While the ban of cats is still in place, it is not actively enforced as HDB only acts against errant home owners whose cats are a public nuisance.

Very entertaining video and good editing. Keep up the good work!

Informative as well as knowledgeable video about Singapore. Great job, Mike Gigi. Thanks for sharing 🫰😍

Thanks for sharing amazing vlog 🥰

About the flying chickens at 5:33 - these aren't domestic chickens that have escaped and gone feral. Most of the "chickens" roaming wild in Singapore (excluding the all-white rooster at 5:47; that's a domestic/hybrid one) are actually wild red junglefowl that have never been domesticated. So they really _are_ wildlife - as wild as the sparrows, crows, orioles, kites, doves, eagles, kingfishers, egrets, woodpeckers and hornbills flying around Singapore. Domestic chickens are descended from this wild bird (domestic ones also have hybrid genes from the grey and green junglefowl, which are separate species.) You used not to see the wild red junglefowl on the main island of Singapore, but maybe about 15-20 years ago they started re-appearing more frequently, having flown over probably from Malaysia - first to Pulau Ubin, and then to the main island (driven out by deforestation in Johor, most likely). They can fly short distances, although they prefer to spend most of their time foraging on the ground. And they'll fly up into the trees to escape threats and also to roost at night (that gives them better protection from predators). Singapore is an ideal habitat for them, because they need both trees to roost and nearby green open space to forage, both of which the country has a lot of, as well as smaller predator numbers (stray dogs and cats aren't abundant here - and those that _are_ present probably can scavenge enough food without needing to hunt flying birds - although the red junglefowl still does have to contend with Singapore's wild boars, snakes and birds of prey, not that there are huge numbers of these). Anyway, the red junglefowl has been flourishing here (and possibly feeding the raptor population, which seems to be growing as well).

FYI it’s NOT illegal to have cats & dogs in hdb. We all keep cats in our HDB units, vy common in Singapore. There are of course always will have some stray cats at HDB blocks area,not everyone wants to have them in the house too.😊As to why only certain dogs are allowed cos we had experiences of certain dogs attacked human beings before. Also, if the dogs are barking too loud u will also attract complaints by the residents, and that’s how Govt dept will intervene later on. The Govt in Singapore will always proactively respond to the needs of Singaporeans❤

You do not have to wait for your turn for a car if you have the money. You can buy pre-owned car and get it within a week after the loan and admin clear. Only when you buy a new car, you have to wait for the auction of permit (COE) which occurs on 2 Wednesdays of each month. If you have even more money, you can pay more to the dealer for "immediate" registration of new cars (that is xstock) with their Open Car COE that they keep in reserve.

Cats is allowed now. Anyway, people has been keeping cats for ages, some as many as 8 (not talking about hoarders) and the HDB normally closed one eye as long as neighbours don't complain.

they allow to have cats now at HDB officially, max 2 cat per household

Now Cat is allow as pet in HDB apt.

Do check out Autobahn Motors who opened a futuristic 15-story showroom of luxury vehicles on display in 60 slots, billing it as the "world's largest luxury supercar vending machine" at 20 Jalan Kilang

About cats. Take a trip to St Johns Island. Cats GALORE!

Expats don't drive. Hence they love SG cheap and good food and world class public transport

Wonder who introduced the 🐓 chicken into the Singapore estate. 5 years ago they were not around. 🤔

Chickens n Peacocks do fly. I've seen them high up on a tall tree at labrador Park. I always thought they don't fly. For renting, it's good to engage a licensed property realtor to represent u to be safe. Singapore is safe but there r scammers around too.

Yep, struck off the electoral rolls if you don’t vote, and you need to pay ($50? I can’t remember) to get back on. So you aren’t literally forced to do so - if you can’t be arsed you can ignore all of it. But of course Singaporeans always want to ‘retain the option’ of doing so and hate paying unnecessary fees so will vote to maintain it. 😂

the rules have changed. HDB owners are allowed to own cats this year 2024.

Sg chickens fly....hahahaha

Buna!

