Have you consider Bintan? Its only an hour ferry to get to Bintan. Maybe Club Med since its all inclusive and they have alot of activities going on for kids, etc.

Personally, I find Jazz @ South Bridge a bit of "hit & miss". Went there 5-6 times, and they appear to have a resident japanese lady doing more of fusion jazz or sort, instead of the more authentic jazz. But if that is the sort you like, then you might like jazz@south bridge. I was there once, when ...

You dont really have to bother if majority of Singapore stay on the island, or do they travel out. I think what is more important is, what you want. If you want to travel, just book yourself on a vacation, and go. i travel every month or alternate month, for leisure, not work. End of the day, it all...

Thanks guys for all the advise...

From what I know, there aint many places with waves to surf around asia (maybe Bali), but correct me if I am wrong.

Crazy man is a stalker... can't you all tell?

I have been to Boracay (in philippines) and highly recommend the place if you like to stay in a beach area. Its supposed to be the next up and coming beach resort. The people in philippines are really nice and friendly, plus most of them (including the police) speaks reasonably good english so there...

have you try some private moving companies? they have small lorries or van and charge like $35 each time, which aint too much and you can transport everything in one trip, rather than potentially doing two or three trips. you can go to yahoo auction singapore, and search for moving services. dont as...

I have been to vietnam twice, to nha trang, danang, hoian and hanoi before. each places have their unique qualities... so it really depends on what you are looking for. nha trang is a beach area, and the beach club is the most famous place to hang around, have a nice pina colada and get some sun. th...
