"Singa Pura" by Christian Julianna C. Laxamana

Since I was a kid, I really want to go to Singapore because come to think of it. It was finest country that could ever think of. Well maybe for me it is. Singapore is often referred as Lion City because it came from the word ‘Singa Pura’ which means Lion City in Sanskrit.

 Singapore’s trademark is their cleanliness and their low crime rate. So imagine that your whole country is very disciplined and well respect. Everyday you’ll wake up in a perfectly neat roads and going home late without even worrying about the thieves that might run into you and snatch out everything or even the burglars that hides from the bushes watching your home every single night. We don’t want that to happen and most importantly Singapore’s government don’t want any nasty things to happen. Singapore is maintaining there well build reputation.

Some said that the culture of Singapore is a combination of Asian and European. Influenced by South Asian, Malay, East Asian and Eurasian cultures that’s why Singapore’s culture is rich in Asian culture with a twist. Singapore has a rich heritage in creative writing in the Malay, English, Chinese, Tamil and other languages. Since Singapore is a multi-racial country, it celebrates various holidays like Chinese New Year, Buddhist Vesak Day, Muslim Eid ul-Fitr. Many Singaporeans, are bilingual. Most speak Singaporean English and another language, most commonly Mandarin, Malay, Tamil or Singapore Colloquial English.

I will give you tips if you’re already planning on booking a flight to Singapore. Do not litter. That’s the first one. Singapore is very strict with littering that’s why their country is known as the cleanest one in Asia. Second, no bubblegum. So if you’re a bubblegum fanatic then this is not your lucky day or might as well don’t bring any bubblegum or else you’ll end up in jail or something. Third, no smoking or else, 1000 Singaporean money will be taken away from you. And lastly no spitting. Well obviously devils are the only one are doing this I mean grow up. Spitting isn’t cool in your information.
