Still deciding on whether or not you should make your way to Singapore in about 10 days for Future Music Festival Asia (FMFA) 2015? Are Darude, Example, and Ferry Corsten simply ain’t enough to entice you to go because the thought of having to spend a lot more moolah this time around kinda freaks you out?

Fret not! With this handy “jimatkan wang” guide, you will be able to afford partying it up in Singapore even if you’re on a shoestring budget.

1. Travel

For this year’s festival, official transport partners will provide free bus trips to and fro Singapore if you’ve purchased the FMFA 2015 tickets with them. However, this offer is only reliable for partygoers that are planning to go for both days (2-Day Weekend Pass) of FMFA 2015 and the date of departure has been set by the organiser.

Post by Catchthatbus.

You want, you like? Buy the FMFA 2015 tickets and claim your FREE transportation via this website.

On the other hand, there are other options for partygoers that want a little privacy for their trip and we understand that not a lot of people can take long bus rides with strangers. Especially if you’re not traveling with a big group of friends, which would make it more awkward.

Getting To FMFA 2015

So, below are other options for getting to Singapore:

Bus

  1. Bus from KUL (TBS), RM50 – 60
  2. Bus From SGP (Little India), RM66 – 79 (SGD25 – 30)

*Bus tickets purchased from Singapore must be paid in SGD

Flight

(Depart 13th March , Return 15th March)

  1. AirAsia RM174++
  2. Singapore Airline RM603++
  3. Tiger Air RM172++
  4. Fire Fly RM336++

2. Internet access

Instagram Facebook Addiction

It’s important that no matter where we go, we always keep in touch with our families, friends, and loved ones – what more in Singapore? Plus, living a day without internet access can be suffocating and you need to stay connected to keep tabs on where your friends are during the party.

Besides, wouldn’t you also want to Instagram as many party/festival shots as possible while you’re there? Exactly!

So here are a few options that offer the best deal for mobile data at the lowest price:
