Its a very stupid and naive view to said Taylor Swift was force to hold her concert in Singapore.
She got money
She got her own private jet
She had a very successful tour in US
...
Wake up..Singapore has nothing here but talented peoples to make the business deal a successful one.

[lokechanmun]

Being a good neighbour doesn't mean that one should constantly dumbed down standards of excellence just to keep in step with the lazy, corrupt and incompetent.

Singapore has the means to negotiate a deal a year ago - well planned and executed. Well done to its government and huge congratulations to the people.

[stylerho]

This Thai PM was actually appointed in August 2023 whereas Singapore had already signed the so-called exclusive agreement in May 2023 - well before his time! He also uttered randomly that Singapore has granted US$2m-3m per show to win the contract (that is still not verified to date). Supposedly if the grant is true, so what? This is a competitive world and no one owes you a living. Willing buyer willing seller!
As for the Philippines official, suggest he wakes up and grows up. Be proactive in looking for business /investments globally and do good things for your own people, instead of whining when you lost. Just because you have no foresight and are unable to compete, you start blaming others for being efficient and visionary?

Title inappropriate.
TS chose SG for obvious reasons : safety, security, super infrastructure, good transportation access . I am glad SG was chosen as it gave me reasons to visit & attend the concert & see the beautiful city !

You know this video is BS when it creates sensational titles such as "FORCED". This video is making you think Singapore brought guns to the negotiating tables.

Based on my experience, these people who like to sensationalize everything are losers in their real work-life. No one wants to work with toxic people who exaggerate their achievements and roles. Absolutely no one

It's smart business acumen by both parties. Any proposal can be accepted or rejected. If the deal makes sense, then fair play to all. And Singapore is indeed the best option among all the choices.

[anjim]

So based on this theory of "stealing" the deal, Singapore would have been "stealing" every South-east Asia opportunity for many years by inviting Petrol Chemical plants, Global banks and Financial institutions, MNC manufacturing, and Retail chains to headquarters in Singapore.
Just because our neighbours have incompetence planning and ministry execution, does that mean we have to lower our standard to be considered "neighbourly" ?
Making such complains are like asking your competitors to slow down just because you cannot keep up the pace instead of training harder.

TS wasn’t forced she decided based on the exclusive deal with incentives offered to exclude other SEA countries. It’s a business decision for a win win outcome, no more no less.

[midknight]

Taylor was not forced to have that one stop concert in SG. She had a choice to say no if she wants. Lol

[lohti]

Safety for fans is main priority. Mainly are female fans. Next is accessibility of transport.
Fans should arrive on time with unrestricted transport. 50, 000 per night.

[chuaseahhui]

It is an insult to TS to say that she's forced to choose Singapore. Only fools can come to such conclusions, insulting the intelligence of TS and her manager.

[Ramy-qltr]

TS probably wanted to skip SE Asia entirely until Singapore convinced her that she has many adoring fans waiting for her presence.

[chrischow]

She is forced because there is no other options. Two Muslim countries and even Philippines do not have the venue for it. Thailand had cancel her concert once so in reality Singapore is her only option.

[lucif]

There isn't a need to force when Singapore is located ideally with good infrastructure and efficient transport system to host big events. Not to mention the safety and stability of the country. Anyone would have their first choice in Singapore as compared to its neighbours.

[dennisleong]

Singapore will not force anyone which he or she doesn’t like or force he or she to accept, this is not only entertainment but business

[sandralee]

whatever the undisclosed reasons, Taylor came and host her show’s successful and all fans had great time . thank you to the unseen people working behind the scene like SMRT staff … buses and transport staff … Airport staff … security and many more … F & B staff and mort importantly … hope fans didn’t leave rubbish behind let’s be grace towards all these hardworking people

[michaellee]

All these fingers pointing by S'pore's neighbours shows clearly one thing - This tiny island state better make sure that her defense capabilities are always one step ahead of the rest of the ASEAN countries. All of them are just waiting for an excuse to find fault with this little red dot. It's a wakeup call for S'pore's new generation of people. Singapore is vulnerable.

[kowjitbeow]

TS forced to choose Singapore, totally rubbish / garbage statement.
Is only commercial buy/sell deal !😊
