Both are great cities, but Singapore is a little boring. In
Singapore I like the good public transit, the excellent and safe
street food, and the fact that there is a great selection of very
nice moderately priced hotels. Also, most people speak English which
is helpful.

Hong Kong is also really nice.

Personally I like Taipei and Seoul the best of large cities in Asia.


Good public transport, what a joke. Only buses with no routes posted
that I could find. And taxis that won't pick you up off the street
(maybe they don't like white people?).

I think the problem is that you never were able to find the MRT and
LRT stations. Here is a map to help you get started:

I was talking about local transport, not some commuter train. Yeah they
have a train, so what? Many cities have that. But local transport is
almost non-existent. Compare that to Philippines: jeepneys, buses,
motobikes, trikes, everywhere. I have a choice of 3-4 different modes of
transport into town all dirt cheap. Probably a 1km taxi ride, IF you can
get them to stop is like $50 in ******** Singapore.
