05. In Singapore, locals dry their laundry on bamboo poles
Yes, it is true that in Singapore, it is common for locals to dry their laundry on bamboo poles. This traditional method of drying clothes has been used in Singapore for many years, and it is still widely used today, especially in older housing estates.
The use of bamboo poles for drying clothes is a practical and cost-effective solution in a country where space is limited and electricity is expensive. Many apartments in Singapore do not have access to outdoor space or have limited balcony space, so hanging clothes on bamboo poles outside the window is a common way to dry laundry.
