Thursday, May 31, 2007. When the British ruled Singapore they divided the Indians, Chinese and Malays into 'ethnic quarters' - today's Little India, the successor to the former Indian ethnic quarter of Chulia Kampong, has served the Indian community as the site of their temples, classical Indian music and dance centres, and restaurants for many years. Wednesday, May 30, 2007. There's a lively bar and club scene. Areas that come to life after dark are Tanjong Pagar, Mohammed Sultan Road, Boat Quay, Or...

Singapore Tourism information: Best time to visit Singapore
http://singaporetourisminformation.blogspot.com/2007/05/best-time-to-visit-singapore.html
Tuesday, May 29, 2007. Best time to visit Singapore. And Chinatown turns into a swarming sea of panic stricken last-minute shoppers. Then on the first day of the holiday, virtually everything Chinese closes - eateries, shops, businesses. Forget about it! Most reopen on the third day of the holiday, but many choose to stay closed for the full 2 weeks, the traditional amount of time for Chinese to observe this holiday. Not to fear! If you are visiting Singapore around Chinese New Year, there are a few thin...

Singapore Tourism Guide: June 2007
http://singaporetourismguide.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 1, 2007. I flew Cathay Pacific airlines and have no complaints about the service. In fact, they served premium ice cream on the flight, first time I have seen this on an airline and a nice touch. All prices are quoted in Singapore dollars. At the time I made this trip, $1.00 USD = $1.70 Sing dollar; $1 Sing dollar = 24 Baht. What can I say about Changi? Lonely Planet lists several budget accommodation options, but in their usual prissy manner they neglected to mention Geylang as a ghetto for...

Friday, June 1, 2007. We first traveled to Malaysia in November 2000 but back then we only had a short stop in Kuala Lumpur. When we started planning a spring trip we wanted to go to a beach destination. We first looked at the Philippines but we came to the conclusion that we wanted something more “mainstream”. So since we have friends in KL we decided to give Malaysia another try and check out the beaches there. Welcome to Kuala Lumpur (aka KL). How to get around KL? What is there to see in KL.
