Today that old world Asian rickshaw image is gone and a world
class modern city has grown up in its place. With spotless
clean streets, and the look of other first class cities
Singapore has grown and changed.
Singapore this diamond-shaped island between

aviation hub, and shopping district. It appears shockingly
modern and anonymous, but this is an undeniably Asian city,
and cosmopolitan home to Chinese, Malay, Indian, Arab and
Eurasian diversity. From its humble beginnings, Singapore is
now a living testament to traditional and modern culture, set
against the backdrop of unique, tranquil sceneries and cutting
edge technology.
