The Embassy of Singapore in Tokyo held a New Year’s event for Singaporean Residents in Japan recently at the Hotel New Otani. It was fun to gather with fellow Singaporeans and bond over local foods such as Beef Rendang and Bak Kut Teh. It was also surprisingly homey to hear so much Singlish in one room in Tokyo. :) During the National Day celebrations, Merlion statues and Singapore flags were placed everywhere. Also had the opportunity to meet the current Ambassador of Singapore to Tokyo and his wife.
