Singapore is like nowhere else on earth. Famous as the "Lion City", it lies at the focal point at age-old trading routes, where cultures and traditions have come together for almost 200 years. Singapore has created an enthralling mix of sights and sounds. Yet side by side with this heritage, skyscrapers reach towards a new century, symbols of a thriving business community based on information technology, an efficient workforce and a sophisticated infrastructure.
Singapore is a city that has its head in the future and its soul in the past. Today, the population approaching the 4 million mark had forges a single national identity, so much so that you are likely to hear someone regard himself as a Singaporean fist, before a Chinese, Malay, Indian or Eurasian. It is a place where a multi racial community lives, works and plays in harmony, each group adding their customs (and cuisine!) to a living archive of Asian history. True Asian colour!
