Good Day everyone, The Science Centre & Omni-Theatre located at Singapore Boon Lay Way is a fun place for children to learn. I must visit that place on each holiday trips to Singapore while I was young. But despite the increasing entrance fee, I insist that it's still a very good place to learn. The Da Vinci exhibition had just started. Here is a link to the Science Centre website for your reference: http://www.science.edu.sg/ssc/index.jsp
Omni-Theatre Come share your experince & thoughts about this interesting centre. Regards, Liew. This post has been edited by ah liew: Jun 20 2009, 09:52 PM

Malaysia have their own "sains senter"? Darn !there's not even a single advertisement about it lol. U guys sure it's really updated or it's still running some old science demostration. E.g How to start fire with stones lol.

At least this thread can start some awareness about the Pusat Sains Negara and Planetarium Negara.

They got built in some new stuff. Like the aquarium before you enter. But the government should really spend some money so that our science center is on par with the singapores one.

Otherwise don't even build it at all. It's like our Zoo Negara, animals are not well fed & all look unhappy. http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=...74433&sec=focus
