Friends in Singapore??

Seems like it's really hard to find friends in Singapore!  Considering it's size I was under the impression it'll be an easy task but not according to the posts in this forum!! not good since I'll be moving soon! hmmmm.....

Is it due to time constraint, busy work schedule or are people simply not friendly enough in Singapore?

Hey there, what do you do? How long have you been in Singapore and how are you finding it so far?

Take care

Can be hard to make friends if we dont try. Say hello, go to places of interests like if you like sports join a team or go to a park. If you like to read go to a store or a public library and smile. JW

Hello papsikels, yes that would be great. When are you moving? I'll be there in a few days!!

cheers :)

Yes, I hope I can make some friends there as well. Moving there alone soon for work.

Hi dear Redvelet,

I can say France was one of the best countries that I have ever seen. I am here to work for a manufacturing company, How about you?

Hello All! Welcome to Singapore :) I've been living here for 4 years. If there's anything you want to know more about this city, dont hesitate to keep in touch...:)

I found it hard to find friends in Singapore, I hope I can make some.

Hi guys! Why don't you organise an expat meet up? ;)

Hey SAgirl, hope your enjoying Singapore. How long have you been here? What brings you to Singapore?

Cheers

Hi, everyone :) I've been here in Singapore for over 2 years now and I think it's not really hard to make friends.. Just like what JWilliamson said, you just have to go to places of interests, joins clubs, etc. And most importantly, show up at meet-ups.. it's a very good way to make new friends and network. I love SG! :)

Hiya guys, whoever is free on Friday head down to Blu Jazz Cafe.

See thread for details. https://www.expat.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=53425

its so nice you can have a drink and eat something meanwhile you enjoy the sun on the beach. its also recommended for families.
