Being multi-cultured and multi-religion constitutes to the unique culture we have on Singapore. It is not surprising to find a temple and a mosque co-existing on the same road, as we respect each and every cultures and religions and we live together in harmony.
Singapore consists of a population of more than four million people, with Chinese making up the majority with a percentage as high as 75%, followed by Malays(14%), Indian(9%) and others(2%). Even though it is a Chinese dominated society, every citizen enjoys equal rights and freedom. Thus, we would celebrate all major festivals that each culture or religion has.
Besides being a multi-cultural country, we are also a country that has no natural resources to count on for economic survival. We have to rely heavily on trade and tourism to sustain the economic development for Singapore. Therefore, the government has been actively building world-class facilities and amenities to attract foreign countries, so as to make Singapore their travel destination for holding events and conventions.
In our Blog, we will be introducing and promoting some on-going events and traditional festivals that is unique and exclusive to Singapore. We hope that the information provided by us will be able to help you understand Singapore better.
Thank you for visiting! =)
