kodakara jimaIra’s Singaporean family suggested that we stay overnight.
I managed to avoid Agoda’s trap of “steering customers toward expensive rooms” and made a reservation at the lowest price, but in the end, I canceled it. A day trip was enough.
The hotel’s breakfast has a terrible reputation.
Separately, the hotel roof had not been cleaned at all, giving it an unclean impression. Looking at the roof alone, I thought it was a ruin.

There was a man who appeared to be fishing with a dragnet in the sea. I didn’t talk to him because he didn’t seem to understand English. If this were Japan, I would definitely have talked to him. Ira wants to know about the daily lives and folklore of the local people.
suwanose jimaIt’s an artificial island, so it doesn’t have much history.
The Chinese developer angered the Singaporean government by developing the island without reporting it to Singapore.
I went to see it, and although it could be called a ghost town, there were several hundred people living there. It’s already 2025.
Everything except the hotel was clean. Only the hotel seemed unkempt.
If you’re staying overnight, consider a private home!
I’ll write about this in another article, but the private lodging is located inside a building that is off-limits to the public, and it’s an apartment building where workers live, so it’s interesting. The hotel has a lobby and other areas that are open to the public, and it’s quite visible from the outside, so it felt like a spoiler, or rather, like “I saw it. The end.” I’ll post a video next week.
