From now on I will bring a new story for you every Friday. I have travelled to so many countries and I want to share that experience with all of you.
As I have lived many years of my life in Singapore I would like to start from Singapore. But before sharing all my experiences regarding tourist places, lifestyle, food choices and everything I would like to give you a short introduction to this country.
In 1819, British statesman Stamford Raffles negotiated a treaty whereby Johor allowed the British to locate a trading port on the island, leading to the establishment of the crown colony of Singapore in 1819. During World War II, Singapore was conquered and occupied by the Japanese Empire from 1942 to 1945.
When the war ended, Singapore reverted to British control, with increasing levels of self-government being granted, culminating in Singapore merger with the federation of Malaysia in 1963.
However, social unrest and disputes, between Singapore and Malaysia ruling parties resulted in Singapore’s expulsion from Malaysia. Singapore became an independent republic on 9th August 1965
Singapore, officially the Republic of Singapore is a sovereign island city-state in maritime Southeast Asia.
Singapore 1900s
in the mid-1990s, Singapore had a weird reputation. On the one hand, it was a dream country for Western expatriates: developed, modern, clean, peaceful, English-speaking, with great housing and plenty of international restaurants—if you were living there for work, you were likely making serious bank. On the other, it was boring and repressive.
20 years later, however, tourism became a big business in Singapore.
Singapore has never tried to be something it’s not. It’s 278 square miles of shopping, eating, and relaxing place. The rest of Asia (and the world) have evolved in ways that make Singapore—respectable, comfy, colourful, tasty Singapore—stand out like it never used to.
Over 50 per cent of this island city is comprising of greenery, Singapore has some amazing tropical wilderness and nature-oriented attractions to be enjoyed by visitors.
So we will visit one place every Friday from now on.
Coming up next Friday …
Let us explore and enjoy Sentosa Island

First I would like to say sorry for the delayed reply. I am in the US right now for a few months and took a break for a couple of weeks.
Singapore is really a very nice place to live and I have lived there for so many years. You must visit whenever you are comfortable going there.
You will not feel the weather as bad as I felt it. I don’t like hot and humid weather so just for that one thing I don’t like Singapore.😊
Otherwise, food, sightseeing, and everything are very good there.
