In this video, Reanne and Ben put Singapore's reputation as the world's safest country to the test. They walk through the tourist-heavy Arab Street, then head to the notorious Gaylang red light district after dark—drawing constant comparisons to China, where they've traveled extensively. The couple notes that Singapore's safety isn't just about cameras; it's a system of severe fines (like $5,000 for selling sunglasses), strict laws against chewing gum and jaywalking, and a culture where shame on the family discourages crime. They highlight the absence of graffiti, litter, and homeless people, and praise the community policing system where locals act as first responders. After enjoying the Gardens by the Bay light show, they head to Gaylang, which feels edgier with adult shops, KTVs, and massage parlors, but still remarkably safe. They find a cheap, delicious Chinese restaurant, then show their budget £60 hotel room. Ultimately, they conclude that both Singapore and China are incredibly safe, though the reasons differ—China leans more on surveillance, while Singapore combines strict laws, high wages, and civic pride. The video ends with a teaser for their upcoming trip to Australia and more China content.
Join Reanne and Ben as they put Singapore's famous safety to the test—walking its most notorious district after dark. They compare strict laws, cameras, and cultural vibes to their extensive travels across China, uncovering surprising truths about what makes a country truly feel safe.

I think they're both really safe. We've been in China for a long time and tested it, and here in Singapore for two days, we had no problems.
What are the biggest fines for small crimes in Singapore?
They have a zero-tolerance policy. Minor offenses like smoking in a park can get you a $2,000 fine. Chewing gum is illegal, and eating on the metro is about $500.
What is the Gaylang area like?
It's a red light district and considered the most dangerous area in Singapore, but that mostly means pickpocketing or drunken fights, not violent crime.
