Two samsters were travelling with me and they too had breezed thru the ICA without fanfare...

the exchange rate we got...11 Oct - 16,850....14 Oct - 16,880...
Well, my last trip to HCM, the CB officer didn't even take my passport or look at me, just asked for RETURN ticket... So i just show to him with a smile (that says I know what you are up to lah..).

There are 2 things:
1. Do not choose the shortest cue or that is manned by an old CB faced male officer.

2. Get ur RETUN ticket ready, just in case. If u do not buy one, at least edit from one of the used tickets and print.

If u didn't do 1 and 2 and that cb officer asked for RETURN ticket, u always can say want to talk to Singapore Embassy about ticket.
