SITEX 2011 field visit

Beating the crowds to Singapore EXPO

SITEX 2011 @ Singapore EXPO from 24 - 27 November

SITEX 2011 @ Singapore EXPO from 24 - 27 November

Barely back from one week in KL, I trundled down to Singapore EXPO to get that replacement printer.

First off, I nearly drove to Suntec City, before remembering that SITEX was the only one of the four annual IT expositions held in Singapore EXPO.

SITEX 2011 @ Singapore EXPO from 24 - 27 November
On the way there, the radio was warning of traffic build-up at Simei. Fortunately, the TomTom VIA 280 GPS recommended a route that brought me to the car parks behind the Singapore EXPO, where there was no jam and plenty of lots.

I’d always parked in the car parks at the front of Singapore EXPO and never realized there was this big car park on the other side.

At any rate, I got what I needed and got out before it became really crowded.
