    Fly Singapore airlins - SUPERB airline.

    They have arrangements with local hotels for discounted tariffs for their flyers, with discounted tours.

    The Singapore Zoo is wonderful - day and night - the noght tour is brilliant. Not to mention the Botanical Gardens and the Bird Park...

    The only chewing gum problem I know about is on the streets of London. Is Singapore the same ?

    Singapore has draconian laws. Chewing gum used to be one of them. Their logic was that folks leave it everywhere. Used to be a Sing$ 1000 fine, if memory serves.

    Still is - but tourists are exempt.

    But G*d help you if you spit it out in the street!

    You get T Shirts there that read

    Singapore is a fine country.

    Chew gum - $1,000 fine

    Smoke and discard butt - $750 fine

    Litter - $1,000

    etc.

    But, as a result it is a SPOTLESS city.

    I was at Hong Kong just a few weeks ago.

    Beautiful city.

    Here are the places we've been to:
    Disneyland, Ocean Park, Avenue of Stars, Night Market, Victoria's Peak, Po Lin Monastery (Giant Buddha), Ngong Ping Cable Car

    Also, don't forget to spend a day at Macau. It's just an hour ferry ride from Hong Kong.
