Food court in shopping malls will usually have at least 1 muslim stall (certified Halal). There is a regulation on this I  think.  I hope it should not be a problem else our muslim locals will have the same problem as you.  So far no one has complained about i.

Christmas shopping will starts early this year  due to APEC meeting somewhere in the 2nd week of Nov.  SG Gov has string together with event organisor to organise activities for APEC members.  Christmas lightup will begin 7 Nov as reported along Orchard Rd. Best place for information will be the SG tourist promotion board or Unique Singapore site. Just yahoo or google and you will find either one of them at each otehr site.

Frankly, Christmas shopping to me, the discount isn't as fantastic as compared to GSS.  Some malls or retailers already had their sales promotion before the Christmas season shopping.  I usuaully buy my children's toy around this time when the offers are slightly better, not during the Christmas shopping season.  I am not saying its not as good, but certain you find better  deal.  However, that's only my opinon....  If you are coming, why not enjoy whatever promotions that will be on afterall, its still a discount.

thanks bbmars for the opinion........thinking of going early december.......maybe the 1st of 2nd week........hope can find place to stay.......

By Train to Singkapo from KL? doh.gif  You will lose a day just going by KTM! Which is why it's not many people's mode of transport to Singkapo.
*
from KTMB website, better you take night train and opt for bunk bed so that you can have a good night sleep+rest....arrive in singapore ready to travel......

KTMB train schedule
