Our Vision: The Singapore Club in Australia

Our Vision: The Singapore Club in Australia

Hi all, we have received some more questions about why we are doing this, we have received many encouraging support from fellow Singaporeans who share our vision and we really look forward to one day we can have our own club house. Which is simply named, the Singapore Club in Australia

Many a times we have drive along the congested and  haphazardly planned streets of Sydney, we often have to passed by many clubhouses from many different communities in Sydney, they includes the Russian, Croatian, Austrians, Slovenians,etc. Even our northerly neighbour, Malaysia has something called Malaysian Hall which provides cheap accommodation for Malaysian students in Sydney! So where is our Singapore Club house??

We hope to provide a meet up place or a club house for all Singaporeans, ex Singaporeans, expatriates or ang moh who has worked in Singapore before but came back to Australia.

In order to achieve this.. We hope to have a physical club house or at least a kopitiam which we can call our own... where anyone can turn up any time to talk cock or have a quick meal or beer or a  nice cup of kopi-o.

The club will have the following...

Dining facilities in the club:

Bar

In this club house, there's a fully stocked and licenced bar which will serve your typically tiger beer on draft, Tsingdao beer for uncles or cocktails for our younger ones.

Singapore Restaurant:

Since we are in Australia, typical Singaporean food, that taste like Singaporean real Singapore food like Laksa, Hainanese chicken rice, are hard to find. Most of them have been customised to Australian taste buds. For E.g. the Laksa in Australia are typically "Curry" noodles... or do not have the "Laksa" taste that we are all so familiar with.

Compiling the picture has made me hungry and I am sure without naming the food above you would  know exactly what they are!

This restaurant will also be a showcase for Singaporean food and will always welcome everyone including local aussies.

We might be able to hold some entertainment like inviting your favourite pop star to perform in our restaurant!

Kopitiam:

Although we like good Australian coffee from  Gloria Jeans, or your local coffee stall outside your office etc, some of us prefer our favourite cup of kopi-o, We hope to recreate a true "kopitiam" in our clubhouse, with food served like laksa, prawn mee, hainanese chicken rie.


Services for new migrants in the club

With this physically club house, we will have established our presence and we will be able to do what we are currently doing and will be able to do much more!
We hope to provide a one stop service for everyone which may include the following

• The club house might also be able to offer job opportunity for newly migrants in search for a job 
• JP services for certifying documents if there is a need
• Temporary accommodation for students who are in need of a night's accom due to unforeseen circumstances.

Services for Singaporeans living in Sydney

• Meet up place for all Singaporeans in Australia
• Mahjong sessions
• Cooking lessons
• Singles meet up and much more
• Mother Tongue language classes

Have we forgotten other Singaporeans in Other states of Australia? - NO!
We have not forgotten you.. we would like to thank you for your support since day one and  we hope to bring this club house to your state in the near future too


We hope you share our vision, and hopefully one day, we will achieve our goal. Thanks everyone for your support and encouragement so far..
