Let me compare Plaza Singapura to a few other malls.
AIRPORT & NEARBY
CHANGI CITY POINT adjoining the MRT, one train stop from Changi airport contains
BATA shoes
CLARKS shoes
DAISO Japanese bargain store
MARKS (small, mainly food)
VALU DOLLAR (opposite Daiso) has suitcases on wheels, lots of chocolates and cleaning materials, small stationery
CENTRAL
ORCHARD ROAD
ION Mall
Positives
ION is one of the most central. Great number of stores. Access from MRT Orchard (south side exit). Good when it rains.
Neutral or negative
But a claustrophobic maze. I would hate to try to get out in a fire. I always get lost.
Contains a DAISO.
SINGAPURA PLAZA
Contains Daiso, Spotlight, Best, Starbucks
SUBURBAN
BUKIT PANJANG
Bukit Panjang Plaza, (Bukit Panjang MRT)
Fairprice supermarket
Small Japan Home
Hillion Mall, (Bukit Panjang MRT)
Misses the anchor and opportunity of a department store. I remember when it was being built and you went from tiny corner shop to another and wondered when a proper shop would open.
