Pay thru your nose if you wanna drive to Sentosa

Last week Sentosa announced that with the opening of their Resorts World Sentosa, they'll be increasing charges for private vehicles entering into Sentosa. Currently it costs $2 per car with additional $2 per passenger. From January 18 onwards though it'll cost $6 to drive into Sentosa on weekdays between 7am and just before noon, and $7 per car on weekends, regardless of the number of people in the car.

 

Apparently management on the island are amending the costs of driving to the island to encourage visitors to car pool, or if not, rely on the public transport system. This is done due to the expected overcrowding once the Resorts World Sentosa opens.

 

There's more.......parking! Parking will become more expensive with the island switching to time based charges.

Personally i think Sgd 7.00 is a small sum for going to sentosa. compare to going in via Ferry and cable car.

I wonder how people thinks $7 is paying through ones nose when you are paying tens thousands of dollars for a car.

    Are forums outdated? I try to find out by asking AI

    Is your boss asking you to explore and learn how to use AI to improve the quality and efficiency of your work? Yup, you aren't the only one in that boat.  Whilst exploring new AI tools, I figured: Why not use it to answer some burning questions that I have? This time, it was about whether forums are outdated. Yes, forums like this one that we are on. I remember how before social media became popular, and before apps like Carousell existed, forums were where I chatted with others t

Different methods works for different folks, of course, and when I was in my final year of university, I was introduced to a method that I regularly return to still: The Pomodoro Method, a d
