Singapore should also follow such ideas. But to make it right for us, we should slap a fee if people only transit and never stay to tour Singapore. For those that tour or stay in sgyfor 3 days or more, we then give them some incentives, eg discounted SIA flights to their next destination.

I think PAP will only charge sinkees a big fee for going overseas for holidays. Just like casinos.

PAP will never make things difficult for foreigners.

Of course things are much cheaper than Singapore, cos of our strong Singdollar.  Also the standard/cost  of living is lower than Singapore........
