At Casinos like the Marina Bay Sands there is an entrance fee for Singaporean residents but not for foreigners. It's explicitly designed to incentivize incoming foreign $$ while minimizing the 'moral impact' on citizens. First of many ways the country seems run by economists.

Christmas Decorations go up on November 2nd in Singapore, apparently. Makes sense - no Thanksgiving to interrupt the Halloween -> Christmas transition.

Christmas parties here are actually called "Christmas Parties" not the PC "Holiday Parties." Sometimes they actually happen on Christmas

Just discovered that the Singapore Government runs a science discussion group. That's pretty cool. Although it does have a "save to pdf" button on a website 🤔

(1/n) Diversity works differently in Singapore than in the US. I think it's captured by this picture.
