The Beautiful and Progressive Singapore
January 3rd 2010 23:33
Singapore has always fascinated me. It's a very small country. From what I heard, it's only as big as the second largest city in the Philippines which is Cebu City, however, the country is one of the richests in Asia. It's technology is at par with other developed countries.
The city has very strict rules when it comes to cleanliness and violating these rules has corresponding penalties. Tourists and citizens alike are not aloud to spit, to loiter and to throw away waste in the streets even just candy wrappers. People are not also allowed to gather in public places without proper permit as this is illegal to them.
One might say that these rules are just too strict. However, these simple rules are what makes Singapore unique and progressive. The simple attitude of following simple rules is the beginning of something big. People have become disciplined. Singaporeans are also very hardworking. Well, it obviously shows. The country has become so progressive and one of the highly regarded countries in Asia and around the world.
