the history and the people. Just google free city walks. The Botanic Gardens was free also, just a small fee for the orchid garden, which was worth it. 
 

Use the extensive MRT trains and buses to get around. At the airport buy your MRT card (machines everywhere) before catching the train in to town. It’s a compact city so you can also walk to a lot of the sights. 
 

Lastly, a cheap view for only $6 is from the top of the Duxton Pinnacles public housing complex. https://www.visitsingapore.com/en_au/see-do-singapore/architecture/modern/pinnacle-at-duxton/

 

Sorry, can’t help with the meetings info.  Enjoy your trip!

Hello brother & sister,

 

Yes i agree! Singapore is a beautiful country to visit even we plan for next year 2023.

Just let you know Singapore government ban the worship of Jehovah.

Some brothers and sisters are still in jail there.

That's why you can't find any congregation in public, all meetings are ...chut!

Love,

[Michał]
