Singapore facts
& history in brief
I visited Singapore in 1978 for the first time
on our way to and from Europe with my daughter Sarolta.
Singapore was a very different place in those days in
retrospect and a real tourist attraction.
Since those days Singapore under went radical changes
developing as a dynamic business centre in South-east
Asia.
My wife Hui Chin came from Singapore and my relation
with the city changed, understandably.
Most of the times travel from or coming back to New
Zealand involves a stopover or two in Singapore, especially
to Europe and most parts of Asia.
Singapore is a beautiful, rapidly developing place.
I've witnessed it's development over the years.
Sure is a hot place.
In 2004 on our way to Europe and Africa Hui Chin
and I had time-out in Singapore going and coming back.
I had two digital cameras and spent some time exploring
the rapidly changing city with many landmark buildings,
monuments and other atractions.
I like Metros. In Singapore they are called MRT (I think
it stands for Mass Rapid Transport -
Do not quote me on this, though).
