'Chuka, chuka, chuka." Gone are the days when people made their own garments, but sewing machines still hum from a narrow corner of an old shophouse. Stacks of different clothes and mannequins take up space on the ground floor. Staff cut fabric, engrave names and sew white uniforms in an assembly line. Aunt Wan graces them with buttonholes, producing hundreds of hospital gowns for doctors in Isan.

Though one is spoilt for hotel choices in Singapore, Andaz is a great hotel to begin my post-Covid sojourn in the island-nation, in the heart of the Lion City.
