Singapore - The city of the Lion (Singha)

Singapore has  5 mill. inhabitants, of which  1,3 mill are foreigners. Of the 3,7 mill local people  77% are Chinese.  Their political system  seems like an enlightened one man (family) rule system, even  if they call it democracy.





 Singapore has become a very modern city, but it is hard to find an overall city-plan. They have put a little bit of everything all over the place. One of the most used crossroads – Orchard road  x Paterson road – has been provided with  underpasses, and if you go down there, it feels like you have entered a  5 storey shopping center  and it seems  like the underpass just disappeared in a confusing  labyrinth.
