We are thinking to travel to Hokkaido with our 2 kids in Dec... is it available to travel F&E or packaged tour?

Is it easy to travel by ourselves in Hokkaido? What about their local land tour?

Same here going there in Dec, F&E, prefer to go at our own pace with kiddos.
Winter package tour itself for 1 pax is S$4,000 and above.
Land Tour, you can look at HIS.

Sharing my encounter while sourcing hotels (Dec) in both Hokkaido and Tokyo.

The hotels (3 and 4*) are usually open for booking in about 6 months, so if you try to source now you can only find dates till Sep.
Send email directly to the hotel to ask for dates and the kids surcharges staying with parents.
Most kids stay free with parent (without extra bed), just need to pay for breakfast.
Some hotels charge JPY1,000 for 1 child.

Their beds are really small, 0.9m for single bed and 1.1m for twin bed, so are their rooms.
For family, good to take their 33-35sqm room and not the standard room of 18sqm or 25sqm.

Hi all I need urgent advise...I've been executive member for 11mths...my appeal for the letter is being rejected...may I know is there any method to appeal again? Since my service is only short of a month...can't they consider based on my active contribution as well as my effort n grant me the letter? I will definitely work harder moving forward.

Write to your MP direct, who is your last hope. If he/she knows you personally through the many grassroots events, that's even better. Their emails can be easily obtained @ http://www.parliament.gov.sg/list-of-current-mps. Cheers!

You must first consult your Chairman, he/she will have to write a recommendation letter justifying your contribution before it will be routed to your MP. Go thru a proper channel otherwise you might as well go to the meet the people session.

If you have difficulties asking your Chairman, u can ask the Constituency Manager.
