One of the most popular bus routes in Singapore, Service 190, which provides fast and direct link between Choa Chu Kang, Bukit Panjang, Orchard Road and ...
I think the '90s and the early '00s were great decades for buses. O405s,
B10Ms, Super Olympians, and N113CRBs still roamed the roads of Singapore,
and bendy buses were first introduced (1996).
I was born in 1995 when this video was taken at Ang Mo Kio area where my
school is. These are the old SBS Transit buses passing by where AMK Hub
currently sits. The new interchange (air-conditioned) was opened 12 years
later in 2007 by PM Lee Hsien Loong.

Singapore Changi Airport (IATA: SIN, ICAO: WSSS), Changi International
Airport, or simply Changi Airport, is the main airport in Singapore. A
major aviation hub in Southeast Asia, it is about 17.2 km (10.7 mi)
northeast[4] from the commercial centre in Changi, on a 13 square
kilometres (3,200 acres) site.
The airport, operated by the Changi Airport Group, is the home base of
Singapore Airlines, Singapore Airlines Cargo, SilkAir, AirAsia, Scoot,[5]
Tigerair, Jetstar Asia Airways, and Valuair. As of May 2013, Changi Airport
serves more than 100 airlines operating 6,400 weekly flights connecting
Singapore to over 250 cities in about 60 countries and territories
worldwide.[6] Until 30 March 2013, the airport served as a secondary hub
for Qantas, which used Singapore as the main stopover point for flights on
the Kangaroo Route between Australia and Europe. Qantas was the largest
foreign airline to operate from the airport, with over two million
passengers annually. An important contributor to the economy of Singapore,
more than 28,000 people are employed at the airport, which accounts for
over S$4.5 billion in output.
Changi Airport has three passenger terminals with a total annual handling
capacity of 66 million passengers. Terminal 1 opened in 1981, followed by
Terminal 2 in 1990 and Terminal 3 in 2008. The Budget Terminal, opened on
26 March 2006 and closed on 25 September 2012, will make way for Terminal 4
which will be ready by 2017.[7]
In 2013, the airport handled 53.1 million passengers, a 5% increase over
the previous year. This made it the fifth busiest airport by international
passenger traffic in the world[8] and the second busiest in Asia by
international passenger traffic in 2012. The airport registered 4.92
million passengermovements in December 2012, a growth of 8.6% year-on-year.
Changi's daily record was broken on 21 December 2013, the Saturday before
Christmas Day, with 191,800 passengers passing through the 24 hours. In
addition to being an important passenger hub, the airport is one of the
busiest cargo airports in the world, handling 1.85 million tonnes of cargo
in 2013. The total number of commercial aircraft movements was 343,800 in
2012.[9]
The airport has won over 430 awards since 1981, including 30 'Best' awards
in 2012. Changi Airport's efforts to counter the onset of age include
periodic physical upgrades to its existing terminals and building new
facilities
