1) Dogs are everywhere. Back at home, we can see more cats than dogs around the public area. Here, in Singapore, dogs are consider not only as pets, but as part of the family and friends. Most of the dogs will be taken for a walk in the evening by the owner, some even have a speacial pram to carry them around.
2) Maids living together with the family is a norm. Many of them are from Philiphine, Indonesia and Mynmar. They normally will taken care of the family house chores.Some even will follow their master to hometown in Malaysia or going together on a holiday.
3) Main language in Singapore is English. Everybody needs to be able to speak and understand in English in order to survive since all signboards and everyday activites will be conducted mainly in English. While eldest Malays still can speak Malay, but there are few differences with the Malaysian Malay words such as bikin (buat/do) and bilang (cakap/inform).
4) Halal chinese foods can be found easily as compared to Malaysia. Chinese foods means foods that are less salty,less oily, more garlic = more healty. Drink will be soy based, jelly and longan.
5) Walking is a common things. Pedestrian are everywhere. There are many people with stroller, motorbikes or bicycle.
6) Quality of foods and fruits here are better. I try not to be suspicious but it is admitted by my husband where the Durian standard in Singapore is very good. When i went for a wedding ceremony, I am suprised to see they served a big prawn to their guest.
