2. When you first step foot on Singapore soil, there are things you would have
no clue about this great land. Here we attempt to introduce some essential
facts about Singapore which will help you get around Singapore.
Let us start from your entry, the Singapore International Airport.
Singapore’s Changi Airport
Singapore’s Changi airport is known for many things among which are its
size, the many number of flights that fly in and out, the architectural
ambience, the sheer feeling of luxury and comfort it exudes etc. They clearly
say that the whole idea is to create an airport experience that is second to
none!! Certainly “THE FEELING IS FIRST CLASS” in their own words.
For all information relating to your flights or the airport itself, log on to

Singapore’s Taxi Services
You are now done with your immigration formalities; probably you want to
head down to your hotel and take some rest before you set about exploring
the country. These are purely for those of you who are fending for
yourselves here. By their own admission, there are 7 companies, 29 types
and 23,000 taxis in Singapore. We know it’s a very good number of for a
country of our size. This means that you will never have to wait long for a
taxi anywhere.
The basic taxi fare is anywhere between SGD 2.80 – SGD 3.00. There is also
some surcharges like peak hour surcharges and the like. For all information
regarding taxis in Singapore visit www.taxisingapore.com including all
hotline numbers for taxis in Singapore.
Did you know?
If you hold a valid visit pass, you can get yourself a
pre-paid number the minute you are in Singapore.
You can get this by showing your passport at the

3. Singapore’s public transportation
Singapore is a small island nation and every part of our country is well
connected by buses and trains. These are collectively known as MRT (Mass
Rapid Transit) – trains and SMRT (Singapore Mass Rapid Transit) which is run
by the SMRT Corporation Singapore. There are also the SBS buses which are
like SMRT buses only difference is that they are bit newer in make . The good
news is with one ticket, you can travel on the buses, trains and even the
SMRT cabs. You will get to buy this ticket in any railway counter. MRT
stations run the length and breadth of
Singapore. Each ticket would cost your
around SGD 12/- for the ticket itself and
you can top up value for travel. For the
first time you would have to top it up for
SGD 10/- and any amounts above. Travel
in Singapore is not very expensive as you
would have understood from the taxi
fares. An average travel using public
transport would cost you an average of
SGD 1.5/- dollars. If you are here purely to have fun, avoid using public
transport during peak times on working days (Mon-Fri: 7.00 AM to 9.00 AM
and 5.00 PM to 7.00 PM). Despite these
comments you might find our public
transport a bit too crowded for your taste.
If this is the case, you better avoid the
peak hours. Once word of caution, you
have to tap your ticket on to the ticket
reader when you board the bus and also
when you exit. If you do not tap on exit,
you will be charged the whole amount for
your previous travel (remember that you will be charged for the whole
journey and not just for what you travelled!!). Well, that is just the way things
are done here in Singapore. For any destination you want to travel in
Singapore, google Singapore is your best buddy, (maps.google.com.sg)

4. Singapore’s healthcare system
This can be your worst nightmare. But, in
case you need emergency medical attention
and you are in a place where you can get
yourself into a cab, your cab driver will be
able to take you to the nearest hospital. If
this is not the case, you can call 995 for
ambulance. If you are staying in a hotel
when you have an emergency situation,
please contact your hotel reception. Most
hotels have 24 hours medical personnel available on site or else have tie ups
with hospitals or nursing homes.
We will also be providing you with a list of emergency numbers that you can
call. Registered pharmacists in Singapore work from 9 AM to 6 PM and there
are shops like the Guardian Pharmacy chains etc that will be open until 10
PM. Trauma care and emergency accident departments in all government
hospitals in Singapore operate 24 hours. A regular visit to the doctor for
minor issues or common problems would cost you around SGD 50- SGD 75
including medication. Dental consultations can be costly, a normal visit
ranging anywhere between SGD 55 – SGD 100 and above. If you need tooth
filling etc, you will have a good dent in your pockets by the time you are
finished. Our best advice to you would be to be safe and avoid situations
that can cause you harm. Carry your medication if you have allergies that are
known to you. Avoid being in intense sun if you are not exposed to it.
Control your alcohol intake and get vaccinations done from your home
country against common diseases like the flu/ chicken pox etc. Have fun,
but at the same time be safe!! The last thing you want while on vacation or
business is a bad sneeze.
