"Xin Jia Po, Singapura, Singapore!" Singapore by A2002

Singapore Travel Guide: 13,344 reviews and 25,370 photos

Skyline of the central business district.

Clean and cosmopolitan city on a small "island" with rich and colourful cultures and people. Chinese, Malay and Indian are the 3 main ethnic group. If you want to try the food and see the cultures of Chinese, Malay and Indian, all at one place, Singapore is the place. Generally, Chinese can speak Mandarin, Malays can speak Malay, Indian can speak Tamil. And everybody can speak English fluently.

I am overseas when I found VT. I haven't got much chance to take pictures and write interesting stories and festivals of Singapore. I will certainly do that when I return. :-) However, I will try my best for now to show you the beauty of Singapore.

Singapore's Pledge

We, the citizens of Singapore
Pledge ourselves as one united people,
Regardless of race, language or religion,
To build a democratic society
Based on justice and equality
So as to achieve happiness, prosperity and
progress for our nation.

Children will be taught to cite the pledge and will recite it every morning during the assembly before classes start for the day.

Pros and Cons

Pros:Clean and safe city to explore on your own.
Cons:Relatively Expensive place to visit in Asia.
In a nutshell:A truly multi-cultural country and city with people living in harmony.
