I have mentioned that now there is no more free parking on Sundays and public holidays at the car-park at the Kreta Ayer People's Theatre as well as at nearby roads.
That Sunday I parked my car at Keong Siak Road. I displayed a parking coupon valid for one hour. Then I went to Kreta Ayer People's Theatre and after that I went to a shop at the ground floor of the nearby food centre to get something done. I came back and found a notice of a $20-fine on the windscreen. Because I was away for about 3 hours. I thought the traffic wardens wouldn't be so hardworking on a Sunday.
Driving to KAPT for an opera show is quite expensive. You have to park for more than 3 hours and then there is ERP charges and petrol cost. It is better to take public transport.
Our public transport system is good, comfortable and efficient.

I thought $20 at Keong Saik is cheap by today's standard... until I found out that you are referring to a parking fine.
Since we are on the topic of parking fees, you may want to note this if you go to the RWS - the open-air Seah Im Rd carpark next to food centre no longer has "$4 for whole day parking". It is now 50 cents for half an hour.
Cheap and good things are very rare. If you pay a cheap price probably you get "elongated... especially old and cracked ones."

Is it difficult to get a parking lot at the Chinatown Complex when you attend opera shows? Do you know of any other carparks if one does not mind the parking charges?
thank you
I have not parked at Chinatown Complex before. I think during evening peak hours especially on weekends quite a lot of people parked there and then go for dinner at the food centre.
There is one public carpark at the junction of Kreta Ayer Road and Neil Road.

I suggest you may consider Oriental Plaza if you don't mind the charges, or even People's Park Complex.

Thank you kind folks, now I know that there are alternative carparks.
