Sandeep G 1 Report post Posted June 28, 2007 This is the inaugral Previously, the Airshow in Singapore was "Asian Aerospace" - since moved to HK as of this year, and not to be left out of the circle, Singapore has begun this event - to outstage and outplay Asian Aerospace - believed to be the brainchild of the EDB??

Mohd Azizul Ramli 2 Report post Posted January 5, 2008 Since Malaysia is too ignorant about their 16 years old LIMA, Singapore (as always) has taken advantage of it by staging this event. Of course it is going to be very successful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LW Wong 0 Report post Posted January 7, 2008 have to think about accomodation and food samo..but i want to go... If you wanna save on accommodation, go in a group of 3-4, rent a HDB room/unit on a daily/weekly basis. The rental are from about $150 a week depending on location and number of people sharing. Or stay in a backpackers place for about $20 a night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
