>> If you get the $30 Singapore SIM, it includes 90 mins of calls to the US, so perhaps your wife could send you a message using Signal or Whatsapp, and you could call her back.  That's what I usually do.

Right.  $15 for 7 days, $30 for 12 days.  The $15 card is $12 if you 
preorder on their web site and pick it up at the airport.

If you don't already have an ezlink card, which you will want to take the 
train from the airport to the hotel, the $18 card ($15 if you preorder) 
which is also an ezlink card looks like a reasonable deal.

Please consider the environment before reading this e-mail. https://jl.ly

PS: yet another option for calls to and from the US is to get a Google 
Voice numebr and tie it to the Hangouts and Hangouts Dialer app, which use 
the 100GB of data those SIMs provide.
