API CHARITY GHOST TOUR
On 11 Nov 06, the Asia Paranormal Investigators (API), went on a round-island night tour for a good cause.
The tour is known as API Charity Ghost Tour. How did such a unique combination of social/society contribution and the paranormal came about?
Participants paid to go for a round-island tour and all monies collected will go to Assisi Hospice.
The monies collected was presented to Assisi Hospice during Club Youth Fest organised at Club MOMO.
The tour is a joint effort between the Asia Paranormal Investigators (API), a Paranormal Research-based Organisation set up by Charles Goh, and Dotbox, a Not-For-Profit Social Enterprise set up by 9 enthusiastic students of Republic Polytechnic, to raise funds for the Assisi Home & Hospice, a Home that takes care of terminally ill cancer patients.

Under the guide of API Founder Charles Goh, 34 intrepid Explorers boarded the aircon coach at Newton Food Centre, and at 7:20pm, left Newton Food Centre, and so the journey began for the API Ghost Tour.
The API Ghost Tour belongs to a variety of themed Trails/Tours, presented in an interesting and unique way by Charles, API Founder and a Specialized Tourist Guide, & Raymond, API Webmaster and Historian. Participants will learn of the myths of abandoned places and the ancient practices that still remain in modern Singapore. The facts presented will give new insights, let Participants view things in a different light, and visit places unique in ancient practices before they fade away into Time or to the modernization of Singapore.
The API Ghost Tour is an expedition into the Urban Legends and Lost Heritage Landscape of Singapore. It is not a thrill seeking expedition with Participants going aimlessly exploring abandoned places in search of ghosts or spirits.
API hopes to discover more of the old world, discarded memories forgotten by a generation obsessed with money making, clubbing, good looks, monetary pursuit and corporate ladder climbing.
API seeks to preserve the true memories of people and places before they vanishes off the face of this planet. In Singapore , where the urban landscape is constantly changing, whether people travel from Point A to Point B only just to get to their point of destination.
After this Trail with API, Participants will wake up the next day knowing abit more about certain oddities in Singapore, and thus becoming less befuddled and mystified when they do visit those places 1 day.
