Hi I arrived in 1991 in Singapore and have seen the City being developed into World Class. Although some old places have been removed there is still a nice balance between old & new and the development with a complete integrated architecture is remarkable. There is now also so much to do for anyones likings. To escape the hectic City life I spend much time in Batam, just a 45 minutes ferry ride from Harbour Front, and retire in my own hideaway The Tempats. A nearby Spa and Golf Course are contributing to a relaxed break when needed. I hope you will enjoy your life in the tropics as much as I do.
