NEWwater is so pure that minerals have to be added into the water before it is suitable for human consumption. Otherwise, it will leach the minerals from the bones of the person drinking it.
That’s what i’ve heard too! Also about how it’s an excellent water source for industrial use
NeWater is too pure for drinking, its more for wafer fabrication to produce electrical or photonic circuits on semiconductors.
The bottled ones are the one that has minerals added.
In fact the recycled water is sometimes released into reservoirs so that they can be "naturalized".
as the Singaporean police always say " Low Crime dont mean no Crime " stay safe people. lets keep Singapore safe and look out for one another.
Agree! Shouldnt make it easy for those up to no good
True, my ic/wallet got stolen and it was never found
@@tgd727 wah sorry about your wallet man…
But i am in singapore
Hi to all tourists who are visiting SG and Singaporeans please don’t leave your valuables unattended. You may hear stories that Singapore is so safe but doesn’t mean crime is 0%. As a former National Service Police, these petty crimes happen all the time and Police have KPIs (solving and establishing subjects) to achieve, with not a lot of manpower . So please don’t give them unnecessary work for these lost items and they can focus on bigger crimes .
Thanks for the good advice!
Wow u were an ns police? Ty for all ur contributions to sg🫡🫡🫡
I want to comment on the Chope system. The thing about the Chope system is that it isn't a law or a rule, but just a system, a system that relies on each other's trust and integrity. It wouldn't work if one chopes a place and another person blatantly ignores it and take the table anyways. People in Singapore respect each other, as well ae having trust and faith with one another. Truly a miracle.
Ya… somehow it works… yknow one time someone legitly LEFT his tissue pack on the table after finish eating. End up NOBODY use that table for the rest of the day 🤣
Chopped was never practiced in Singapore up to the late eighties. I wonder who, when and why it started. Unbelievable.
woah I wasn't born yet... Maybe people see people do hahah
When Singapore started to restructure in to a service and financial hub, the number of office workers increased.
And in places like Raffles Place, there are limited food outlets but office workers abundant.
Therefore the chope evolved when office workers have their tray of food and all the tables and seats are occupied.
We’re going to Singapore in October and your videos have been a great help! Thank youuu ❤️
I'm happy to be of help! Have an amazing trip :)
its ao clean there are wet tissue paper sroppings almost everywhere
Make sure to check out the popular attractions at at especially gardens by the bay or the esplanades
@@ItsspidyandshadowXD yrs
Have an amazing trip! I live in singapore and it’s one of the cleanest countries I’ve seen
Thanks for the entertaining yet comprehensive video on singapore! Appreciate the effort! Plus its super accurate too
I've seen all pf them... and some are kinda hard to watch 😬
Thanks for the compliments!
leaving laptop/handphones in public places without any persons around are really luring the devil out of those desperate/poor ppl.
They will not do so if they had been bitten once.
Let’s stay safe!
Hm? You didn't manage to tour the NEWater facility? They had tours to show how the water was recycled, and it's pretty safe to drink. The reason why it's not sold is because we're not used to the taste of the water.
I was referring to the “stigma” behind it in the earlier days :)
I was at the NEWater plant, quite a fun place to visit, though location is not the most favorable. Looking forward to the DTSS!
The Newater exhibit hall is closing down or have already close down.
Everything is amazing until the heat and humidity hits you……😅
yaaaa, best weather is cloudy + windy but NO RAIN hahah
@@dashingheightsdude here at Bishan if u don’t bring a umbrella your kinda screwed
@@user-oj5kz1vv5g-is-a-wooper is it the sun? rain? or both?? hahahah
@@dashingheights both
I love it
This video took so long to shoot dude got a haircut then had it grow out by the end 🤣🤣
HAHAH you have mad observation skills ;)
Love your many different shirts and hairstyles in this video :P you should get a sponsorship from HDB, LTA and NEA!!
Hahahah crap i had a miss call yesterday might be them
Thanks for ya guide, im looking for first trip to another country and i think SG will be my first trip. Also, it safe for me as a high school student to try exploring another country :3
You're welcome! Yes it's mostly safe, but do take care of yourself :)
It is true that Singapore is safe in general.
But as we say here low crime doesn't mean no crime.
Do still keep safe.
It is very safe,even at night
If you want to reserve a seat at a hawker centre,just use a tissue paper
Us singaporean will know
🎉SG is defn 1 of the countries to try out solo traveling. If you are ok with English, then you are all set. Google maps works well, signal coverage almost all area, trains & tunnels as well. Get a good travel debit card (mind the exchange rates) & you can use it for public transport directly.
Hello,
Another great video.
Keep the wonderful job !
Thank you!!
Don’t recommend leaving your items unattended anymore, a lot of foreigners in Singapore now. Crime is going up every year.
yaaa best not to do so. Keep your own things safe :)
MRT where got so empty? This looks like the latest Thomson East Coast Line.
hahahah i purposely go on weekday morning!
yess, at first I was thinking that it fails to show how packed it is at peak hour, but I'm realising it'll be impossible to film.
thanks for not putting any people who were just minding their own business, in front of a camera 😅
Though woupdve been nice for you to mention how packed the train is
@@f.p1758you won't know how packed is packed until u see trains at peak hours in Japan or India... Haha
Housing estates are not so clean nowadays.
I guess lucky my estate very well taken care of :)
First time watching u! Loved ur video hehe💜 Also what made u come to sg and how has it been these past few years for u here?😁
Thanks for the love!!
