    I actually have not visited wild wild wet before. And also didn't spend any money at an Uncle Ringo fair. Probably both appeared after my childhood. I think I went to one called Euro fair long long time ago with very big sized rides including spider arms. For water fun, went to a one similar to big splash in the Jurong area long long long time ago. I went Big Splash once for family day during NS.

    The study found that the average cost of breakfast is S$4.81, lunch is S$6.01, and dinner is S$6.20. Each meal comprises a food item and a drink. When adding up all three meals, an individual spends an average of S$16.89 if they eat at hawker centres, food courts, and kopitiams.

    In terms of safety record and fun ride, way better than SMRT and SBS

    The survey examined a variety of food and drink items commonly consumed during breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and collected drink and food prices from the menus of 829 food establishments, comprising 92 hawker centres, 101 food courts, and 636 kopitiams within 26 residential neighbourhoods in Singapore.

    Uncle Ringo rides are pitiful. In the 90s there were another funfair in sg wif ferris wheel roller coaster pirate ship all the big adult rides. Tats a real funfair. I'm very sure Benjamin Kheng din puke on tat silly baby rocking boat. Its the huge pirate ship the other funfair Co own.

      Yes indeed, they are at River Hongbao yearly with the 4 storey high roller coaster and big pirate ship.
      They were called Jakarta Amusement, that company no longer have such big rides but they have a spin off company called J kids amusement by one of the owner’s son. I still see them around at travelling carnivals.

    The IPS study surveyed the cost of eating out in Singapore’s hawker centres, food courts, and kopitiams, which aimed at better understanding the costs of living in Singapore and does not provide any value judgement on the pricing strategy of food establishments.

    The Mandarin-speaking population in Singapore 🇸🇬 is a *big problem* for Singaporean national security when they
    - connect with the authoritarian expansionist regime in China and
    - subscribe to their version of world views.
