Rules are clearly laid out and are enforced. I have even flown in legal areas and been told by security personnel to land the drone. That said, there are some nice spots that can be captured legally so it's worth bringing the drone.

Here's a map of where you can/can't

The Map is from CAAS and you can find it here; I made a more detailed post earlier that covers all use cases as it gets more complicated when you seek selling any of your footage - hope this help Feel free to ask if you remain unsure about something.

Singapore is a small place with lots of military airfields (especially north).

Rules ARE enforced strictly and being a foreigner is no defence.

That said there are some good places to fly with good views of the city. The barrage is very popular (look out for kites though).

I thought Sentosa was out of bounds but the map doesn't seem to say so. Same for lots of parks, botanic etc.
