your ignorance doesnt mean that you are right
yes, i totally agreed. we mini country, so mini must display the unique...like tallest Green House in the world...F1 at night...Night Safari. we cannot compete with the UNESCO world's heritage sites, so we can only create...but the money involved is mind-boggling...how about more money for the seniors and welfare cases?
... if u got a lot of free time on ur hands ...
every project must have cost-benefit analysis.
do you think it's worth paying $1B for GBTB and $53m per year for maintenance, bearing in mind that this maintenance cost will escalate...could this $1B and $53m per year now be better used to improve the lives of poor and eldely singaporeans ?
how abt the prime land?
if i pay $200m then you ask me again, cant we pay 50m for a project?
welll...if can get it for $50m , cant fault me for asking
tiger balm garden got world class anot?
u think so?
once again, i totally agreed. the money could be used for other areas. but this GBTB was conceived and nobody protested in the planning stages. the green light was given and now it has come to fruition....money spent liao. so how? time to collect money.
Bro you should visit at least once and who knows then maybe you will revise your opinion on the costs!
.Since Tracey is inviting opinions, I'll give it my 2 cents worth. I went there for the first time 2 weeks ago and most probably for the last time! The Flower Dome is nice on first impressions because of the sheer colour and variety but then it is not some place that I'll revisit. I remember stumbling upon the Sentosa Flower Festival many years ago and to my simple mind, it looked and smelled the same. However the Cloud Forest is something unique here. Water mist, cuscading water curtains, bird's eye views etc provided a different spectacle and experience for me. Having said all these,I'll agree that the price tag of $1 billion is over the top! In future, I'll just stroll in the Botanic Gardens or some other neighbourhood parks.once again, i totally agreed. the money could be used for other areas. but this GBTB was conceived and nobody protested in the planning stages. the green light was given and now it has come to fruition....money spent liao. so how? time to collect money.
cld you or I have protested? what do we know at the planning stage? what information were revealed?
the pap has been voted in and when they approve a project they are answerable to Singaporeans. They dont have to consult everyone ..
but it doesnt mean that if they mishandled any project or ill conceive any project they can turn round and say there were no objections,,that's not valid reason for them to misgovern
Bro you should visit at least once and who knows then maybe you will revise your opinion on the costs!
Bro, you just convinced me NOT to go...........................

thanks for your views...
that's how i feel too...
the Flower Dome is very ordinary...in fact everything are very ordinary...nothing fantastic to warrant such huge spending
and GBTB costs us $1B and $53m for year maintenance...i foresee that it will be losing money...just like the SG Flyer
once again, i totally agreed. the money could be used for other areas. but this GBTB was conceived and nobody protested in the planning stages. the green light was given and now it has come to fruition....money spent liao. so how? time to collect money.
if we think that it was not worth $1B...we shd question how come so much money to pay for such simple things
So did you go with family like you said?
which thread?
