"Wah lau"

Once a deserted place near airport -" Changi business park" , an area with dull office buildings and a couple of chicken rice stalls, to the now busy area with access to a mall , Starbucks, bars with "crazy hours", food joints offering variety from local, western, Japanese, Indian, you name it! And all this transformation within a timespan of less than 2 years!


Surprised? Welcome to Singapore!



A city that never stops constructing. Its either new malls, casinos, condos or offices. Its constantly changing, for better or for worse. With the frequent variation in the city skylines , the island is expanding every year. With carefully manicured plants and trees, to equally spaced lamp posts, everything is in order. The city is almost like a theme park, with  rides that people take everyday. Its extremely safe, and so it comes with a price. The price being a very "predictable lifestyle". For some this is great, for others, not so much.
