Bought a pack of 2 [Taiyo](http://www.taiyo.com.sg/) 3-Pin Plug Adapters from Challenger at Funan for S$14.90 (after 10% member’s discount is S$13.41). I like it because it has individual switch to control power to each of the 3 3-pin sockets.

I find it weird that some countries do not have the concept of switching off an individual switch on a power strip but rather leaving all the switches always on, if you look at [Belkin Surge Protectors](http://www.belkin.com/sg/IWCatSectionView.process?Section_Id=207534), there is no on/off switch available.
