There is absolutely nothing to worry about; I think the last political event resembling a riot was 3 people handing out political flyers. And no, it was nowhere near the airport.
Most importantly, how many cpm?
Or are you not doing it for the miles?

Strictly for the accomplishment and wanting sooooo bad to experience the new 'all business class' for 18 1/2 hrs. My wife thinks I'm silly for going for such a short amount of time
Anyone interested in hooking up for a Singapore Sling???? this Sunday morning

Worried about trouble from Bangkok spreading to Singopore....? Maybe a small, wee, little country like Malaysia could act as a buffer?????
If our friend does make the flight I suggest he watch "the air show" and study the geography. Now as for killing time in Singapore. Why travel all that way and miss a night at "orchard tower" or "brix"????

I know MR purists won't agree, but I think the OP is insane for being on the ground in Singapore only 5 hours, especially on a weekend, given all of the excellent hotels deals discussed on this and other forums.

If you have been keeping up with the world events and turmoil going on in Thailand right now, you would know what I am talking about. I'm not saying that it will 'spill over' into SIN...not very likely to happen...you just never know about some of the Asian countries. Think about the Koreas, for example.
