Urgent Q: Gift from Singapore

[rubric]

I need to get an acquaintance a Thank You gift. Am thinking of getting her something that 'represents' Singapore or something uniquely Singaporean. Other than foodstuffs, orchids and Tiger Balm, what can I get? Any ideas? TIA.

What's that? Queue? What about something I can package and bring on a plane? ;p

Sarong Kebaya? The type that the Singapore Girl wears.

That's a good idea, berryhappy! Where can I get the sarong skirt without being ripped off? :dunno:

why not take a photo of a singapore scene and give that to her? It's singaporean, unique and comes from you exclusively.

A friend told me he was able to buy it at the duty-free shops after check-in, before the flight, at the airport. Have to ask around where it is sold 'cos may not be easy to find. Maybe you need to get a backup gift just in case. Not sure how much it cost though. good luck!
