a YouTube video on Monday (Feb 18), he documented the cheap eats he found at Tiong Bahru Market.

"Prior to coming to Singapore, we did some research to figure out the best hawker centres to visit when coming to Singapore.

"And Tiong Bahru Market came in the top five of places we have to visit here," shared Grif, who also visited places such as Amoy Street Food Centre and Little India.

US$4 curry rice and more​

The first dish he got was from the famous Loo's Hainanese Curry Rice, which took over the double unit space that was once occupied by Original Tiong Bahru Golden Pig & Roasted.

Grif ordered himself a plate of curry rice with breaded pork chop and braised pork for just US$4 (S$4.80).

Recap Sept 2023

HONG KONG -- Hong Kong has lost its position as the world's freest economy to Singapore, according to an index compiled by Montreal-based Fraser Institute, which attributed the fall largely to the erosion of impartiality in the Chinese city's legal system and judiciary.

Hong Kong dominated the independent Canadian think tank's "Economic Freedom of the World" report for over two decades, but in the 2023 edition released on Tuesday, the city's overall score fell by 0.07 points. This was due to a decrease in judicial independence, impartial courts and legal integrity, and an increase in military interference based on the latest available data collected in 2021.

The loss of top position will likely bruise the ego of the Hong Kong government, which has liked to point to the city as the world's freest economy.

Multinationals Pick Singapore Over Hong Kong for Asian Headquarters​

  • City state’s 4,200 regional HQs dwarf those of Hong Kong


Singapore also has targeted incentives for foreign companies looking to set up regional hubs, an approach that is paying off.

The international business community is clear on where it wants to call home in Asia: Singapore.

The city state hosted regional headquarters for 4,200 multinational firms in 2023, extending its lead and dwarfing the 1,336 found in Hong Kong, its main rival, according to a Bloomberg Intelligence report that details Singapore’s rise in the perennial battle to be known as Asia’s premier business destination.

Even many Chinese companies seeking to hedge geopolitical risks and broaden their reach pick Singapore over Hong Kong, the report found.