"Singaporean chicken", interesting... And they fly...

Fruits is not accounted for. But if you pick the fruits, you will be reported by those that did not pick up the fruits and jealous that you pick it! ha! ha! ha!

Not 100% safe. As the police campaign mentioned, low crime doesn’t mean no crime. Also, no natural disasters but has a scorching sun and humidity. *sweating as I typed this! 😅😅😅

Chicken? Singapore "Kampong" spirit. That's how Singapore kampongs ( villages) used to be. Chickens roaming around. These are not your normal chickens. They are Kampong Chickens. More of the jungle wild fowl breed. That's why they fly.

its a FINE city with lots of strange laws, if you didnt return bowls and plates back to return areas you will get a warning even a fine

Circuit breaker and restricted activities/movement during Covid brought the wildlife --- wild boars, otters, jungle fowls -- into the open...Yeah!!!

We are not allowed to take the fruits so that the animals and birds in the wild are able to eat them. As more jungles are cleared for humans, we nèed to help sustain the wild life as we have taken over their territory. You will also see half eaten fruits falling on the grounds, most probably left overs by a monkey or a bird.

its a crime to buy air ticket but dont go ahead with flight after checking in......certificate of entitlement costs more than actual car.....

HDB rule about cat ownership has changed and it's now allowed. It wasn't allowed before because cats like to climb and I guess the authorities do not want to have to deal with pet cats falling off tall buildings. Now if you want to keep cats in HDB, you can but you need to be vigilant and keep them indoors within your own compound.

2 - Not really... No one really go about counting every fruit on a tree or will go about enforcing some sort of 'anti fruit stealing' operation in conjunction with the Singapore Police. The reason nobody take the fruits... Is because the quality of the fruits ain't that good... Its planted for the looks... But not for the tastiness of the fruits... So, why bother to go get some low quality fruits when its not that expensive in the wet market or supermarket... Except wild durians in the nature reserve... People wait in groups in the forest, even at night, till a fruit falls from a tree. 😂🤣 3 - Everyone can own a Car... Just that not everyone could afford one or is willing to 'afford' one. There is a different to you saying "Not everyone can own a Car"... Which suggests there is a form of discrimination against certain people... But looking at Mr Blue Car in park slot 26A... who didn't or couldn't park properly.... Yeah, maybe some people shouldn't be allowed to drive or own a car... The person who could own a car doesn't need to be 'Lucky:... Just need to be rich enough to out bid everyone else for the COE. 4 - Rules and Consequences of breaking the rules are laid out so that you can't claim you 'don't know' you are breaking the law/rule. But that being said.... Its usually not seriously enforced... Have you ever seen anyone in uniform standing inside any public toilet monitoring did someone 'forget' to flush ?? And Yes, the old saying among new recruits in SAF (Singapore Armed Forces) is just that... "You can do anything but don't get caught"... which is applicable to everywhere and anywhere... Just don't cry when you DO get caught. 5 - Voting is compulsory in Singapore. Having many locations to vote near to you. Make it easy for everyone to vote especially the elderly and disabled. But something you didn't know... You are told which voting booths nearest your home to go to, and just can't turn up anywhere just to vote. A government cannot claim to have the mandate of the people if a large group of the population didn't even bother yo vote... If you dislike all the candidates... Feel free to spoil your vote by not stamping either candidates or both candidates... 6 - Those are not really wild chicken... But escape pets or pets that has been released when the owner get bored with them... Like most adaptable animals... like the Otters... They find a way to survive and grow in an Urban Jungle. 7 - Like someone already pointed out... The rule is hardly enforced unless your neighbour complained about the noise or smell or something else. Some dog breeds are unsuitable for topical weather or is famous for being aggressive... as for HDB... Large dogs are not suitable for small apartments... that's why only small breeds are allowed. As for other "Strange" Pets... Usually its banned due to either its NOT a native species... Or that such animals are endangered or are usually wild caught illegally... 8 - Compare to China... Singapore's online payment system is still very much in its infancy.
