Wild Singapore

The latest news that a programme to stop mosquitos carrying Dengue fever is in full swing has set me thinking about all the good times we have had in Singapore. Travel brochures praise the malls, beautiful boulevards and warm welcome the country offers. I spend time looking at photos of the wilder areas that are within a short taxi or bus ride from the city centre.

Sungei Buloh is one of the most relaxing places for a walk.
You always recognise tourists in such places. They are, like me, wearing stout boots as a deterrent to snakes and crocodiles. And they reek of insecticide.
Really, it's a wild world.
