Better cuisine…Both have lots of restaurants specializing in different cuisines around the world. However, if you meant by local cuisine.. Thailand definitely! Though I’m quite partial to Singapore’s Hainanese Chicken Rice…
There’s a lot of places to explore in Thailand. It’s similar to the Philippines: they have mountains, beaches, rural provinces, urban jungles. Singapore, however, is a great city to acclimate if you’re from a first world country off to jaunt around Asia. The city-state is a great fusion of eastern and western culture. But the country is really very small, so you can finish exploring it in a week (less if you’re on a budget).
The Great Singapore Sale is an annual event during late May to early July. Almost all shops participate, and give discounts starting at 30% going up to 70-80%.
]]>Oh yeah, out of those places—which has the better cuisine? Are they similar? Singapore sounds expensive, but I bet the place is worth every dime. Also, what’s the Great Singapore Sale?
]]>Based on my research, dorm rooms in Singapore hostels is around SG$18-20 per bed, per night. For a private room with a double bed (not sure about the ensuite toilet and bath) and airconditioning, it’s around SG$50.
Malaysian hostels starts at around MYR 25 (dorm) to around MYR 40 – 50 (single).
I’m lucky because I never had to pay for accomodation in Singapore because my brother lives there ^_^ Singapore is pretty expensive, but there are a number of free events and attractions so you can stick to your budget. The Great Singapore Sale is awesome! Well, the prices are definitely not as low as the goods in the Philippines or Thailand, but you can still get great discounts on stuff that would normally be out of your budget. There are also special discounts for tourists!
