Many start up begin at homes. Now local
citizens can start their own business from their homes,
even HDB apartments so long as permission is obtained
from HDB or the URA.

For an overview of the policy, please
see here.
If you have an idea on what to do, please
proceed with all your energy and effort. If you have no
idea on what to do, you may want to consider getting into
business based on your:
- Hobby - you love flowers -
be a florist, flower arrangement,
- Interests - you love animals - be a pet shop owner,
grooming
- Skills - you can write well - be a copywriter, freelance
article writer
- Experience - you have been in the coffee trade for a
long time - open a cafe
The main thing to remember is to rely
more on your strengths than on your preferences, particularly
for your first business. As you gain experience doing
business, you can become more adventurous! Of course,
if you feel strongly against such an advice, take the
path less trodden! Good luck and best wishes!!
