Kway Chap also damn nice. Love it, though, Malaysia also has kway chap, it is more accessible in Singapore.
haha this episode so funny, dangerous yishun
Japanese but speaking like real Singaporeans. 👍
Im a 3rd gen Singaporean and ive NEVER heard of our people being against cold drinks/water OR ice in beverages. Its sooo hot here. We ALL drink cold stuff all the time.
3rd gen mixed race Singaporean here. I dont know ANY local born and bred here – Indian or other races – who say you cannot shower your young child!!! There's no reason to get naked and shower alongside ur kid. That just invites unnecessary questions from the kid of opposite gender. But any gender can shower their kid otherwise.
Yishun is not dangerous but has a lot of weird people. Unless you are born there, you wouldn’t want to move there. I think it rank near the bottom among all other estates.
Naomi is SUCH a vibe!!!! <3
Wah i wish i have japanese friends and talk japanese with. Im in my late 20s any japanese wanna make friends with me? I stay jurong 😂
😆😆
Who says Yishun is a 'dangerous' place leh?😆
If really 'dangerous', our former female President Halimah Yacob would not be 'born' from this area…😂
Maybe, some people are just jealous of this unique place where good food & friendly vibe can be found in this special place…❤😊😉
There’s nothing dangerous about that place. Lol 😂 Coming from America.
Wow,the jap.ladies speak english language, fluently
Yishun is a great place! I have stayed here for 4 over years. So convenient and good neighbours.
There is one in tekong island military training area
Japan 恶有恶报，如果不报，时辰未到 !
You say another word about Yishun being dangerous, the three aunties will slice you with their Katana😅
Jit Poon Lang! Long time no see! ….. you sabo Yishun! LOL!

Amazing video
So good to know
Ha, so cute. Welcome to Singapore. So happy that all of them blend in so well in the community. I am a Singaporean and used to lived in Toyko, Higashi Shinjuku, and love it when my neighbours smile and say Konichiwa to me when I go out to work. Miss those days.. 🙂
Konichiwa, I always feel intrigued by your amazing food & lifestyle videos, a few of my friends are staying at Yishun, it looks like an interesting neighbourhood. 😊
Zarah san looks abit like Japanese actress Takako Matsu.
These women dont know what real dangerous is. They need to go experience living in the west or South Africa, then they will understand what truly dangerous is.
I found one supposedly living in the Istana . She loves ❤️ everything pineapples 🍍.
Hi… Singaporean here… I was born in the 60s. Back in those days, I mean in the 60's & 70s. Yes, I would agree SG was dangerous e.g., lots of gangsters, kidnappings, extortions, gang clashes, gun crimes ETC it wasn't safe to go out at night. But by the 80s, every thing was very much under control in Singapore. Thanks to LKY. But now you guys "mentioned" Yishun is the most dangerous place in SG? Like how dangerous because I visit Yishun quite often… Why… Yishun is full of wild animals? Crimes? I think it's relatively safe in SG incl. Geylang. Come on… Anyway, no hard feelings… It's great to see you guys settling down in SG. Welcome to SG!
Omg can’t believe you were filming at my old house!! How do you find your experience in シンガポール?
Initially i was shock she’s trying to wash her handbag with the hot spring water😂. Thats an interesting water bucket 🛍️
I love seeing the cheery vibes from the ladies. Good job Ghib Ojisan for sharing this.
They are transformed to tipica singapore house wives😅
These ladies are so fun-loving and funny! Completely enjoyed watching them defending Yishun! P.S. I am Singaporean, and I also cannot understand why people don't drink cold/iced water. I can only drink iced water! LOL..
Northpoint mall is huge
Just a few weeks ago, My mom and I went to a neighbourhood hawker centre to eat. A Japanese couple was seated at The next table. My mom asked why were there Japanese here😅 funny. I told her now there are even Japanese hawkers so I guess we have to get used to Japanese living in our heartlands. Prior to this I also have a Japanese friend who worked here as a non expat. She also told me Singaporeans are very direct ppl…After some time she also adopt our direct communication style. There's a way to be direct yet not blunt or rude 😊
Very nice and heart warming. Thanks
👍 👍 👍
The way they talk, cannot even tell they are japanese already!
i love this!!!!!! greetings from yishun!
