Why don't we ever hear about singapore

One of the safest, cleanest, least corrupt and most economically viable cities in the world. One of the most business friendly cities in the world. Where East and West meet. Looks like there's a ton of stuff to do. The only bad stuff I've heard about the city has to do with their government openess and draconian treatment for those that break the law but that certainly wouldn't come int play as a tourist. Why don't we ever hear about it. The cost of the flight is about the same as to London too and there's about a million foreigners who live there so people wouldn't be too out of place.

Knew a guy who lived there for a little bit.
He said it was absolutely incredible.

Too many lady-men. Or maybe that's Thailand I'm not sure, but either way, gross.

I've been a handful of times and it is a great city. However, for American tourists it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to visit unless you either live in Asia or are doing a multi-country trip. There's a lot more to see and do in neighboring countries.

Singapore is a law and order nanny-state. It's certainly not even close to having the most freedom. They censor even regular American TV shows, for example. The freedom is for the companies.
Having said that, Anthony Bourdain did a lay-over there and it looked pretty interesting at least culturally and food-wise. If I'm traveling that far I'm going to Tokyo, Seoul, New Zealand, Australia, etc.

I found it very boring.

Singapore makes me think of caning and that's it. There's nothing else offhand that attracts me.

As someone who spent last week in Singapore it is an incredible city-state. Especially considering they were a 3rd world part of Malaysia and only became an independent nation in 1965.
It is a great city. I went to Phuket Thailand this past weekend and that was more fun. Singapore is like Asia light...a little too sterile and expensive for me to feel a sense of adventure. There are some amazing sights in Singapore though.

Been there a few times for work. It is a fun city but very expensive. I compare it to an Asian New York City.
Vacation wise there really isn't much to see other than shopping and maybe China and Indian town. Neighboring countries have nicer beaches and historical spots.
