Description
Singapore is one of the world’s major commercial hubs, with the fourth-biggest financial center. Officially, the Republic of Singapore is a sovereign city-state and island country in Southeast Asia. It lies off the southern tip of the Malay Peninsula and is 137 kilometers north of the equator. Though physically small, Singapore is an economic giant. It has been Southeast Asia’s most modern city for over a century. The city blends Malay, Chinese, Arab, Indian, and English cultures and religions.
Established by Thomas Stamford Raffles as a trading post on January 29, 1819, the small sea town of Singapore soon attracted migrants and merchants from China, the Indian subcontinent, Indonesia, the Malay Peninsula, and the Middle East. Another remarkable aspect of Singapore is its diverse culinary scene. With a range of dining options from Peranakan to Chinese, Indian to Malay, fusion, and more, you will be spoilt for choice.