I spent too much time in my teens here so most of the people I care about are here :) In hindsight I was very blessed to have made the move because education and opportunities were abundant
@@dashingheights ahh i see, thanks for sharing😁 We're all glad u came here too!💜 And yea do spend time and appreciate ur loved ones here :))
@@findyour_treasure_ my pleasure to be here!!
Amazing video! Can you accommodation based on location or activities at night to explore
Thanks! It's really nice to walk around the Marina bay area at night.
I highly recommend the FREE shows around the area, you can check it out in my video about TOP 18 Things to do
It’s really amazing
Agreed!
ownership= 99 year lease (while most other countries are freehold). Rent is so prohibitively high and laws/regulations that tend to favor landlords and do little to protect tenants… Affordability is the last thing to say about accommodation in Singapore
yeaaa, but HDB is still the most affordable amongst other options
Nice video, but I must disagree with your statement that Singapore is a clean city, you should say Singapore is a cleaned city. Very often I participate in beach cleanups around singapore, and it's really sad too see how dirty beaches are. Also, so you showed the central area in your video which is very clean, I agree, but some neighborhoods are really dirty and trash is everywhere. Try to walk even around Fusionopolis, and you will see for yourself, not to mention Jurong or Tuas area...
Hmm for the most part people are mindful about their trash, and rarely litters. The biggest litterbugs i observed are smokers who ditch their cig butts. The beach carries trash from all over the place so hard to stop the waves. Personally after seeing much worse places SG is still top clean for me :)
Never seen anyone so delighted to see trash cans. 😂
Hahahah i like clean streets
And its not uncommon to see empty fast food packs and drink cups just left 10 feet away from those trash cans.
There are people who just won't walk that bit to throw those litter into the trash cans.
Hahahahaha ❤ 😂 exactly what we do (chopping tables with tissues also have) 😂❤
Heheh my fav is using water bottle
I KNOW THAT YOU WERE IN CLEMENTI ON THE FIRST SENCE I LIVE CLOSE THERE
Woops heheheh caught me there
@@dashingheights Clementi heights is the name of my block LOL
Jokes on you, my country is Singapore, all 7 things are normal in my country
Nuuuuuu
someone from a "certain country" will edit the part where you shown & said .. "in Singapore, we drink urine" .. out of context & upload it online ..
"你们看！你们看！新加坡人喝尿！“ .. "对啊！对啊！是这位新加坡主播承认的！“ .. & then later on .. “我听说有些新加坡人吃”S”的“ ..
no disrespect intended .. but sir .. please mind what you say online cos there are such group of "creatures" roaming all around the world now ..
this is not a conspiracy theory .. it is happening as we speak .. that said .. I do like your videos cos they were shot & narrated in a rather relaxing manner .. nice .. :)
thanks for the concern and the kind words!
2:40 uhm you should probably have yourself checked with that color 🤣🤣
ah still tastes fine should be good
ccb say we drink urine??
hahahahah watch finish bro
@@dashingheights i watched finish but... not all the pee is made into newwater bro
Why is your urine red bro.. time to get it checked!
I fermented it
@@dashingheights Hahahahaha
Wow I just knew you’re from indonesia. Sekampung mas.
hahah halooooo
Dont know why, suddenly feel like eating SUPER RINGS after watching ur video 😁
hahahah certainly not my intention! maybe the orangeness?
I m glad i kept continue watching after he said Singaporean drink urine water 😂😂
hahahahah that YES but NO moment ;)
But i am in singapore
that makes the 2 of us
org indo to, suwun yo
Yooooi
dey u want release video pls dont be lazy and do more research. dont just ride on what you hear from gossip and treat it like a fact. newater is primarily used in manufacturing industries, any access production is treated with minerals and released back into the reservoirs to be fixed and filtered naturally by the reservoirs ecosystem. thus balancing it in all aspects to become drinkable again.
Thanks for your kindness adding more info to the video :)
i am singaporean
Ayyy that makes the two of us
Kak ki nang 👍
Have to admit. Living here for 4 years now I rarely see a table that is choped… Mostly a person will stay seated without food at a table to hold it. So I’ve heard of choping but never seen it at least in busy food courts. The trash can thing, I think only Korea and Japan are places with no trash bins. Every other city I’ve seen in USA, aus etc trash cans are literally on every corner as well. As for corruption, well, journalists have no freedom in sg, look at reporters without borders…
The hawkers more popular among office lunch crowd seems to be more prevalent. Ah i remember it was also hard to find bins in Taiwan. Hahah indeed SG is on the stricter side, but i’ll give credits where it’s due
In Singapore Journalist do have all the freedom to report anything they want on 1 condition - make sure it is true & be ready to back it with facts. Responsible news reporting is what we wanted.
bruh u been to nyc? cuz that place was littered with trash everywhere, same with LA and niagara
You can find lots of “Chope” practices especially at hawker centres frequent by office workers during lunch hours.
Eh??? Always see the choping during peak lunch/dinner hours esp when it is lunch hour weekdays at CBD/school areas😂
Singaporeans drink urine??? Literally?? No way we do that! 😅 I suggest you remove or correct that segment in your video as you may convey the wrong message to people. We have NEWwater which is recycled water but it doesn’t go down well with us Singaporeans, unless there’s a drought or water shortage!
Hahah that’s exactly how I dramatised and then described :) I love NEWater!
Thanks for the suggestion and clarification.
Bro he don't mean it literally. Our water comes from pee and shi- but it is processed well enough to drink it again.
@@v3xPaperJam yes hahah thanks for affirming that
