Don’t Tip Unnecessarily

Tipping may be customary in other countries, but Singapore sets itself apart once more. Normally a 10% service charge is already placed on top of the total bill, which already acts as a tip for the probably amazing service you’ll receive no matter what you may be doing, whether eating in a restaurant or taking a cab. And if it’s the latter, don’t step out of the car too quickly, the driver will be sure to give you back your change.

Don’t Worry About Leaving Your Stuff In Public

Singapore boasts of such an extremely low crime rate that people tend not to even lock up their stores when they close up at night. Someone even conducted an experiment where he left his wallet, car keys and a laptop on a table in a cafeteria for hours and no one even bothered to go near them. Whether it’s due to the number of surveillance cameras installed all over the city or the fact that people actually respect others, is not exactly known, but the overall feeling of safety is not underrated, even just a little bit.
