Any comments or views will be highly appreciated and helpful.
Thanks.
Well...I think it's just the right time to go on a vacation. See, when you convert from US dollar to SGD, the value should go up, so...it means you can buy more for less. i was also given into the thinking that tourism might be a bit on the downside, but then when I used some statistics to draw out the actual figures, the result was a bit on the positive side.
1. Flight expenses will be a bit high
2. On the other hand, Hotel reservation will be cheap
3. Dollar conversion to other currencies will see a benefit for those using dollar.
4. Lastly, when you minds says "TRAVEL"....go out and start off.
Regards.
