  Parsley is a type of herb but I think most just think they are veggies here.
  
  You can buy both from the supermarket
  
  Not sure about hokkien name but are you looking for parsley or chinese parsley? They look different

  Wan swee is also known as daun ketumbar or coriander leaves. It's not the same as parsley, which you can get cheaply at Shunfu Market (in my neighbourhood )

  You can but usually I just see chinese parsley from NTUC. They have labels so you won't go wrong
  
  Go to the baking section in NTUC. They should have them prepacked there. I know Cold Storage has but not sure about NTUC but they should have it.

  Seriously you should check out the herb section of NTUC and Giant. If my memory serves me correct, they do have it.
