Forum: Offer discounts for local attractions during school holiday period

I just visited Rainforest Wild Asia in Mandai and was impressed by how beautifully designed it is. However, I was surprised and saddened to see how empty it was. Given that school holidays had begun, I expected more families to be enjoying the experience.

I wonder if the ticket prices were the main deterrent. With school holidays under way, I would like to suggest that local attractions such as the Singapore Zoo consider offering discounted entry for children and their accompanying parents.

Many Singaporean families may not have the means to travel abroad despite our strong currency. Local attractions present a valuable opportunity for these families to bond and create memories with their children within the country. By offering discounts, we can encourage more families to explore and appreciate our local treasures.

Let’s make local attractions more accessible and enjoyable for families.
