SIN DO 20th Anniversary Edition, January 15-18, 2021

It's time to think about the future and what 2021 will be instead of this 2020 nonsense. Barring a mandatory 2 week mandatory quarantine on arrival, SIN DO 2021 is on.

Hmmm..... Assuming I can get back in this would be very interesting to join. The event has been a long and wonderful one, and is now the longest running DO of all. I truly hope it can happen.

I've been to eight in a row, and I'd certainly like to make it in 2021 for nine in a row. I'll certainly go if I can!

I will attend if it is deemed safe and I can also go back to Bangkok. Fingers and toes crossed.

Not sure if any way to leverage this, but looks like a good deal if you like Gardens by the Bay. https://theshutterwhale.com/blog/202...-february-2021

I'm very said to say it, but after attending 8 SIN DO in a row, I'm going to have to bow out this year due to the global pandemic. I look forward to attending again and starting a new streak in 2022.

Those who are already in Singapore & out of quarantine can meet up . As of now , only groups of 8 are allowed to gather . So at restaurants , no mingling between tables . Restaurants are very full , think a significant portion of travel funds have been channeled to meals out ! But sure something can be arranged given a few days notice

Doubt bschaff1 is making it though unless we can do a hybrid live & Zoom Do ?? We will not be able to physically meet up with those in quarantine like those arriving even today let alone on 14 January !

I very much hope that some form of the Do can occur even if with residents and other post-quarantine allowed visitors. This is the longest running Do on FT and when I started it in 2002 I had no idea it would go so strong for so long. The tireless efforts of the folks who have taken up the mantle of running it are the reason it has lasted. Although it will be a very different event this year, if it can happen in some form it will be bale to maintain the title of longest running Do.

SIN DO, you've got this :-)

mjm , glad you had the foresight to inaugurate this first international Do !
Are you in lockdown ? Perhaps one or many of you who have been enjoying past SIN DOs will chime in and if someone arranges a Zoom conference for this ?

For a start , will reserve a table for 8 of us next Friday , FS Lounge , 5 . 30 pm , 15 January .
Are there 8 who are or will be roaming freely in Singapore by 14 January & should not be jet lagging by our cocktail ?!
