with respect to hotels, i like to stay in DAI Hoang Kim 2 located in bui vien...girl friendly and quite clean and have an elevator ...damage is about 16 to 20 SGD per night ....pretty decent no star hotel ....

i love pham ngu lau area for its convinience to the bank and makan and the place never sleeps ...if bored can still go sahara wat .....

Can I change Dong in Western Union in Singapore?

Im staying in Caravelle Hotel during my first 2 days on business then to another hotel for holiday......
