SINGAPORE
Singapore was founded as a British colony in 1819. During World War II, Singapore was occupied by the Japanese. Singapore separated from Great Britain in 1963 and became an independent country in 1965. Singapore is an island country on the Asian continent. The country is in South East Asia. The country’s neighbors include Malaysia to the north and Indonesia to the south. A flight from Singapore to Tokyo takes 8 hours, 13 hours to London, England, 12.5 hours to New York, USA. The country lies 137 km or 85 miles north of the equator. Singapore is a city state which is connected via a bridge and a freeway to the mainland of Malaysia. The airport is in Changi. It is on a site which was reclaimed from the sea.
Singapore is not only one island! 63 islands belong to the city state around the Singapore coastline; most of these islands are inhabited. The largest island (after the main island) is Sentosa in the south of the main island. Sentosa Island has many resorts and family entertainment centres. Singapore comes from the Sanskrit name 'Singapura' which means 'lion city'. However, lions never lived in this region, but tigers! Until the 1930s, tigers could be found in the wild in Singapore, now you only can see one in the city's zoo. The national language of Singapore is Malay. Other official languages of Singapore are English, Mandarin and Tamil. English is the language of choice because it is the language that almost everyone in Singapore knows. 93 percent of adults can read.

When you are given a present in Singapore, receive it with both hands. Don't open the present straight away, it is polite to wait and to only open it later. Singapore is also commonly known as a "Garden City" or a "City in a Garden". It is because there are plants everywhere, making it look like a garden.
