I haven’t been back home for 10 yrs and every now and then – i get pictures from family and friends of the recent changes in Singapore to entice me to go home for a holiday. I so wanna go – but because of our business – and no extra help or trustworthy ones – we have no choice but to stay put for now. I hope in the later years to come – i can go home for a long visit.
This is the famous durian building – hahah! actually it’s not called that – it is actually the Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay. Some 30 years ago – the Esplanade didn’t look like that – and about 10 yrs ago – when i was leaving for Canada – they started building this. 600 million SGD it cost and it was completed in 2002 – i never had a chance to visit the new Esplanade yet – but you can be sure i would when i visit home.
The Merlion hasn’t changed much – still same looking but it seems like there are more building in the central business district now. But there is more in Singapore – to tell you about – tell you about the awesome food next! look forward to it – because like Hong Kong – we have yummy food home!
