1) There is no amazing tourist attractions
Even Mandai park is divided into 4 sites but cost much more than some countries
2) Shopping not Shiok like Thailand
Branded goods are expensive and tourist can buy it cheaper in other countries
3) Eating not shiok like Malaysia, HK, Shanghai or Japan
They also have alot of variety at cheaper price
4) Weather often hot and humid
Tourist come and suffer
Out 5 Airport terminals is built for domestic business to travel out in Asia, not for tourists.

Why do we need 5 Mayors and 80 PAP Ministers?

I seriously dunno what's there to see in Spore. Hotel, food, attractions entrance fees and luxury items are expensive compared to other countries.
The govt still see ourselves very up and keep increasing prices. Stupidity to the extreme.

Singapore just a space for foreigner to station and do business around SEA...because easy to transit.
Changi airport traffic can prove that thats the case for high traffic.

This is quite " misleading " come mainstream media report , sometimes....
they report " as if " a lot come Changi airpot = a lot tourist visit SG.
In fact more and more Airline companies provide direct flight aka means the tourist wanna come Asia no need do a transit at changi airport.

You see branded shops also lang lang. ![Rotfl Rotfl](https://sgtalk.net/images/smilies/Animated/rotl_s.gif)
If Sg cannot attract enough tourists, we will be in big trouble.
Japan and Thailand are going to build casino. Will steal lot of tourists from Sg.

If you compare the price of luxury goods here and HK, you'll find that it's much cheaper in HK. For a $2000 bag, I can easily get it for $1800 in HK.
Spore is like the rich kid who turned his nose up at others and declare to them that if they can't afford, they can dun come. But truth is, Spore has very few things to offer to others.

you think those from nearby nations really came in as tourists in the past?
my arse
was for them to apply for jobs during jo.teo time
that was why tourism high at that period
can find job
attend interviews
while on visitor pass
theres no nation like us which opened the legs as wide as possible like a whore during jo.teo time
now low tourists because
visitor pass not allowed to seek job and attend interviews like before

Biggest problem in sg for tourists is the cost of hotels. Just ridiculous. One day in four star hotel is almost $400. It's only about $100 in BKK and KL. Of course few tourists are going to be repeat visitors.
18-10-2023, 09:26 PM
Also the stup*d alcohol law, no drinking after 1030pm. All tourists must go to sleep early?

I was in HK recently and the five star hotel I stayed in only costs 200 plus per night.

last i know they claim is " tricky , hard on building T5 " indirectly means more money needed....
when people ask why build another Terminal? They claim is for " staging more air show " aside also got Office rental for logistic companies "

That day, I just asked a peekaboo classic bag, the sale personnel told me $6850.
You can get it much cheaper in Japan.
