What can you get with a $100 budget in Singapore versus Malaysia? Ghib Ojisan finds out

Singaporeans tend to travel to Malaysia for short getaways because it's nearby and usually more affordable.In a YouTube video on Monday , Singapore-based Japanese content creator Ghib Ojisan compared the prices of food, attractions and shopping in Malacca and Singapore to see how they matched up.

"I think I would expect to pay around $15 or $20 in Singapore, so around double. Great value! I love this cafe," Ghib Ojisan remarked."I'm very scared because recently, it seems like F&B restaurants and cafes are super expensive," he admitted to his viewers."Surprisingly cheap for the location," Ghib Ojisan said and added that he had expected to pay $30.There, they ordered the assam laksa and chendol .Here, they got ordered the Wagyu Rurofan for $21.

"We got the mango sticky rice because it's my wife's favourite and it's important to get what your wife wants," Ghib Ojisan said humorously. On hindsight, Ghib Ojisan realised that the lion potted plant may have been a silly purchase as it was quite expensive."I think the price we spent doesn't really represent Singapore because the cafe turned out to be very affordable and for dinner, we only ate pau. That's how we kept it affordable," Ghib Ojisan also pointed out."I feel like this is so value for money [in Malaysia]," concluded Ghib Ojisan.
