Phuket area is 570 Km2 with 424,000 population (ie less than 10% of Singapore)

1) Changi airport is world's best airport ( not busiest )
2) SIA is world's best airlines prepares 52,000 meals daily as compared to Qatar Airways 200,000 daily meals.
Then, bigger in sizes means preparing more meals, handles more workers and more responsibility handling international arrivals
Your Qantas operating from how many cities in Aussie huh? Divide that equally I think no comparison with SIA lah.
tomorrow will be a better day

Mon 12/23/2024,
Singapore has welcomed 15.13 million international tourists as of November, marking a 22% year-on-year increase, with China emerging as the city-state's largest source of visitors this year following its visa waiver policy."
https://e.vnexpress.net/news/travel/visa...r%20policy.
"In 2024, Thailand is on track to meet its government's goal of 36 million foreign arrivals. As of August 11, 2024, Thailand had already welcomed 21,796,763 foreign tourists.
The top five nationalities visiting Thailand during this period were:
China: 4,398,623 visitors
Malaysia: 3,021,624 visitors
India: 1,255,358 visitors
South Korea: 1,154,990 visitors
Russia: 1,035,192 visitors"
include M'sians that come over to work lah.................if S'pore has 15 million tourists - we'll be over-crowded liao...............Orchard won't be no business liao.............
15 million = over 41000 new tourists every day.............if they stay here 4-5 days each..............super crowded liao..............no space for Sinkies to even take MRT or take taxi......

Notably, Phuket doesn't need any casino or have to invite Taylor Swift to sing (it's silly idea).
Phuket only have Tiffany shows and beaches.

singapore has creasted new tourist attraction like garden by the bay.
one possible creation with wow is to create a beach with sand, man made diamond, crystal,
place like jurong lake when rebuild can have an area corner up as a beach with entry fee.
used very good grade sea sand. mix with man made diamond. people who go into beach and find diamond can register and carry off. put in new man made diamond to replace those taken off. as long as the entry fee collec tis more the cost of new diamond replacement it works.
can also mix sand with color sand. no need to limit sand to white. can have a blue/red/green etc color sand beach

I always remember what's my former Uni Economic Associate Professor says one number alone by itself has no meaning..
Imagine the impact of 15 vs 36 has literally forcing someone willingly to become an eunuch.

Who imposed these restrictions causing such a substantial loss in revenues and 21 mio lesser foreign visitors?
Is he/she ok or not?

Majority Tourists were impressed with Singapore beautifully written introductions and advertisements of all places of interest but sadly disappointed after seeing them.
As comparison, Phuket approach is truly more honest and down to earth.

Its totally ridiculous having to compare visitors arrival to Singapore, an advanced country to a remote small town in Thailand?
Where are those highly intelligent Singaporeans?

Majority of foreign visitors come to Singapore once and never come back again the 2nd X while they keep on returning to Phuket year after year, why?
What's really wrong with Singapore?
