Sorry for the slow posting, have been away in Copenhagen and Berlin for the past week and flying of to San Francisco in a few hours. Well, that means I have been to Changi Airport twice in the past week; in fact I’m here now for the third time, posting this from the coffee connoisseur (tcc) cafe at Terminal 3. I have collected some brochures and other stuffs from the airport and am planning a post about it. Well, that’s probably for tomorrow, when I’ve safely landed in SF.
Well, meanwhile, I’ve just gotten the news from a friend that Singapore was just selected as the best sightseeing city in Asia Pacific at Seoul Tourism Award [see here and here]. As a long-time resident of Singapore, I was quite surprised by the award. However, when I do think about all the tourist attractions (from shopping to food to nightlife), Singapore probably does deserve the award. Well, for you guys who are coming here in August, judge it for yourself! (And tell us! I’m very curious to know.)
The next bit is probably quite useful to you. In addition to the sightseeing award, it also won the best website for city tourism promotion award (yeah, long and mouthful). That’s good news of course. In this Internet era, I found it frustrating being unable to find good, well-organized website resource about a particular city (having just experienced this when I was about to visit Berlin last week), so do check out Uniquely Singapore site. [And again, judge it for yourself whether it deserves the award; this time, I do think it does (:.]
