White card at custom or immigration?

If white card at immigration, once I notice forget to write exact place I staying, they also no make noise.

should be the immigration..yea..and they want EXACT address..so i scared if i go there for few hours they dun let me in.. unsure.gif or maybe i should just fake a hotel address? whistling.gif

Thanks bro stimix !

I understand a lot now. I think I still need to get the autopass right since they said malaysian car must have it. I guess autopass is a card thing. How much  is it ? N the device is an 'optional' thing like smart tag which we can rent it upon reach the checkpoint
Correct me if im wrong  rclxub.gif

there is both entrace which is Woodsland & tuas to singapore right? Woodsland is free when we go in SG, but pay $1.20 when we depart.
Tuas checkpoint both in/out also pay $4.60 ?
Is this entrance charges inclusive in the flat S$5 per day ?
Until now havent book my botel yet. too busy with work recently . I wonder if hotel81 got place or not if i last minute walk in /.
i just need a small room enough .. for budget type

P/S
I heard smoking in SG is dangerous. We cant smoke unless there is a sign to say so. Is it true ?
I plan to bring some of my cheap ciggy(like luffman) to smoke there but i wonder if the police there will recognize n take your ciggy n look
*
yeapz. u can't even smoke inside clubs. if u din get caught..u safe la..if u kena caught...then..well..good luck. smile.gif

Will keep that in mind, thanks. You working in Singapore?
Is it within walking distance? What is a GST refund? Sorry for a noob question.

GST is their tax lo. but for certain items, like some electronics, if you buy $100 and above, you can claim back the tax.

Ok read about the GST and it's T&C. Not gonna get it mainly because I'm not flying to Singapore.

Will be there for 4 days. Ok maybe 3, minus the first day. Will be at Zoukout on the first day. Anyone going? Any suggestion on what I shouldn't miss while I'm in Singapore? Right now I can only think of shopping. Lol.
*
....which comes back to the same question again..

what do you really wanna see?

explore singapore as a whole?

see the culture?

shopping?

if you going zouk out might as well go in the morning..visit sentosa awhile..zoukout starts at 8 only ma..then party until 8am..visit universal..lol

I'm going to singapore next month. Really on a tight budget right now. So I wonder if its enough if I bring $70 just for buying items.

Planning to get a perfume from the designer label stores in orchard, the tax free ones.

And, can someone tell me the difference between ezlink passes and singapore tourist pass? Both of them are for travelling via public transport, no?
*
what kind of items? how long will u be going?

Yes defintely can shop but maybe have to drop all the luggage at hotel 1st. hehe


Added on December 2, 2010, 4:06 pm

Oh I see. There is a station at Corus Hotel. I can direct buy the ticket from there right?

p/s: I don't have credit card cry.gif

what's your definition of tourist spot?

vivo is one of the most famous shopping mall in sg leh.

and there's sentosa island and resorts world and universal studio next door. blink.gif blink.gif

don't worry about your luggage if you really desperate to shop, there's always huge lockers for you to keep them. well, at least i know resorts world got la biggrin.gif

There are 3 Aeroline stops in addition to Corus hotel in KL. Google and find more info.

All of them stop at Harborfront which is the ferry stop attached to Vivo shopping mall. MRT station is right there and the monorail to Sentosa is on the top floor. It's a pretty decent mall but I got bored very quickly to be honest biggrin.gif
