Singaporeans Are Getting S $ 100 To Be Local Tourists – Here’s Where To Go



[ad_1]

From terrifying ghost hunts to mind-blowing escape rooms, there are at least eight places we think you should go and collect those S $ 100 coupons along the way.

Singaporeans over 18 are expected to receive the coupons in December to spend on local attractions in a bid to boost the dying tourism industry, the Singapore Tourism Board announced yesterday. It comes a month after Finance Minister Heng Swee Keat said the country was pulling away S $ 320 million (about US $ 235 million) for the “SingapoRediscovers” campaign.

Vouchers will be distributed by credit through SingPass and will be valid until the end of June. They can be used for attractions, local tours and stays. They can also be used to redeem rates for attractions or tours for those under 18 years of age.

With two months for the coupons to arrive, let’s start planning.
