QUOTE(7up @ Apr 3 2014, 04:51 PM) i plan to buy car in singapore and park near woodlands custom, then take bus over the causeway, reason being i don't want to be stuck driving in the jam at causeway. Any recommendation where I can park my car near the woodlands checkpoint? there's actually a few HDB parking lot near the Woodlands Immigration. Just a stone throw away

QUOTE(Fiona Chin @ Apr 3 2014, 11:07 AM) Try to avoid sensitive remarks on race, religion and politics, anything that can make the locals angry. People here can get charged and put into jail by making comment on internet. Be more careful when you are somebody, high pay, high rank etc. Don't let them start and meat search you, ancestors also dig out then post on stomp. Those are residential areas, you go after work or weekends sure crowded. Try the gym around the city during weekends. My gym class quite empty, but its all ladies class though. okay. no choice since singapore is that way.

QUOTE(knighty @ Apr 3 2014, 09:26 AM) Just moved to Singapore for work last week. Anyone know any good gyms near yishun/khatib/yio chu kang/ang mo kio area? Checked out fitness first AMK hub but it was super duper crowded. Checked out safra gym yishun but it's for PRs/citizens only unless I pay $15 per entry.
