In today's travel vlog, I explore a side of Singapore that many don’t see. While known as one of the most progressive countries in the world, Singapore also has a hidden reality that contrasts the polished image. I uncover the darker aspects of this city-state, delving into the world of gangs, human trafficking, illegal businesses, and the poverty that exists beneath the surface.

Through interviews with locals and firsthand experiences, I reveal the struggles and challenges faced by those living on the margins. From the impact of illegal businesses to the harsh realities of human trafficking, this video offers a deeper look into the lives of people often overlooked in discussions about Singapore's success.

Don't miss this eye-opening journey into the real-life stories that aren't often told about Singapore. If you found this exploration insightful, make sure to subscribe to my channel for more travel vlogs and interviews that expose the hidden sides of places around the world!

WHO AM I? My name is Shota and I'm a traveler and van conversion enthusiast. When I was 19, I left Japan and spent nine years exploring different countries and immersing myself in diverse cultures. In the past three years, I've been sharing my adventures in Japan through my YouTube channel, showcasing the lesser-known sides of the country and vanlife travel experience. When I'm not busy converting vans and ex-Japanese police buses into campervans, I'm back on the road, traveling the world and sharing my journey with others. My ultimate goal is to inspire others to embrace the diversity and vastness of the world around them.
