Yesterday, my cousin sent me a message about his homework on social studies - a 150 word essay describing Singapore.
I'm too busy right now, preoccupied with things such as managing my Internet Cafe, studying Teradata architecture, and playing Starcraft II. But thinking that I was the best option that my cousin has in that assignment - I told him okay, I'll send him the essay by today.
And here I am in my blog space to write just about that.
Singapore is a very small country. It's one of the only 3 countries considered to be a sovereign city-state, others being the Vatican and Monaco. Popular for it's ban on chewing gums, Singapore is widely known for its very strict laws and policies concerning lifestyle, thus, making an impression that living in this country would make you feel very restricted. But such is life, you win some you lose some. If you look more deeply into Singapore's lifestyle and culture, there's more to it than the fines and restrictions. Singapore is a haven for people who want to live a peaceful life. Its crime rate is considered one of the lowest in the world. Sitting as the primary financial hub in South East Asia, Singapore has also been considered as one of the top places that expatriates would love to work in. Aside from a very competitive salary, an employee would also enjoy the day-to-day travel - well timed trains, accessible bus stops, numerous taxi cabs, and big expressways, one can exactly plan and schedule his travel time around the city-state. Working on to also be the primary IT hub in South East Asia, Singapore is also greatly focused on technology. Its mobile networks are world-class and wi-fi hot spots can almost be seen anywhere. You can basically stay connected all the time, anywhere and everywhere. There's so much more to this country other than feeling restricted and a simple essay won't do justice to cover them all. But if you want peace, convenience, money and technology - Singapore has to be your top destination.
